NCRI- In a parliamentary debate that led to deproscription of the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI / MEK) in UK on Monday, Lord Clarke of Hamstead called on the British government to urge the European Union to remove the PMOI from the EU's black list.

"It was clear that the lead given by the British Government, which has now been proved to have been unlawful, motivated other countries to put the PMOI on the European list. The Government should work now to redeem themselves. They can do a penance by saying to our friends in Europe 'We got in wrong'", Lord Clarke said.

IRANIANS WIN BATTLE IN BRITAIN: Supporters of the People's Mojahedin Organisation of Iran celebrate outside Parliament in London June 23 after both Houses of Parliament voted in favor of removing a ban on the resistance group ending a seven-year legal battle to have the organization lifted from the UK blacklist.

Members of the British Parliament approved Monday an order by the home secretary to lift the ban on the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran, the PMOI, a member of the coalition National Council of Resistance of Iran. In the United States the group is known as the Mujahedeen-e-Khalq, or the MeK.

NCRI - Monday, British lawmakers formally removed ban on the main Iranian opposition group, the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI / MEK), after a seven-year campaign by the group.

This follows a court decision last month, which ruled that the government should remove it from a terrorist blacklist. The Proscribed Organizations Appeal has ordered that the PMOI (MEK) be removed from the list of outlawed groups.

The world’s major powers have offered a fresh package of incentives to Iran including long-term nuclear and economic cooperation in a bid to get it to abide by U.N. Security Council resolutions calling on it to suspend its uranium enrichment activities.

But in doing so Britain, France, Germany, China and Russia along with the George W. Bush administration seem to be closing their minds to the fact that the regime’s top leaders including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei have already in plain terms ruled out any deal which would require Tehran to halt enrichment. And there is every reason to think they have done so, because the regime needs enrichment to get a nuclear bomb.
