The Austrian research center said following the latest stances of European countries, it should be said that the European Union continues to stand in support of Iran, despite the US pressures.

The President of the United States Donald Trump is struggling to convince the European Union and prove that Iran is not a trusted ally and its missile tests can be a threat to the European Union and the Middle East; however, it has not been successful in that regard so far.

According to ManaWach, in support of Iran and in response to the tensions of the Trump government, three European countries created a financial mechanism at the last days of January, which could continue to engage in trade with Iran, regardless of the US sanctions.
