 Iranians from across Germany gathered in Berlin on May 9 in a
Convention for Democratic Change in Iran, Supporting Maryam Rajavi.
The clerical regime had conspired against the convention and resorted
to spreading rumors such as claiming that a bomb was planted in the
convention hall to prevent it from taking place. The vigilance of the
organizers and steadfastness of the participants, however, foiled the
mullahs' efforts.
 A number of Member of Parliaments, political and social
personalities, and human rights activists participated in the
convention. They declared support for the Iranian resistance and its
President-elect in their speeches and called for the removal of the
People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran from the terror list.
The speakers also condemned the European countries' policy of
appeasement toward the cleric's terrorist dictatorship as well as
pressure against Iranian refugees.
Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian Resistance,
addressed the convention via a live satellite broadcast. She referred
to a recent declaration signed by 2.8 million Iraqis, which condemned
the Iranian regime’s meddling in Iraq and voiced support for the PMOI,
and said, “The demands specified in the declaration by the Iraqi people
have the same substance as your convention."
 The representatives of Iranian communities across Germany
chanted slogans in support of the PMOI and waved the tri-coloured
Iranian flag and portraits of the Resistance’s leaders.
A number of German-Iranian committees, including the Iranians' Society
of Berlin, the German-Iranian Women's Board, and the Association of
Iranian Youth in Germany also addressed the gathering. Representatives
of these groups declared support for democratic change in Iran by the
Iranian people and Resistance, and demanded Interior Minister Otto
Schilli to account for the pressures placed on Iranian refugees in
Germany.
