Mehrnews wrote last week that Iran’s ambassador to the Netherlands said that recently over 100 Dutch businessmen of Netherlands Iranian Business Association (NIBA) objected to the economic sanctions.
Tehran Times wrote September 4 that last Wednesday the NIBA organized a meeting where Dutch businessmen were informed about the new EU-sanctions imposed on Iran.
The NIBA was concerned that these sanctions would do more harm to Dutch trade and business than to Iran.
Nevertheless they understood the necessity to impose these sanctions as Iran violates international protocols on human rights and nuclear policies.
