On the eve of the\u00a0Free Iran Global Summit<\/a>, scheduled for Friday, July 17, 2020, dignitaries across the world express their support of the struggle of the Iranian people and their Organized Resistance under the leadership of Ms. Maryam Rajavi<\/a> for freedom, justice, and equality. In this respect, Rowan Williams, former Archbishop of Canterbury, leads call on human rights organizations to push the Iranian regime to respect the fundamental rights of Iranian protesters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Notably, on the dawn of July 14, the judiciary carried out the death sentence of two Kurdish political prisoners in Urmia city, northwestern Iran. Authorities had arrested them in March 2014 under the fake allegation of \u201cwaging war against God.\u201d They were subjected to torture and ill-treatment for a year to confess to fabricated crimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By these executions, the clerical regime seeks to terrorize the people of #Iran<\/a> in the face of their protests. At the same time, they seek to boost the spirit of their mercenary agents and recruit their families for espionage and suppression of the public. #StopExecutionsInIran<\/a><\/p>\u2014 Maryam Rajavi (@Maryam_Rajavi) July 14, 2020<\/a><\/blockquote>
