Iran Summons French Ambassador Over Protest Crackdown
Original: Iran Summons French Ambassador Over Violent Protest Crackdown OH HOW THE TABLES HAVE TURNED Iran cited more than 5,000 a
Iran has summoned the French ambassador to protest France's crackdown on demonstrations, citing more than 5,000 arrests, reports of protesters being seriously injured or blinded, and allegations that police entered classrooms and beat students and teachers. Commentators highlighted the irony of Iran, itself accused of violently suppressing protests, condemning another government's treatment of demonstrators, with many noting what they called a reversal of roles between the two countries.
Why now: The irony of Iran, widely criticised for its own harsh treatment of protesters, accusing France of a violent crackdown is drawing attention and debate.
