peech by Stephen Harper, former Prime Minister of Canada: “I’m very happy to be here today to express my support in favour of the end of the regime. I am here today to tell the people of Iran, not who their government should be, but that it should be their choice. I hope to see freedom and democracy in Iran.”
“Iran is ruled by cruel and tyrannical mullahs, a regime that stands for everything that is wrong in Iran. The Canadian government, under me, was tough on the Regime, including designating it as a state sponsor of terrorism, closing the embassy in Tehran, and sponsoring UN moves against it.”
“The Regime does not seek freedom or peace and we must acknowledge the people’s rising protests in Tehran. Of course the regime continues to expand throughout the Middle East, build missiles and terrorise its people.”
“We know that the cash funneled into the Regime has enriched the mullahs not the people and that the mullahs do not wish to live in peace. Some in the West deny this, but we face it.
Do not give up hope in a free Iran. You have many friends that support a Free Iran, an Iran that will come to pass someday soon. Keep up the fights.”

Ben-Oni Ardelean, Vice-chairman of the Chamber of Deputies of Romania:
“We are here to say that we understand your plight and what is going on in Iran, since we also lived under dictatorship, and we support the NCRI and the Iranian Resistance. I want to encourage you to keep fighting.”
Kak Baba Sheikh Hossein: “I salute Maryam Rajavi and the heroic people of Kurdistan in Iran, who throughout history have foughts against the dictators in Iran. Our organisation, together with the NCRI, the democratic organised alternative to the mullahs, will not support the return of the heirs of the Shah. We will only welcome those who will free the Iranian Kurdistan; no other organisation will be able to stand as such, as the NCRI can.”
“We insist that the NCRI is the only alternative to the mullahs and soon this regime will be overthrown and the Iranian people will be free.”
Ad Melkert: “I’m proud that through many UN efforts, which I was a part of, particularly the effort to relocate MEK members to Albania. I support the MEK for their movement to freedom. I join you in reaffirming our hope the oppression implodes by its own contradictions and that all Iranian citizens will enjoy freedom and that change in Iran is within reach.”
“Your movement resonates far beyond your land, as respect for human rights is an internal call.”
“History tells us that it can take a long time to bring justice, but the MEK’s aspiration for change is dedicated to that. Iran will once again be an arena for freedom. That day will make the world a better place.”
General George Casey: Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army (2007 to 2011):
I’d like to speak about Iranian regime’s role in destabilizing the Middle East. Last week, Pompeo said that they wanted to push Iran’s regime to act like a normal country and I support that. Change must come to Iran. From our time in Iran, any of us in the military have seen how the regime uses terrorism to destabilize the Middle East.”
General Casey: Iranian regime bought political and economic support in Iran, while also supporting Sectarian violence. This sustained sectarian violence and thus the regime is directly responsible for killing hundreds of coalition forces. My troops captured six members of the Quds force and we found evidence that Iran was promoting sectarian violence. That was 12 years ago and Iranian regime is still doing this. Change must come to Iran before Iran can act like a normal country.
Salman Al-Ansari: Founder & President of The Saudi American Public Relation Affairs Committee from Saudi Arabia:”I come from a country of moderation and peace. Please allow me to congratulate you for sending a strong message of peace. You are showing the true face of Iran. Throughout your 53 years of heroic history, iran has been oppressed. We never thought it would reach this point in the regime, where the people are murdered. Those who remain silent should be ashamed. Today is a victory for the Iran of civilization and peace.”
Ranjana Kumari, Equality movement activist from India:”The women of Iran are not seeking reform from the Regime, only Regime change. The regime had been put on notice and their days are numbered. Iranians have clearly and openly made up their mind about wanting a democratic government in Iran.”
Maria Candida Almeida: “All iranian prisoners of conscience should be released immediately
Deputy Attorney General and former Attorney General of Portugal: the iranian people deserve the support of all freedom loving people.”
Rama Yade, former French Minister of Human Rights: “To the women of the Resistance, we are feeling a wind of protest in Iran and the Iranian women have launched a new dimension. I am very proud that the french government did not comply when it was asked to attack the MEK, but I know that change will not come from outside. It will come from the Iranian people, because Iran belongs to them.”
ngrid Betancourt, former Colombian Senator and presidential candidate:”Since December, we have seen how Maryam Rajavi has been delivering what she promised. Last year, she announced a thousand Ashraf to topple the dictatorship in Iran and that is happening right now, but it is the courage and the sacrifice of those who are fighting in the streets that will bring this uprising to victory.”
To the thousands of women leading the protests in Iran, to the young people, to the millions of people held hostage, we are with you in every step on the path to democracy, until you are finally free.”
Frances Townsend, former assistant to the US President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism: “History tells us the women have run this movement and the NCRI. We can see this today in the streets of Tehran, where women are standing up despite being hurt. To the young women in the audience, your mothers have fought this but you are the roses of the future.”
Pandeli Majko, Minister: “having boxes to vote, does not mean that you’re free to vote. We had a choice, helping Assad, who killed his own people, or helping Iranians. We chose to help you and now 3,000 Iranians are safe in Albania. But we cannot wait to see you back in Tehran.”
Fatmir Mediu, Leader of Albanian Republican Party: “many people ask why Albanians offered to help our friends from Iran. The answer is simple. We want freedom and prosperity for Iran and we know the suffering that the Iranian people have suffered. Nowadays the Iranian people are standing up for their freedom and we will stand with you. The Iranian people need us to stand up and support them. The regime will not last forever. Never give up.”
Giulio Terzi, former Foreign Minister of Italy: “we are very close to a Free Iran. We bring our support to Maryam Rajavi and all freedom fighters in Iran. Our unconditional support is even more determined now that that theocracy is trying to crush the opposition.”
We refuse to fall in the Regime’s trap. A large part of Italian history recognises that standing with the Iranian people is standing on the right side of history. 38 Italian Senators have signed a message supporting the people of Iran.”
