EU lawmaker to Iran's regime: “Your time is up” | Eye for Iran | EP 92 |

"Your time is up.”

A senior European lawmaker from Malta delivers a direct message to Tehran on this episode of Eye for Iran. Daniel Attard — Member of the European Parliament and Vice-Chair of the European Parliament’s Delegation for Relations with Iran — calls for tougher action against the Islamic Republic following its deadly crackdown on protesters, urging Europe to expel Iranian diplomats, halt trade, and increase pressure on the regime while standing firmly with the Iranian people.

“The time for negotiation is over. We must match the courage of the people of Iran,” Attard tells Eye for Iran, arguing that the European Union must support Iran’s opposition — not its oppressors — and act when a regime turns its violence against its own citizens.

We then break down President Donald Trump’s State of the Union warning about Iran’s expanding ballistic missile program and the implications of ongoing Geneva talks. Joining the panel are Janatan Sayeh, Research Analyst at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD); Shayan Sami’i, national security analyst and former U.S. government appointee; and Shahram Kholdi, international security and law analyst and Middle East historian. The panel examines whether Washington’s shifting rhetoric signals a turning point in U.S. policy toward Iran.

Finally, we present our joint Iran International–Free Press investigation with Jay Solomon, investigative reporter at The Free Press, uncovering how the Islamic Republic built and spread a coordinated disinformation campaign blaming a CIA-Mossad conspiracy for what was in fact a homegrown uprising. Using digital forensic analysis and investigative reporting, the investigation traces how Tehran’s narrative spread globally and helped obscure accountability for the January massacre.
