allegations that

behind an attempt to assassinate the Saudi ambassador to

and

Maja Kocijancic, a spokeswoman for EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton,
said the EU was in touch with U.S. authorities over the allegations, which she
said would represent a "major breach of international law."
"We are closely following the situation," she said, adding that if
Iran is found to have sponsored the assassination attempt, it would have
"serious international implications."
Separately Wednesday, the EU blacklisted 29 more Iranian officials because of
human rights abuses in the country.
