The meeting is aimed at introducing and recognizing the democratic alternative to the Iran regime, the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) and supporting the protests and uprisings of the Iranian people, which began in early 2018, with a clear demand for “Regime change” in Iran.
It should be recalled that the Iranian people are tackling a dire economic situation and 80% of the people of Iran are living under the poverty line. While the criminal Mullahs are spending all the Iranian national wealth in Syria, Yemen and…. for their expansionist policies and terrorist goals.
