Iran and the European Union are seeking to formulate an economic package, so enemies are seeking to strain these relations, the former member of Iranian parliament, Hassan Ebrahimi told Trend.

Pointing to the impact of Denmark`s accusation against Iran in bilateral economic and political relations, he said that such allegations cannot create a gap in the relationship between two sides.

“According to the reports, the European Union and Iran are considering to create a package of economic measures to reduce the effects of the US sanctions. So Iran's enemies are seeking to undermine this process,” said Ebrahimi.

Plan to re-impose sanctions on Iran will fail, he said.

"It should not be forgotten that the United States is isolated in the area of ​​sanctions and cannot achieve the desired results. Now, with these failures, US seeks to strain Iran's relation with the EU," Ebrahimi said.

“Iran's foreign ministry should be vigilant in giving a convincing response to these attempts,” he pointed out.

Iran`s Ministry spokesman Bahram Ghasemi previously said the Danish ambassador to Iran was warned against "hasty and controversial actions" during the October 31 meeting, which was the day after the Danish security service accused Iran for planning to assassinate an Iranian Arab opposition leader.

Danish intelligence officials said on October 30 that a man with a Norwegian passport and Iranian background was being held after he was arrested in neighboring Sweden.

They said the individual was apprehended on October 21 under suspicion of helping to plot an attack on the leader of the Danish branch of the Arab Struggle Movement for the Liberation of al-Ahvaz (ASMLA), which is seeking a separate state for ethnic Arabs in the southwestern Iranian province of Khuzestan.
