Iran Accuses French Diplomats of Running Interference Operation
🕵️ PARIS — Iran naming France by name changes who owns the Western pressure campaign. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Tehran accusing French diplomats — not just "Western actors" — is a deliberate escalation of rhetoric toward Paris. France has quietly anchored EU coordination on Iran sanctions; being named as an interference operator gives Tehran grounds to expel staff, rupture the EU channel, and isolate any remaining diplomatic back-channel. Timing alongside Canadian sanctions tightening is not coincidental.
