France Demands Immediate Release of Three French Nationals Held Hostage in Iran
Jan 10, 2025, 04:42 PM
France has summoned the Iranian ambassador to Paris to address the issue of three French nationals detained in Iran since 2022, whom the French Foreign Ministry refers to as 'hostages of the state of the Islamic Republic of Iran.' These individuals are Cécile Kohler, Jacques Paris, and a third person named Olivier. The ministry described their situation as 'unbearable,' citing 'undignified detention conditions' that, in some cases, 'constitute torture under international law.' France is demanding the immediate release of these individuals and has advised its citizens against traveling to Iran, recommending those already there to leave due to the risk of arbitrary arrest and detention.
