But they have promoted and defended the actions and goals of their \u2018rival\u2019 faction, the \u2018hardliners\u2019, associated with Supreme leader Ali Khamenei. No such distinction exists, according to the MEK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rouhani\u2019s previous career included a time he spent as the country\u2019s chief nuclear negotiator, where according to his own words, he\u2019d forestalled US and European pressures by creating an environment that showed cooperation, in order for the advancements regarding certain aspects of the regime\u2019s nuclear program to continue while they were not being closely watched by outsiders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The MEK advised that the mullahs continue to rely on extortion to achieve their belligerent goals. The regime\u2019s notorious Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/inside-irans-army-of-terror-and-oppression-revolutionary-guards-irgc-part-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">IRGC<\/a>), illegally seized the South Korean vessel, Hanguk Chemi, while it was in the Persian Gulf, in another attempt to get the international community to give in to its demands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The purpose of capture and holding hostage of the chemical tanker is the regime\u2019s hope for securing the release of money frozen in South Korean banks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iranfocus.com\/en\/iran-general\/33668-a-primer-on-iran-s-mek\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MEK<\/a>: \u201cIf Europe continues to steer itself away from reinforcing the consequences\u2026the mullah regime\u2019s principle of taking hostages will be reinforced, and even more foreign nationals will be taken by the regime as hostages to be used to bargain with\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Foreign ministers, who represent the three European signatories to the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, have responded last week when the mullah regime claimed that it had restarted with its uranium enrichment to increase to 20% purity, well beyond what is allowed according to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
