Citing attack threat, #France bans Iranian #opposition rally -document

— "France has banned an upcoming Iranian opposition rally over the risk of an attack, according to a letter sent to the organisers and seen by Reuters, after the release of an Iranian diplomat convicted of masterminding a plot to bomb the group in 2018.

The ban comes as Western powers seek to defuse tensions with Iran and a few weeks after #Tehran released several Europeans from prison, including two French nationals. French President Emmanuel #Macron held a 90-minute call with Iranian President Ebrahim #Raisi on June 10.

The Paris-based National Council of Resistance of Iran ( #NCRI), political arm of the People's #Mujahideen Organisation of Iran ( #PMOI), has held frequent rallies in the French capital over the years, often attended by high profile former U.S., European and Arab officials critical of the Islamic Republic."
