In a response to the European Union Parliament’s decision to consider a classification of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), as a terrorist organization, Iran says that they will “decisively counter” such actions and blames the EU and the West for sponsoring terrorist groups like Daesh (ISIS).

In a speech on Saturday, Iran’s Majlis (Parliament) Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf said, “If the European Parliament wants to close the window of logic and defend terrorism…Majlis is ready to firmly counter any action [against the IRGC]”, and went on:

“The West has supported and equipped the Daesh terrorist group, but it was the IRGC that fought terrorism and ended the presence of Daesh terrorists in the region”, Qalibaf said, according to the Iranian state owned news agency, PressTV.
