Marc Henrichmann, the chairman of the German parliamentary commission responsible for overseeing secret services, warned on Sunday about the danger posed to Europe by “Iranian sleeper cells” on the continent, following the killing of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. “Retaliatory measures, by Iranian sleeper cells in Europe, cannot be ruled out,” stated the German official, according to Iran International.
Retaliatory measures, including those by Iranian sleeper cells in Europe, cannot be ruled out after American and Israeli attacks killed Iran’s supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, a prominent German parliamentarian said on Sunday.
“The Iranian regime has repeatedly demonstrated in the past that it carries out its terror beyond its own borders,” Marc Henrichmann stated.
Germany supports the US
The German government shares the US objective of ending Iran’s nuclear and ballistic programs, Chancellor Friedrich Merz declared on Sunday, but he also pointed out the existing risks, reports Agerpres.
“We share the US interest in seeing this regime of terror ended and the dangerous nuclear and ballistic armament stopped,” Merz told the press.
