More than <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/news\/live-report-over-1000-political-prisoners-urge-the-world-community-to-investigate-1988-massacre\" rel=\"noopener\">1,000 former Iranian political prisoners<\/a> took part and some of them recounted the experience of appearing before \u201cdeath commissions\u201d in the summer of 1988 as the Iranian regime attempted to systematically annihilate the main opposition, the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/i\/primer-the-history-the-peoples-mojahedin-organization-iran\" rel=\"noopener\">Mojahedin-e-Khalq<\/a> (<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/pmoi-mek\/\" rel=\"noopener\">PMOI\/MEK<\/a>). A number of European politicians and experts on international law also addressed the conference to emphasize the need for accountability and the means by which that might be obtained.<br \/>\nI can only hope that the leadership of the European Union was paying attention to the conference, but I have little confidence that they were. As recently as August 5, the EU was reaching out to the Iranian government with open arms when it sent Enrique Mora, the deputy political director for the European External Action Service, to attend the inauguration of the Iranian regime\u2019s new president <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/who-is-ebrahim-raisi-ncr-iran\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Ebrahim Raisi<\/a>. This decision blatantly ignored the fact that countless Iranian citizens and Iranian expatriates had loudly protested Raisi\u2019s candidacy and urged the international community to do the same on the basis of his high-level involvement in the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/1988-massacre-of-political-prisoners-in-iran\/\" rel=\"noopener\">1988 massacre<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">At that time, Raisi was serving as a deputy prosecutor for Tehran when, by all accounts, he eagerly seized the opportunity to become one of four officials who made up the Tehran <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=M491lzJ3hXc\" rel=\"noopener\">death commission<\/a>. Many of the former political prisoners who recalled their experiences last week also recalled seeing Raisi at their detention facilities and finding that he was especially active to pass death sentences quickly, often handing them down after speaking to a \u201cdefendant\u201d for as little as a minute.<br \/>\nThe MEK was explicitly named in Khomeini\u2019s <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/iran-1988-massacre-of-political-prisoners\/iran-1988-massacre\/\" rel=\"noopener\">fatwa<\/a> which set the stage for the massacre. The edict labeled MEK as enemies of God himself, a fact that some legal scholars in last week\u2019s conference said qualified the 1988 massacre as an example of genocide aimed at wiping out those who believe in a moderate form of Islam that is incompatible with the mullahs\u2019 fundamentalism. Of course, the 1948 Genocide Convention, as well as establishing those criteria, obligates all ratifying countries to take action against known perpetrators.<br \/>\nIn sending a delegation to Raisi\u2019s inauguration, the EU essentially legitimized the authority of human rights abuses and alleged perpetrators of genocide over all the functions of Iran\u2019s judiciary and its entire executive branch. If the EU leadership fails to promptly reverse this decision by adopting at least some of the recommendations from last week\u2019s conference, it risks not only letting the 1988 massacre continue to go unpunished by also emboldening Iran to undertake still more large-scale human rights violations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\nRaisi was already thus encouraged as judiciary chief when he oversaw key aspects of a violent crackdown on dissent following a nationwide uprising in <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/iran-protests-2019-update\/\" rel=\"noopener\">November 2019<\/a>. About 1,500 participants in that protest movement were killed almost immediately in mass shooting incidents and a further 12,000 were arrested. Many of those arrestees were then tortured over a period of months in various Iranian jails, as detailed in an Amnesty International report titled \u201cTrampling Humanity.\u201d<br \/>\nIt was partly on the basis of that report and partly based on the organization\u2019s longstanding awareness of the 1988 massacre that Amnesty issued a statement following Raisi\u2019s \u201celection\u201d which condemned the fact that he \u201chas risen to the presidency instead of being investigated for the crimes against humanity of murder, enforced disappearance and torture.\u201d The report went on to reiterate a call for Raisi \u201cto be investigated for his involvement in past and ongoing crimes under international law, including by states that exercise universal jurisdiction.\u201d<br \/>\nPractically all of the politically and demographically diverse participants in last week\u2019s conference repeated this appeal for an investigation and those with particular expertise in international law were keen to emphasize the potential role of universal jurisdiction. Eric David, a Belgian scholar of international law, affirmed the value of a UN investigation that might lead to prosecution of Raisi and others at the International Criminal Court, but he noted that such an investigation should be \u201cencouraged without forgetting at any time that these are crimes that justify the application of universal jurisdiction.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cIf an Iranian regime official finds himself in any state on the planet\u2026 the prosecutor of this state can [lawfully] indict this person for the crimes committed in 1988,\u201d David continued. \u201c\u2026The exercise of universal jurisdiction in all states concerning the perpetrators of these crimes raises no legal difficulty.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The main obstacle to justice for the victims of the 1988 massacre is, therefore, not legal but political in nature. If the EU is prepared to stand up with its principles and respect for global human rights, it is time to stop turning a blind eye to the 1988 massacre. The EU should hold the regime to account for the genocide and present a resolution to the Security Council to send the case to the International Criminal Court.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_218196\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-218196\" style=\"width: 185px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Dr.-Alejo-Vidal-Quadras\" class=\" wp-image-218196\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Dr.-Alejo-Vidal-Quadras.jpg\" alt=\"Dr.-Alejo-Vidal-Quadras\" width=\"185\" height=\"185\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Dr.-Alejo-Vidal-Quadras.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Dr.-Alejo-Vidal-Quadras-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Dr.-Alejo-Vidal-Quadras-60x60.jpg 60w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 185px) 100vw, 185px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-218196\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dr. Alejo Vidal-Quadras<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Alejo Vidal-Quadras, a professor of atomic and nuclear physics, was vice-president of the European Parliament from 1999 to 2014.
