PARIS, Nov 14 (Reuters) - French President Emmanuel Macron said on Monday more targeted European Union sanctions on Iranian officials would be adopted and he left the door open to the bloc designating Iran's Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) a terrorist organisation. "We are several who are pushing for targeted sanctions especially on pasdaran (IRGC) and people in the regime," Macron told France Inter radio in an interview." When asked whether he would support designating the IRGC as a terrorist organisation, Macron said as things developed the question needed to be looked at.

"The grand children of the revolution are carrying out a revolution and are devouring it," Macron said when asked to qualify what was taking place in Iran. Ties between France and Iran have deteriorated in recent months as efforts to revive the nuclear talks, to which France is one of the parties, have stalled. "I don't think there will be new proposals which can be made right now [to save the nuclear deal]", he said. The EU, the United States, Canada and Britain have imposed sanctions on Iran. EU foreign ministers will impose new sanctions on Iran on Monday, diplomats and officials have said.

Macron said the crackdown by Iranian leaders would make it harder to reach agreement on reviving the 2015 nuclear deal, which would give Iran sanctions relief in exchange for curbs on its nuclear programme. "I don't think there will be new proposals which can be made right now to save the nuclear deal." Speaking after he met four Iranian women activists in Paris over the weekend, Macron said that more European Union sanctions would be adopted in reaction to Tehran's actions. Iranian leaders blame foreign enemies including the United States for what they call riots. In a letter published by Emtedad news website, some 2,300 graduated students of Amirkabir University in Tehran urged authorities to release students detained.

The government said it had requisitioned six workers at a TotalEnergies depot in Dunkirk, northern France, and would do the same at its Feyzin depot in the southeast this afternoon. The government has already requisitioned staff elsewhere, a move vehemently opposed by the CGT, which has called on other workers to join its protest. But even so, petrol supplies will take some time to get back to normal. Transport Minister Clement Beaune told France Inter radio that petrol stations might still have problems until next week, adding: "We're still struggling." According to government data, roughly one in three petrol stations has not been supplied normally in the last few days.

Regatul Unit se află într-o perioadă de tranziţie până la 31 decembrie 2020, timp în care va continua să aplice regulile europene. De partea sa, Uniunea Europeană doreşte ca Regatul Unit să rămână legat de forţa de muncă a blocului comunitar, de standardele sociale şi de mediu, ca şi de regulile privind ajutorul de stat. La rândul său, cancelarul federal german Angela Merkel a declarat că ar trebui să se facă orice pentru a se ajunge la un acord asupra relaţiilor comerciale între UE şi Regatul Unit. Pescuitul este una dintre principalele chestiuni asupra cărora Regatul Unit şi UE nu reuşesc să convină la negocierea unui acord post-Brexit. Regatul Unit, care a părăsit oficial Uniunea Europeană în 31 ianuarie 2020, va abandona definitiv piaţa unică şi Uniunea Vamală ale UE la 31 decembrie.
