With Iran\u2019s increasing domestic and international malign activities, the world community should take a firm stand against the regime.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The European countries seem to have closed their eyes on the regime\u2019s malign activities. Despite several events within the last few years, the European countries have not severed their diplomatic relations with the regime.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The recent expulsions of Iranian diplomats from France, the Netherlands, and Albania bear this out. Those expulsions came in response to recent acts by the regime\u2019s diplomat-terrorist, involved in terrorist plots against Iranian dissidents on European soil. The plots in question run the gamut from targeted assassinations to attempted bombings of major Resistance\u2019s gatherings such as the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/free-iran-gathering-paris-2018\/\" rel=\"noopener\">\u201cFree Iran\u201d rally<\/a> that took place just outside Paris in June 2018. That particular incident led not only to expulsions but to the first ever terrorism trial featuring an Iranian regime\u2019s diplomat as one of the defendants.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Following a lengthy investigation, that trial formally began last November in Belgium, where two of the regime\u2019s operatives were caught in possession of the 500 grams of TATP explosive that they were planning to use to disrupt the gathering of over 100,000 expatriates and kill the Iranian opposition leader, Mrs. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maryam-rajavi.com\/en\/biography\" rel=\"noopener\">Maryam Rajavi<\/a>. Public revelations from the case include the fact that the explosive material was smuggled into Europe by the principal defendant, Iran\u2019s incarcerated diplomat-terrorist, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/ncri-statements\/iranian-diplomat-and-three-accomplices-on-trial-for-planned-bombing-of-a-massive-rally-in-paris\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Assadollah Assadi<\/a>, via a commercial flight while he was traveling on a diplomatic passport.<\/p>\n<div class=\"lyte-wrapper\" title=\"Iranian diplomat Assadollah Assadi faces terrorism trial in Belgium court\" style=\"width:853px;max-width:100%;margin:5px;\"><div class=\"lyMe\" id=\"WYL_NnKyWTWC6EM\" itemprop=\"video\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"><div><meta itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-youtube-lyte\/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FNnKyWTWC6EM%2Fhqdefault.jpg\" \/><meta itemprop=\"embedURL\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NnKyWTWC6EM\" \/><meta itemprop=\"duration\" content=\"PT6M42S\" \/><meta itemprop=\"uploadDate\" content=\"2020-12-03T18:39:02Z\" \/><\/div><div id=\"lyte_NnKyWTWC6EM\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-youtube-lyte\/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FNnKyWTWC6EM%2Fhqdefault.jpg\" class=\"pL\"><div class=\"tC\"><div class=\"tT\" itemprop=\"name\">Iranian diplomat Assadollah Assadi faces terrorism trial in Belgium court<\/div><\/div><div class=\"play\"><\/div><div class=\"ctrl\"><div class=\"Lctrl\"><\/div><div class=\"Rctrl\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><noscript><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/NnKyWTWC6EM\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-youtube-lyte\/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FNnKyWTWC6EM%2F0.jpg\" alt=\"Iranian diplomat Assadollah Assadi faces terrorism trial in Belgium court\" width=\"853\" height=\"460\" \/><br \/>Watch this video on YouTube<\/a><\/noscript><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"Antwerp court hearings \u2013 Friday, November 27, 2020 Belgian prosecutors requested a 20-year sentence for Iranian regime diplomat-terrorist Assadollah Assadi following its four-hour indictment. The jail time requested for the three other terrorists (Assadi\u2019s hired accomplices) were 18 years for Amir Saadouni and Nasimeh Naami, and 15 years for Mehrdad Arefani. The prosecutors also requested the latter three to be stripped of their Belgian citizenships. The most important target in this foiled bomb plot was Iranian opposition President Maryam Rajavi, and Saadouni and Naami were told to install the bomb as close as possible to her, the prosecutors emphasized. All the collected evidence indicate Assadi commanded this bombing operation, the prosecutors highlighted, adding he should be condemned for our own security. Assadi played the main role in the attack targeting the Iranian opposition People&#039;s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK), the prosecutors continued. Describing how Assadi was arrested in Germany, the prosecutors underscored he enjoys no diplomatic immunity. The plot for mass killing people is the reason why we are resorting to international law to deny him of diplomatic immunity. The Iranian regime not permitting Assadi to attend the first session of this trial, cooperate and answer questions indicates that Tehran was behind this terrorist operation. Since Assadi was working with the regime\u2019s Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS), one cannot claim this operation was a one-man initiative and the entire regime was involved in this plot. Saadouni began cooperating with the MOIS back in 2004 for money and the pressure placed on his family. Saadouni and Naami significantly increased their ties with the MOIS from 2007 onward. From 2015 the couple is linked with Assadi under the alias \u201cDaniel\u201d and they were in constant contact with him until their arrest on June 30, 2018. The two had constantly travelled to Iran during this period and had met with Assadi in various countries such as Germany, Italy and Austria, receiving money for information. The places of their meetings were always specified by Assadi. Naami was fully trained on how to use the bomb, according to the prosecutors. Assadi went back to Iran several times during his effort to prepare all the necessities for this operation. Strong evidence in this regard was found in his vehicle and mobile phone indicating he went back to Iran once a month facilitating his preparations for the 2018 plot. On March 19, 2018, Naami and Saadouni began exchanging phone calls and emails with Assadi. Their last meeting was on June 28 at a pizzeria in Luxembourg where Naami received the bomb, a new SIM card and 18,000 euros, placing them all in her bag and receiving written training on how to use the bomb. Based on the indictment Mehrdad Arefani began cooperating with and was recruited by the MOIS when he was arrested in Iran back in 1981. Arefani was in constant contact with Assadi, obtaining footages and using equipment to gather information about the MEK for the MOIS. Arefani met with Assadi in various countries and received money from him. Arefani was missioned to control Naami and Saadouni properly carrying out the bomb plot at the scene. Assadi was waiting for Arefani to provide reports and control the scene through him.

