British MEP Sends Solidarity Message Supporting Iranian Resistance Grand Gahtering

NCRI – Richard Ashworth, member of European Parliament from British conservative party announced his support in a video message for the grand gathering of Iranian Resistance on July 1 in Villepinte, Paris.

In his message, Mr. Ashwoth noted fake elections in Iran and said:

My name is Richard Ashworth and I came from the United Kingdom and I am a member of British Conservative Party and a member of the European Parliament.

In my country, Britain, we recently has elections. There have also been general elections in many European countries and in all those elections in all those countries the people have had real policies, real candidates and real choice. For that reason, I watch with concern the development in Iran.

I note the general elections there and I note that the general elections the people of that country didn’t have, they didn’t have real candidates, didn’t have real choices.

They were denied proper elections. What they had was in fact a fake election. And that is betrayal of people. They cheated them and denied them of their democratic rights. So, as the Member of Parliament, I look with great admiration at Mrs. Maryam Rajavi and her supporters who stand up to that government and who say that what is going on in that country is wrong. Doing that takes great strength.

Doing that takes great courage. So, to Mrs. Rajavi and her supporters I send my best wishes. I send them my wish for great strength and courage in the campaign which they are running.

They are having a rally in Paris in the summer (on July 1) and I wish them a very successful rally.

I give them all the support that I and my colleagues can give but above all I wish them successful conclusion for the benefit of the people of Iran.
