NCRI – As European leaders opened a summit meeting to discuss the demagogic remarks of the president of the theocratic dictatorship in Iran, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian Resistance, called on EU leaders to halt diplomatic and trade ties to Tehran and refer the regime’s sponsorship of terrorism, nuclear file, and human rights record to the United Nations Security Council.
Mrs. Rajavi stressed that Ahmadinejad’s repugnant remarks are in no way incidental or spontaneous. Nor do they represent the views of just one faction of the medieval regime. The regime’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, has unequivocally endorsed and reaffirmed Ahmadinejad’s comments.
The President-elect of the Iranian Resistance pointed out that the mullahs ruling Iran seek the escalation of war and hostilities to pave the way for expanding their shameful domination of the countries in the region. They know full well that peace in the region would deliver another blow to their demagoguery and false advocacy of Islam and that they would be the biggest losers of peace in the region.
Mrs. Rajavi emphasized that regrettably, the failure to adopt specific decisions by the international community toward Tehran’s positions and conduct, especially after Ahmadinejad assumed power, emboldened the regime into believing that it could pursue its ambitions to spread terrorism and fundamentalism with impunity. The time has come to renounce the policy of appeasement. The European Union should put aside all vestiges of appeasement, the most striking result of which was to include the main Iranian opposition movement, the People’s Mojahedin, in the terrorist list.