This in turn helped him to cultivate a network of terrorist operatives whom he visited and provided with cash payments across at least 11 countries. Only three of these operatives are known to have taken part in the French terror plot, and so only they have been publicly identified and brought up on charges.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">In all likelihood, there are elements of the network that remain unknown even to European intelligence agencies. And given the importance of Assadi\u2019s diplomatic status in the 2018 terror plot, it stands to reason that the Iranian regime has installed other terrorist operatives in similar roles over the years. Indeed, shortly after Assadi\u2019s arrest was announced, a spokesperson for Belgian law enforcement declared that the vast majority of Iran\u2019s supposed consular officials are actually agents of the regime\u2019s Secret Service.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Such observations ought to stand out as earnest warnings about the inherent danger of maintaining normal, unconditional diplomatic relations with the world\u2019s foremost state sponsor of terrorism. They should certainly prompt those governments to recognize that they are at greater risk of Iranian terrorism by continuing their relations with Tehran.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NnKyWTWC6EM\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Weekly-Signe-up-logo-1\" class=\"size-full wp-image-219239 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Weekly-Signe-up-logo-1.png\" alt=\"Weekly-Signe-up-logo-1\" width=\"250\" height=\"83\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Fortunately, Belgium is pointing the way toward more appropriate measures by actually pursuing conviction of the Assadi, the Iranian diplomat cum terrorist. The verdict in his case is due any day now, and prosecutors have asked that he be given the maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. This will go a long way toward demonstrating that the regime\u2019s officials are not actually immune from consequences for their support of terrorism. But that message must ultimately be reinforced by demands for broader accountability.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The prosecutors in Assadi\u2019s case have made it absolutely clear that in masterminding the 2018 terror plot, Assadi was not acting as a rogue agent but was operating under orders from high officials within the Iranian regime. The Iranian Resistance has already revealed that the orders in question ultimately came both from the regime\u2019s President Hassan Rouhani and from Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. The regime\u2019s foreign Minister <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/iran-world\/26715-a-look-at-the-record-of-iran-regime-foreign-minister-javad-zarif\" rel=\"noopener\">Mohammad Javad Zarif<\/a>, cherished by EU leaders as \u201cmoderate,\u201d facilitated the terrorist plot and provided diplomatic to Assadi.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">These facts confirm how deeply terrorism is entrenched in the structure of Iran\u2019s theocratic dictatorship. This in turn highlights how much effort the international community will have to put into compelling the regime\u2019s leadership to change its strategy and conclusively disavow its use of terrorism as a form of statecraft. The regime has shown that it still won\u2019t change its way. Thus, the democratic nations of the world will have to take a firm stand by isolating the regime completely and end the appeasement policy. The EU leaders should also shut down the regime\u2019s embassies and expel its, agents. Thus, guaranteeing their own security.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the new administration taking power in the United States, many of Iran&rsquo;s apologists, parallel to the regime&rsquo;s blackmailing campaign, hope to return to what they call &ldquo;the golden era&rdquo; [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":234058,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[129,198,273,287],"class_list":{"0":"post-234050","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-terrorism-a-fundamentalism","8":"tag-iran","9":"tag-ncri","10":"tag-assadollah-assadi","11":"tag-iran-terrorism"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
