Italian Senate Conference: Iran, Human Rights, Justice, and the Role of the International Community<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Distinguished members of the Senate and Parliament of Italy,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dear friends,
I salute and extend my gratitude to you for defending the human rights of the Iranian people. This conference is being held in sensitive circumstances.
With its belligerent policies and efforts to export\u00a0fundamentalism and terrorism<\/strong><\/a>, Iran\u2019s ruling regime is today the epicenter of war and insecurity in the Middle East.
It is a threat to global security because of its insistence on expanding its ballistic missile program and dangerous nuclear weapons project.
It poses an omnipresentthreat to European communities because it is actively plotting terrorist operations in Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The common cause of all these threats is the mullahs\u2019 violations of the Iranian people\u2019s human rights. They resort to terrorism and warmongering to continue their crackdown on the\u00a0people of Iran<\/strong>.
For this reason, defending\u00a0human rights in Iran<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0not only benefits our people but is also necessary to improve human rights around the world and protect the lives and security of people in the Middle East and Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
