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).
Struan Stevenson, Former President of the European Parliament’s Delegation for Relations with Iraq, addressed at the conference.
The following is an excerpt from Mr. Stevenson’s speech at the conference:
Diplomats enjoy special privileges. Assadi violated each of the core principles of diplomacy. He was the key operative in the attempted bombing of the NCRI rally in Villepinte. Assadi was acting under orders. It could only have been validated by Khamenei and Rouhani. The foreign minister was Javad Zarif. He must have been a key player, as was then-MOIS minister Mahmood Alavi. All should be indicted for acts of terror. The terrorists faced European justice.
But their trial cannot simply draw a line under this heinous offense. The regime’s leaders must also be indicted and held to account. The operatives had registered as political refugees in Europe and applied for citizenship in Belgium. This is how the regime hides its agents in plain sight. The list of the MOIS’s spies and terrorists must be exposed. The regime’s spies and agents and so-called diplomats must be expelled.
Today’s judgment in Antwerp shows the regime has failed. The regime will face justice. Appeasement has no place when dealing with dictators. Send a message to Khamenei and Raisi that your days are numbered, and you too will face Western justice.
