France Demands Iran Release Detained French Couple
Couple held for three years as diplomatic tensions simmer
France has demanded the immediate release of a French couple imprisoned in Iran for three years, describing their continued detention as unjust and politically motivated.
Officials in Paris condemned Tehran’s use of foreign detainees as bargaining chips and called for international solidarity in pressuring Iran to free all wrongfully held foreign nationals.
The demand follows stalled negotiations over prisoner exchanges and worsening relations between Iran and Western powers.
