New York\u2014September 19, 2023:<\/strong> On Tuesday, at a massive gathering, thousands of freedom-loving Iranians and supporters of the Iranian resistance convened to express their strong dissent against the presence of Ebrahim Raisi, the President of the Iranian regime, at the United Nations General Assembly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thousands of protesters passionately articulated their opposition, firmly denouncing Raisi as a central figure accountable for widespread acts of violence. They fervently asserted that he should not be granted a platform within the United Nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One deeply concerning aspect of Raisi\u2019s history revolves around his involvement in the 1988 massacre, which claimed the lives of over 30,000 political prisoners. Protesters asserted that, instead of extending a warm welcome to him at the United Nations, he should be apprehended and brought to justice for his alleged crimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
