Maryam Rajavi is the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (Coalition of democratic Iranian opposition) for the transitional period during which sovereignty will be transferred to the people of Iran. Maryam Rajavi’s Ten-Point Plan for the future of Iran calls for a republic based on the separation of religion and state, gender equality, abolition of the death penalty and a non-nuclear Iran.
His courageous and unforgettable efforts in promoting peace, fraternity, and in standing against injustice and discrimination will remain in the annals of history
The Iranian society and its vanguards are marching toward a glorious future based on freedom, equality, and democracy, and they will pay whatever price it takes to achieve it.
Two decades ago, at a session of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, I proposed a third solution to the Iran issue, stating that the international community is not compelled to choose between a nuclear-armed mullahs’ regime or war. There is a third solution: democratic change by the Iranian people and their organized Resistance
Everyone wishes for the release of every hostage held in the mullahs’ prisons. But in such exchanges, French policy must never be allowed to fall hostage to the regime’s blackmail—because that only encourages them to take more hostages.

Maryam Rajavi was born into a middle-class family in Tehran. One of her brothers, Mahmoud, is a veteran member of the PMOI/MEK and was a political prisoner during the Shah’s regime.
Her older sister, Narges, was killed by the Shah’s secret police, SAVAK, in 1975.
Her other sister, Massoumeh, an industrial engineering student, was arrested by the clerical regime in 1982. Pregnant at the time, she was ultimately hanged after undergoing brutal torture. Massoumeh’s husband, Massoud Izadkhah, was also executed.
Maryam Rajavi graduated with honors from the prestigious Sharif University of Technology in metallurgical engineering.
She joined the PMOI/MEK to participate in the popular resistance against the two corrupt dictatorships of the Shah and the mullahs. In the 1970s, during her college years, she organized anti-Shah student protests.
In 1980, she ran for a seat in Parliament from Tehran. But, due to widespread voter fraud by the new fundamentalist regime, none of the opposition candidates made it into Parliament. Despite the scam, Maryam Rajavi received over 250,000 votes.
