PARIS: France supports a move led by Italy for the EU to list the Iran's Revolutionary Guards as a "terrorist organisation", the presidency said Wednesday, marking a shift in the French stance. France "supports the inclusion of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) on the European list of terrorist organisations," the Elysee said. It is already listed as a terror group by Australia, Canada and the United States but not yet by the EU or UK. Italy is to propose the move at a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Brussels on Thursday. France had widely been seen as reluctant to brand the IRGC as a terror group so its latest statement represents a turnaround by Paris ahead of the EU meeting.
