On February 23, 2023, two members of Parliament from the United Kingdom, David Jones, and Bob Blackman delivered speeches at Ashraf-3<\/a>, the home of Albania\u2019s People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK<\/a>). They expressed their admiration and support for the Iranian Resistance <\/a>in the struggle for freedom and democracy in Iran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jones, the President of the cross-party British Committee for Iran Freedom<\/a>, was honored to be among so many friends at the event. He recognized the significant role that Iranian women have played in the fight for freedom and democracy and encouraged support for their efforts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jones emphasized the importance of the PMOI <\/a>and the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) in promoting freedom and called on Western nations to support the Iranian people in their quest for a better future and their fight against oppression. Jones proudly stated that his committee had been sanctioned by Tehran for their support of the NCRI and the fight for democracy in Iran. He noted that any attempts to censor the NCRI and deny their support demonstrated the regime\u2019s fear of the truth and the growing support for the NCRI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blackman, a UK politician, expressed his gratitude for being invited to Ashraf-3 and reaffirmed his commitment to a free, democratic, and non-nuclear republic in Iran. He spoke about the Resistance Museum in Ashraf-3, which showcases the struggle for freedom and the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for freedom in Iran. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
