Masoumeh Bolourchi, NCRI Representative in Germany, delivered the first speech at Berlin\u2019s Free Iran rally. she addressed the demonstrators: \u201cOur message to those who are trying to keep the regime in power is, you are on the losing side of history.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

This regime is doomed to be destroyed. To those who are demonizing the resistance and trying to help the regime, and the reporters who are working with the mullahs\u2019 Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS<\/a>), they are on the wrong side of history.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe call on EU countries to put the MOIS and Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC<\/a>) on the list of terrorist organizations, and expel their agents from their countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe mullahs are at their weakest in the past 40 years. Ashraf 3 has become the symbol of hope,\u201d she added, referring to the PMOI\/MEK\u2019s site in Albania<\/a>.

\n\nNCRI President Maryam Rajavi sent a video message<\/a> to the Free Iran rally emphasizing on the necessity for Europe to adopt a firm policy vis-a-vis the mullahs\u2019 regime in Iran.\n\n<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn this grand demonstration, your message and the message of the people of Iran to the world and particularly to Europe is this: Stop the policy of giving concessions to the religious dictatorship,\u201d Mrs. Rajavi said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In her speech, Mrs. Rajavi noted that 40 years of seeking reform within the regime has only provoked the mullahs in their crimes and hostile behavior toward the international community.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe mullahs impudently speak every day of resorting to uranium enrichment and preparing for a nuclear bomb,\u201d Mrs. Rajavi said, stressing that if the mullahs were not so sure of their relations with Europe, they woudl not be so insolent?

Did the history of Germany and other European nations not teach the world what a heavy and bloody price humanity has to pay for appeasement of fascism? #FreeIran<\/a> #Iran<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/KB5Hn9Xzpo<\/a><\/p>\u2014 Maryam Rajavi (@Maryam_Rajavi) July 6, 2019<\/a><\/blockquote>
