Amsterdam, The Netherlands — January 3, 2025: Supporters of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) held a rally in Dam Square to express solidarity with the nationwide protests in Iran that began on December 28, 2025. Braving the freezing weather, participants echoed the call of their compatriots inside Iran for a free and democratic republic.

Demonstrators called for the establishment of a free and democratic republic in Iran, rejecting all forms of autocracy—whether monarchical or theocratic. They held pictures of the martyrs of the uprising and carried banners reflecting the demands of protesters in Iran, including “Regime change in Iran by the people of Iran” and “No to the Shah! No to the Mullahs.”

Prof. Dr. Kees de Lange, former senator, delivered a speech at this rally. Dr. de Lange expressed his support for the NCRI, led by Mrs. Maryam Rajavi.

The rally sent a powerful message to the international community to stand with the people of Iran—not with any form of dictatorship—and to support their ongoing struggle for freedom, justice, and democracy.

The demonstration drew attention from Dutch media. The newspaper Trouw covered the gathering, highlighting its calls of “No to the mullahs. No to the Shah. Yes to a free and democratic Iran.” The article, with photos and a report by Joost van Egmond, can be read here.
