The Munich Security Conference is attended by senior politicians and economists as well as social groups including the American Vice President.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Iran has been a topic of this conference for many years, in particular, due to the threat the regime poses to international security. But also, the discussions include [Iranian] nuclear weapons. That means that Iran should not be allowed to possess <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/inside-source-reports\/iran-s-nuclear-weapons-program\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">nuclear weapons<\/a>, and the violent crackdown on the protests in Iran are also part of the discussions. Through the protests that have lasted 5 months, the Iranian people have made it clear, that they do not want any form of dictatorship in Iran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This also includes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/iran-resistance\/iran-1979-anti-monarchical-revolution-never-ended\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Shah\u2019s dictatorship, which ended in 1979<\/a>. Unfortunately, this was followed by the dictatorship of the mullahs, who have been brutally oppressing the Iranian people for 44 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The nationwide uprising of the Iranian people for 5 months has caused a rethink at the Munich Security Conference. The Iranian regime has been disinvited to attend this year\u2019s event. The move against the brutal dictatorship in Iran is warmly welcomed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"666\" src=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43072\" 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\/2023\/02\/image.png 1000w, https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/image-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/image-768x511.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Though we object to the invitation of Shah\u2019s son Reza Pahlavi for this year\u2019s conference.
