伊朗当局谴责法国的“双重标准”：自9月底法国高中生抗议活动爆发以来，德黑兰多次批评执法部门使用其认为的“不成比例武力”，并呼吁法国尊重“抗议自由”。今年1月，当伊朗当局暴力镇压伊朗国内的一波示威活动时，法国总统埃马纽埃尔·马克龙曾公开呼吁尊重和平抗议的权利。
Iranian authorities decried what they called France's "double standards": Since high school protests began in France at the end of September, Tehran has repeatedly criticized the use of what it considered "disproportionate force" by law enforcement and called on France to respect "freedom of protest." In January, when Iranian authorities violently suppressed a wave of demonstrations in Iran, French President Emmanuel Macron had publicly called for respect for the right to peaceful protest.
10月19日周一，在巴黎及其他法国城市经历了一个动荡的周末后，伊朗外交部长阿巴斯·阿拉格齐呼吁法国总统听取街头发出的诉求。“法国人民要求彻底变革，包括集会自由。请倾听法国的未来，总统先生，”他在社交媒体平台X上写道，毫无讽刺意味。今年1月，伊朗政权非但没有听取伊朗人的诉求，反而用暴力镇压了这场运动，由于长达数周的互联网封锁以及对受害者家属施加压力迫使其噤声，镇压的全部代价至今仍不清楚。
On Monday, October 19, after a weekend of unrest in Paris and other French cities, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghtchi called on the French president to heed the demands coming from the streets. "The French people demand wholesale change, including freedom of assembly. Listen to the future of France, Mr. President," he wrote without irony on the social media platform In January, far from listening to the demands of Iranians, the regime crushed the movement with violence, the full toll of which remains unclear due to weeks-long internet shutdowns and pressure to silence victims' families.
根据人权组织收集的证据，这场镇压——至今仍在以近乎每周处决的方式持续——是伊朗伊斯兰共和国历史上针对抗议者最血腥的一次镇压。
According to evidence gathered by human rights organizations, this crackdown – which continues with near-weekly executions – has been the bloodiest in the history of the Islamic Republic of Iran against protesters.
