Question 40446 — foreign policy

Summary

Mr. Jean-Noël Barrot draws the attention of the Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs to the constant persecution since 1941 that the Bahai population in Iran and in particular the community of the village of Ivel have had to endure. This relentlessness marked by targeted assassinations, expulsions, destruction of their homes, kidnappings, limitations of rights and expropriations is only motivated by their religious affiliation. THE Tehran regime, through its jurisdictions, now seeks to expropriate the village residents of their agricultural land. Through this permanent oppression, all minorities are targeted. The confirmation by the Mazandaran Court of Appeal on October 13, 2020 of the decision legalizing the confiscation of “illegitimately obtained property” once again creates a direct threat to the existence of this population of 350,000 members. Today everything is done to prevent their survival and allow them a decent future. Thousands of them are deprived of education, no longer have access to their pensions and have no job prospects, their rights being limited. These persecutions and repeated human rights violations against Iranian Bahais are no longer sustainable. He would therefore like to question him on France's position and possible actions for the protection of this minority persecuted for its religious affiliation.
