Germany Tells Iran Regime to “Stop and Reverse” All Violations of Nuclear Deal Dear Reader, Due to the importance of the subject, we will republish this article Written by  Amir Taghati  on  08 July 2019 . Germany says it is "extremely concerned" about the Iranian regime’s announcement that it will break the limit on uranium enrichment set by the 2015 nuclear deal with world powers.

Earlier this month, the Iranian regime increased its stockpile of low-enriched uranium beyond the cap set by the deal. “We strongly urge Iran to stop and reverse all activities inconsistent with its commitments under the JCPoA,” the Foreign Ministry said.

70 Female Cyclists Arrested in Iran Written by  Mohammad Sadat Khansari  on  01 August 2019 . Seventy female cyclists were arrested in Tehran’s Vali-Asr Square for breaking the Regime’s mandatory hijab laws, according to Judiciary spokesman Gholam Hossein Ismaeli on Tuesday. He didn’t say anything about the timing of the arrests, only saying that the women had broken the rules of “chastity and hijab”. Previously, Massoumeh Ebtekar, a deputy in family and women’s affairs ministry, had earlier  said  that there were “no rules in Iran which could prevent women from riding bicycles”. Presumably, she meant that women would have to wear the mandatory dress code – a head-to-toe black veil called “chador” –while riding, which would be impossible. It should be noted that 70% of Iranian women do not believe in the forced veil, which is according to research done last July by the Office of Cultural Studies of the Research Center in the mullahs’ parliament.

Britain Tells Iran's Regime: There Will Be No Tanker Swap Written by  Shahriar Kia  on  02 August 2019 . Britain on Thursday ruled out exchanging an Iranian tanker detained by Gibraltar for a British-flagged tanker seized by Iran's regime in the Gulf. “We are not going to barter: if people or nations have detained UK-flagged illegally then the rule of law and rule of international law must be upheld,” Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said while on a trip to Bangkok, Reuters reported. “We are not going to barter a ship that was detained legally with a ship that was detained illegally: that’s not the way that Iran will come in from the cold,” he said. “So I am afraid some kind of barter or haggle or linkage is not on the table.” Tensions have spiked between the Iranian regime and Britain since after Iranian Revolutionary Guards illegally seized a British-flagged tanker last month.
