Mrs. Maryam Rajavi , the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran ( NCRI ), Senator Joseph Lieberman, former US Senator and U.S. Democratic Party Nominee for vice-president, and Dr. Alejo Vidal-quadras, former vice-president of the European Parliament visited on Tuesday an exhibition on the Iranian regime’s human rights abuses.
The exhibition held in Paris two days ahead of International Human Rights Day.
Speaking at the conference entitled: 'United Against Fundamentalism: Role of Iranian Resistance' Mrs. Rajavi said on Tuesday:
We honor the International Human Rights Day by paying respect to all brave men and courageous women in Iran and around the world who sacrificed their lives or have risen up to bring human rights and democratic freedoms to oppressed nations.
“For the people of Iran this day is a reminder of 120,000 martyrs of PMOI [MEK] and other victims of execution under religious fascism including 30,000 prisoners massacred in 1988 and all the political prisoners executed in recent years, as well as those slain in camps Ashraf and Liberty particularly the 24 freedom fighters who lost their lives last month in a rocket attack at the behest of the clerical regime.
Yes, this day is a reminder that our people’s human rights are being stoned in Iran.
It is a reminder that today the Iranian people do not have the right to live free and have no safeguards against arbitrary arrests, torture and harassment.
It reminds us that they are deprived of any comfort or security, that they do not have the right to freely choose what they wear, that their right to freedom of belief, conscience and religion has been taken away from them, that they are deprived of the right to freely hold social gatherings; and the right to a free election in order to establish the representative government they deserve.
Therefore, the International Human Rights Day is a reminder that the Iranian nation is entitled “as a last resort to rebellion against tyranny and oppression” to overthrow the religious dictatorship ruling Iran and to replace it with a government based on freedom, democracy and equality.
