Dr. Walid Phares, foreign policy expert, Co-Secretary General of the Transatlantic Parliamentary Group, on April 14, 2021, addressed a panel of international dignitaries in an online conference, observing the holy month of Ramadan and declaring interfaith solidarity in the face of fundamentalism that has spread and promoted by the mullahs’ regime in Iran.

The Iranian regime is the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism. To pursue its evil goal of spreading chaos, the Iranian regime has been using a fundamentalist misinterpretation of Islam.

The international dignitaries joined the opposition president-elect, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, and condemned the Iranian regime’s fundamentalism, and supported the Iranian people’s call for freedom and democracy.

Dr. Walid Phares, foreign policy expert, Co-Secretary General of the Transatlantic Parliamentary Group,

The Iranian regime tries to portray itself as the protector of Islamic countries. But the truth is far from that. The truth is the militias of the Iranian regime that is spreading terrorism across the Arab and Islamic countries. 

The regime is not the protector of Shiites. They are the oppressors of Shiites. After all these decades of bloodshed, how can we say that this regime represents Islam? We must help bring an understanding of the realities on the ground.

Most of the people in the region know the danger of this regime. We wish this resistance movement to be successful in bringing peace and stability to the region.
