\"Maryam — Maryam Rajavi welcomes Iran war ceasefire, calling for peace and freedom<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Mrs. Maryam Rajavi<\/a>, President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI<\/a>), welcomed the announcement of a ceasefire<\/a> in the Iran war and expressed hope it would mark a step toward lasting peace and freedom, according to a statement<\/a> from the **Secretariat of the National Council of Resistance of Iran<\/strong> on 8 April 2026.<\/p>\n**
**Mrs.** Maryam Rajavi<\/a> welcomed the ceasefire, particularly the halt to attacks on infrastructure and civilian facilities, describing it as the most appropriate decision at a critical moment by the United States. She reiterated that the guiding slogan of the Resistance and its provisional government has always been peace and freedom.<\/p>\n
**Mrs. Rajavi expressed hope that the 15-day ceasefire, amid the ongoing Iran war, would lead to a complete end to the conflict and open the way for lasting peace and freedom.<\/p>\n**
She emphasized that durable peace, as consistently advocated by the Iranian Resistance over the past 45 years, can only be achieved through the **overthrow of the clerical dictatorship<\/strong> of Velayat-e-Faqih by the Iranian people and organized resistance, followed by the establishment of a democratic republic.<\/p>\n**
Mrs. Rajavi also stressed that **halting executions<\/strong> in Iran, a demand shared by the Iranian people, must be included in any international agreement.<\/p>\n**
