For over 40 years, the regime in Tehran has been terrorizing the people of Iran, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iranfocus.com\/en\/component\/tags\/tag\/iran-suppression\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">oppressing<\/a> its people, its religions and other minorities, and also terrorizing the Middle East as well as around the world by sponsoring terrorist groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That is why I join and applaud you for convening the international summit to make sure that the global community is aware of what the people of Iran truly <a href=\"http:\/\/oiac.org\/2020-free-iran-virtual-summit-july-17-july-20\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">want<\/a>: a secular, democratic, and non-nuclear republic. And I applaud <a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/maryam-rajavi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Madame Rajavi<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/maryam-rajavi\/\"> <\/a>for her leadership for representing the proud tradition of the Iranian people and for resisting all forms of tyranny.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"861\" height=\"537\" src=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Paul-Gosar.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16886\" onerror=\"this.src='https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/themes\/hello-elementor\/images\/broken-image-placeholder.gif';this.srcset='https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/themes\/hello-elementor\/images\/broken-image-placeholder.gif';\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Paul-Gosar.jpg 861w, https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Paul-Gosar-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Paul-Gosar-768x479.jpg 768w, https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Paul-Gosar-750x468.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 861px) 100vw, 861px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>My colleagues and I in the U.S. Congress are working hard to counter the Iranian regime threat and support President Trump not only for ending the failed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/a-look-at-irans-nuclear-weapons-projects\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">JCPOA<\/a> but also for pursuing the maximum pressure policy. This sensible approach is the best way the United States can support and empower pro-democracy movements in Iran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The United States must continue to show leadership against tyranny and Iran-<a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/iran-state-sponsor-terrorism\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sponsored terrorism<\/a>. There is still much that needs to be done. I join you in calling on the United Nations to extend the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iranfocus.com\/en\/component\/tags\/tag\/iran-arms-embargo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">arms embargo<\/a> against Iran. The international community, along with the U.S. leadership, must also reinstate snapback United Nations sanctions. Without these pressures, the regime will certainly escalate carnage both at home and abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>The gathering today shows that the Iranian people have a vibrant opposition movement led by Madame Rajavi which seeks to free Iran from the grasp of despotism.
