France has intensified its call for the immediate release of Cecile Kohler and Jacques Paris, its citizens detained in Iran for over three years, condemning Tehran's charges as unfounded.
Amidst espionage accusations linked to Israel's Mossad, France's President Emmanuel Macron expressed strong condemnation, suggesting potential retaliatory measures. Iran's state media has yet to confirm such charges.
The French government views the detentions as aggressive provocations and highlights concerns about prisoners' conditions and legal representation, emphasizing its priority for swift resolution. Macron's administration remains firm against Iran's nuclear ambitions and detention of Europeans.
