Gothenburg, Sweden — May 16, 2026 — Supporters of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) gathered to protest the execution of political prisoners in Iran, including PMOI members and individuals detained during the January 2026 uprising.

Demonstrators urged the Swedish government to take firm action against the Iranian regime over its ongoing executions and alleged terrorist activities. They called for the closure of the regime’s embassy in Stockholm, which they described as a hub for espionage and terrorism, and demanded the immediate and unconditional release of all political prisoners in Iran.

Participants rejected both the Shah’s rule and the current clerical regime, while voicing support for the democratic alternative put forward by the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI). The rally also called for an immediate end to executions in Iran and reaffirmed opposition to all forms of dictatorship.

Speakers and participants expressed support for the Ten-Point Plan proposed by Maryam Rajavi, describing it as a roadmap for a democratic Iran founded on pluralism, gender equality, separation of religion and state, and respect for human rights. The rally underscored the Iranian people’s demand for a democratic republic, rejecting both the current theocratic regime and any return to monarchy.
