Highlights of Maryam Rajavi's Meetings & Activities

Why does the world remain silent when Iranian political prisoners are tormented to death or hanged?

Every year, April 24 reminds me of a great man: Professor Kazem Rajavi, member of the National Council of Resistance of Iran and brother of Massoud Rajavi, Leader of the Iranian Resistance. He was literally a great martyr to the cause of human rights in Iran.

The president of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, Maryam Rajavi, addressed a crowd gathered in front of the European Union Council building in Brussels, in January 2009.

Europe’s long-overdue focus on the threats posed by the Iranian regime’s regional warmongering and its ballistic missile program is of course a positive step.

Three essential elements were involved in creating the uprising. 

Those same three elements provide the potential for its persistence: First, accumulated, explosive discontent; second, an overall change in the international atmosphere to the detriment of the regime, and formation of a regional coalition against the regime’s fundamentalist meddling and warmongering; and the third significant factor is the presence of the People’s Mojahedin and the Iranian Resistance and their leading role.

The light of change is shining on Iran. The ruling regime is in disarray and paralyzed as never before.

Today, the immediate public demand in Iran is regime change and establishing freedom and democracy.

We are not saying that the mullahs must go so that we could replace them.

Amid the onslaught of the religious dictatorship, which seeks to intimidate all through unmatched brutality, the perseverance of this Resistance and the Mojahedin foretells a bright future and rekindles hope in an oppressed society; so much so that the mullahs have been compelled to produce television series to confront the Iranian youths' sympathy with the Resistance.
