Anna Fotyga, Polish MEP, Foreign Minister (2006-2007), addressed at the 2nd Day of The Free Iran World Summit on July 11, 2021.

Dear Iranian friends, ladies and gentlemen, I’m really privileged to be part of your annual important meeting, although remotely.

I wanted to address you to convey my greetings and best wishes to your courageous leader, Maryam Rajavi, and to all of you. I hope that COVID-19 is soon over, and we are able to meet physically and share views as usual as we used to some time ago. Probably this annual meeting is a rather sad one.

I understand that announcement of results of presidential elections are a matter of disappointment to many, if not all, of you.

Unfortunately, we in the European Parliament indicating difficult history, in particular indicating the crimes perpetrated by mullahs’ regime in 1988 are not satisfied with this result either. I think it means humiliation to the whole international community.

And be sure that we are with you, that we want to raise the issue of human rights in Iran, of genuine rights of Iranian people to have their sovereign country, democratic, beneficial to all ordinary people and developing in the way enabling them to live peacefully. All the best.
