.@CFR_org is scheduled to host #Iran's FM @JZarif for a virtual event next Tuesday. This comes just days after Iran tortured & executed popular wrestler #NavidAfkari over participating in a peaceful protest.
The event runs afoul of U.S. sanctions laws.

Disgusting!
CFR leaders will not heed to calls for the cancellation of their hosting of Zarif. "Canceling would establish a precedent & a standard that could preclude us hosting officials from a significant number of countries," they say in their justification of appeasing #Iran.

“... the inaction of the IOC is unacceptable. Iranian athletes should be allowed to compete under a neutral flag & should be protected. Sanctions must be directed against the regime & the political leadership. The Iranian Olympic Committee must also be suspended by the IOC."
