On Tuesday, May 10, 2022, the Antwerp Court in Belgium announced the verdict of three accomplices of the Iranian regime’s terrorist-diplomat Asadollah Assadi. An international conference held in this regard by the National Council of Resistance of Iran(NCRI).

A group of prominent dignitaries from the U.S. and Europe attended and spoke at the conference online.
The keynote speaker at the conference was Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran(NCRI).

Martin Patzelt, Member of the German Bundestag (2013–2021), Mayor of Frankfurt (2002–2010), addressed at the conference.

The following is an excerpt from Mr. Patzelt’s speech at the conference:

This is a historic day. The regime and its leader are in the dock in the Belgian court. This is a small victory for justice.

Appeasement with totalitarian regimes makes them more aggressive in their war and terrorism. We must learn from this and pursue a firm policy against the mullahs in Tehran.

We must support the opposition to this regime, the NCRI and MEK. They constantly expose the regime’s crimes. They are a voice for a free Iran.

They warn the international community with documents and analyses about the regime’s fundamentalism and terrorism, and its efforts to acquire a nuclear bomb.

I believe this democratic opposition is the best partner for achieving lasting peace. It is time for Europe to put an end to its self-deception.

The mullahs are the cause of instability and insecurity around the world. Europe must not become a hub for Iran’s state terrorism. The MOIS and IRGC must be designated as terrorist organizations.

The Iranian regime has a large network of terrorists and spies and sleeper cells in Europe. You can’t trust someone who constantly lies and deceives us. There has to be zero tolerance here. The regime’s network of agents must be dismantled.
