It has been nearly one year since Iran was rocked by the Major Iran protests that spanned over 200 cities and towns. It is only a matter of time before the nationwide unrest flares up again, and when it does the international community should be ready to recognize the Iranian people\u2019s desire for regime change and freedom.<\/p>\n

Mrs. Maryam Rajavi<\/a>, the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI<\/a>) has repeatedly said that regime change in Iran must come about through the efforts of the Iranian people. But Mrs. Rajavi has also made it absolutely clear that foreign governments have a responsibility to recognize the Iranian people\u2019s desire for regime change, and their right to resistance against the clerical regime.<\/p>\n

The potential for further uprisings hasn\u2019t been seriously disputed by anyone with knowledge of Iranian affairs, not even by the Iranian regime itself. In fact, for nearly three years, the regime\u2019s officials have been warning one another about the growing social influence and organizational strength of the Iranian Resistance, particularly the People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The MEK played a leading role not just during the November 2019 uprising<\/a> but also its prequel, another nationwide movement that emerged in the final days of 2017 then lasted through much of January 2018. In the midst of that first uprising<\/a>, the regime\u2019s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei delivered a speech in which he said that the MEK had \u201cplanned for months\u201d to facilitate the demonstrations and to popularize slogans like \u201cdeath to the dictator.\u201d<\/p>\n
