And that crime is still ongoing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The carnage was carried out based on two decrees by Khomeini to massacre all the prisoners who supported the People\u2019s Mojahedin of Iran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was an obvious case of genocide, followed by the execution of prisoners of other political groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the perpetrators of the 1988 massacre has been on trial in the Court of Stockholm in recent months. The court held some of its sessions at the Court of Durr\u00ebs in Albania to hear the testimonies of several PMOI members at Ashraf 3 who are plaintiffs in the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That henchman confessed to one important reality: \u201cAnyone who speaks about the PMOI would be arrested, and the Judiciary is extremely serious about it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For several decades now, under the mullahs\u2019 rule in Iran, it has been forbidden to mention the PMOI\u2019s name. The ban is one aspect of the genocide carried out against the PMOI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last June, Khamenei selected one of the key perpetrators of the 1988 massacre as the regime\u2019s president.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For their part, the people of Iran launched their call-for-justice movement that calls for the prosecution of Khamenei and Raisi for committing genocide and crimes against humanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Europe\u2019s inaction has emboldened the regime in its crimes<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As far as the international community is concerned, silence and inaction vis-a-vis this brutal crime amounts to appeasing Iran\u2019s ruling murderers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Maryam Rajavi addresses EP Conference on the eve of the Human Rights Day - December 7, 2021\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Wo1aqIqWYOA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In September 2020, seven UN Special Rapporteurs highlighted an important development in this shameless policy. They recalled that despite the UN General Assembly\u2019s adoption of a resolution that addressed this massacre in December 1988, the General Assembly and the Human Rights Commission failed to take any action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Such inaction emboldened the Iranian regime and led to the worsening of the human rights situation in Iran. The European governments remained silent and turned a blind eye on the slaughter of political prisoners and the crackdown on protests, thereby, giving the regime an open hand to continue its atrocities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They thought the human rights abuses would be limited inside the Iranian borders. The experience of the past three decades has proven that this was a mistaken view and a wrongheaded policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The mullahs considered it as a sign of weakness. They realized that their path to bomb making and to undermining the stability and national sovereignty of countries in the Middle East was wide open.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last year, a Court in Belgium sentenced one of the regime\u2019 diplomat-terrorists to 20 years in prison for plotting to bomb the NCRI\u2019s annual gathering in Paris, which would have caused a carnage. Why did Europe fail to take any serious action against such a case of state-sponsored terrorism? Why does Europe not end impunity for Iran\u2019s ruling murderers?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently, the highest court in Switzerland ordered investigations into the Iranian regime\u2019s 1990 assassination of Prof. Kazem Rajavi, the NCRI\u2019s representative in Switzerland, as a case of genocide and crime against humanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Urging international prosecution of the Iranian regime\u2019s leaders<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope that in your capacity as the representatives of the people of Europe, you would defend Europe\u2019s dignity by rejecting the policy of appeasement and standing for the human rights of the people of Iran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I urge you to take the lead and initiate a movement so that Europe stands with the people of Iran, with the families and survivors of the 30,000 massacred political prisoners in 1988, with the protesting women and youth, and with the people and innocent children of Isfahan whose eyes were blinded by the IRGC\u2019s pellet guns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I specifically urge you to adopt a resolution in the European Parliament, which would recognize the 1988 massacre as a genocide and a crime against humanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I urge you to support the Iranian people\u2019s demand for the international prosecution of Khamenei and Raisi for the massacre of political prisoners in 1988 and the November 2019 killings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I urge you to call on governments of Europe to condition their relations and talks with the clerical regime on ending the arrest of protesters and torture and executions in prisons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure

However, we did not see that, and I feel our democratic principles are being betrayed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are aware that the mullahs are deceptively trying to propagate the false idea that there is no alternative to the ruling system in Iran, but we understand that there is a well-organized and well-prepared democratic alternative led by Mrs. Rajavi that is ready.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, we ask our EU officials and leaders to side with the Iranian people and this viable alternative.
