Luxembourg – May 24, 2025: Supporters of the Iranian Resistance held a rally and exhibition in Luxembourg to commemorate the anniversary of the execution of the PMOI/MEK’s founders by the Shah’s regime on May 25, 1972. The event also marked the 60th anniversary of the MEK’s founding in 1965 and six decades of steadfast struggle against two successive dictatorships in Iran: first the monarchy of the Shah, and now the theocratic regime of the mullahs.
Demonstrators honored the sacrifice of the MEK’s founders and celebrated the movement’s enduring commitment to freedom, democracy, and a secular republic in Iran. They highlighted the MEK’s pivotal role in resisting both regimes and upholding the Iranian people’s right to sovereignty and justice.
In conjunction with these commemorations, participants strongly condemned the Iranian regime’s escalating human rights violations, particularly the death sentences targeting political prisoners. Protesters called for an immediate end to the death penalty, the unconditional release of all political detainees, and the international blacklisting of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). They voiced resounding support for the “No to Executions” campaign led by NCRI President-elect Maryam Rajavi and urged the global community to take firm action against the regime’s ongoing crimes.
Participants also honored the memory of those martyred during the Iranian revolution and the nationwide uprisings—individuals executed by the regime or killed while fighting for freedom. Their legacy was remembered as a powerful testament to the Iranian people’s enduring resolve. The demonstrators reaffirmed their unwavering commitment to the cause of liberty, human rights, and democratic change in Iran.
