Christian Science Monitor - The head of the Iranian opposition group in exile that supplied early intelligence on Iran's clandestine nuclear program says President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has engineered a clever disinformation campaign to convince foreign experts that Iran is eight to 10 years away from developing a nuclear bomb. But in fact, she says, the regime is less than two years away from producing such a weapon, as part of its plan to "create an Iranian empire" in the Middle East.

Maryam Rajavi:
- Iranian people welcome acknowledgment of terrorist nature and conduct of Iranian regime's Revolutionary Guard Corps, Qods Force and banks
- The move is a clear testament and an indispensable prelude to democratic change in Iran

Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian Resistance, said the Iranian people welcome the US government's official acknowledgment of the terrorist conduct of the Iranian regime's Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), the Qods Force, banks, Ministry of Defense and other entities as well as its leaders. She also described the move as an indispensable to thwart the export of terrorism and fundamentalism to the Middle East region, in particular the regime's meddling in Iraq and to prevent the regime from obtaining nuclear weapons.

In an interview with the BBC , World Network, on October 20, Hossein Abedini, member of the National Council of Resistance (NCRI)’s Foreign Affairs Committee said that the dismissal of Larijani shows the Iranian regime’s determination to carry on with its pursuit of its nuclear weapons and also confrontation with the international community.

The Iranian Resistance's President-elect, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, described Ali Larijani's ouster as the chief nuclear negotiator of the mullahs' regime, a major purge within the clerical regime as the regime is amid the downward spiral of disintegration. She added that Larijani's ouster which followed the removal of Maj. Gen. Rahim Safavi, the Commander-in- Chief of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), and a number of other members of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's cabinet, reflect the depth of the crisis within the regime. This will be followed by more resignations and dismissals and in the future, Mrs. Rajavi said.

NCRI – 150 Parliamentarians called on the British government and the European Union to have dialogue with the Iranian Resistance and its President-elect Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, while imposing rigorous sanctions against the Iranian regime.

The announcement was made in a press conference on Wednesday at the British Parliament on the occasion of the World Day Against the Death Penalty by the MPs and Lords representing the British Parliamentary Committee for Iran Freedom.
