Gothenburg, Sweden — May 2, 2026 — Supporters of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) rallied in Gothenburg to mark International Workers’ Day, protesting the execution of political prisoners and demonstrators in Iran.

Participants rejected both the Shah’s rule and the current clerical regime, while voicing support for the democratic alternative put forward by the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI). The rally also called for an immediate end to executions in Iran and reaffirmed opposition to all forms of dictatorship.

Marking May Day, participants strongly condemned the anti-labor policies of Iran’s clerical regime, stressing that the only path to ending oppression and exploitation of Iranian workers is the overthrow of the ruling dictatorship.

Speakers and participants expressed support for the Ten-Point Plan proposed by Maryam Rajavi, describing it as a roadmap for a democratic Iran founded on pluralism, gender equality, separation of religion and state, and respect for human rights. The rally underscored the Iranian people’s demand for a democratic republic, rejecting both the current theocratic regime and any return to monarchy.

Protesters also voiced support for the democratic alternative, including the NCRI’s proposed Provisional Government, as well as the Resistance Units inside Iran, which continue their struggle for freedom and justice.
