Below is a partial transcript of Ambassador Hook\u2019s remarks:\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cGood morning.\u00a0 I have three announcements today on Iran, but I will first start by addressing the atrocities the Iranian regime has committed against its own people.\u00a0 On November 16th, protests were spreading throughout the country.\u00a0 In Mahshahr, a city in southwest Iran, a number of Iranian demonstrators blocked a road.\u00a0 The State Department has received videos of what happened next.\u00a0 Without warning, the IRGC opened fire on the protesters, killing several people.\u00a0 Many of the protesters fled to nearby marshlands to escape.\u00a0 The IRGC tracked them down and surrounded them with machine guns mounted on trucks.\u00a0 They then sprayed the protesters with bullets.\u00a0 Between the rounds of machine-gun fire, the screams of the victims can be heard.\u00a0 In this one incident alone, the regime murdered as many as a hundred Iranians and possibly more.\u00a0 When it was over, the regime loaded the bodies into trucks.\u00a0 We do not yet know where these bodies went, but we are learning more and more about how the Iranian regime treats its own people.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have seen reports of many hundreds more killed in and around Tehran.\u00a0 And as the truth is trickling out of Iran, it appears the regime could have murdered over a thousand Iranian citizens since the protests began.\u00a0 We cannot be certain because the regime blocks information.\u00a0 Among those murdered are at least a dozen children, including 13 and 14-year-olds.\u00a0 We have received reports from family members of victims who tried to recover the bodies.\u00a0 The authorities demanded that the families first pay the cost of the bullets they used.\u00a0 In many cases, authorities would not hand over the bodies until their family promised not to hold public funerals.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cMany thousands of Iranians have been wounded, and at least 7,000 protesters have been detained in Iran\u2019s prisons.\u00a0 Many of these protesters have been sent to two prisons, the Great Tehran Penitentiary and Qarchak Prison.\u00a0 Today Secretary Pompeo has determined these entities meet the criteria for gross human rights violations set out in CAATSA, and the State Department is submitting to Congress the names of these entities.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Great Tehran Penitentiary is known for its inhumane living conditions, which consist of unsanitary and crowded corridors, rodent infestations, insufficient food, water, and medical care.\u00a0 We have seen reports that protesters have been subject to abuse and mistreatment during interrogations, arbitrary beatings, and rape.\u00a0 Qarchak Prison is Iran\u2019s largest women\u2019s prison, and also holds many members of religious minority communities.\u00a0 It too is known for unbearable conditions, including regular assaults and inappropriate behavior of prison guards towards women, chronic lack of water, unsanitary living spaces, and an environment that enables rape and murder.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThe United States calls for the immediate release of all protesters detained in prison, as well as all the political prisoners currently held by the regime.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cNow is the time for all nations to stand with the Iranian people, diplomatically isolate the regime, and sanction those officials who are responsible for murdering innocent Iranians.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThere has been overwhelming support for the Iranian people by the American people.\u00a0 It is clear there is a bipartisan consensus that the regime\u2019s treatment of the Iranian people is abhorrent and unacceptable.\u00a0 We are unified here in the United States, and the international community likewise should be unified and support the Iranian people.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThese protests have made clear what Secretary Pompeo and I have been saying for quite some time:\u00a0 The Iranian people want the regime to focus on investing in people, not proxies.\u00a0 They are sick of the regime squandering its wealth on proxy warfare, which leads only to economic pressure and diplomatic isolation.\u00a0 Unfortunately, this is exactly what the Iranian regime continues to do, even while the Iranian people were filling the streets, calling for an end to We call on the international community to join us in holding Iran accountable for its acts of terror both against the nations of the world and against the Iranian people.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to close on one observation about the protests.\u00a0 The Iranian regime keeps losing major constituencies in its revolutionary base: first the students, then the middle class and merchants, then the working class, and even many of the clergy who criticize the regime.\u00a0 Now, in the latest protests, nine seminaries were burned.\u00a0 The only support left for the regime is with a handful of clerics whom the Iranian people despise for having imposed 40 years of brutality on them.\u00a0 The regime now maintains its grip on power through brute force.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ambassador Hook was also asked about the role of the <\/a>People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran<\/a> (PMOI<\/a>, Mujahedin-e Khalq or the MEK<\/a>) and\u00a0the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI)<\/a> in the Iran protests:\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

QUESTION:\u00a0 Brian, thank you so much for doing this.\u00a0 Could you give us your assessment of who really is responsible for organizing the protests in a hundred different cities?\u00a0 How organized is the uprising regionally?\u00a0 And also, what is your assessment of the exiled NCRI<\/a>\/MEK <\/a>organization with regard to their influence over the protests or their connectivity to demonstrators in various cities?\u00a0<\/p>\n

MR HOOK:\u00a0 The regime, I think, since in the Green Revolution of \u201909, decided that its best tactic it can use to prevent people from organizing is to sheer off the bravest of the protesters, arrest them, and kill them.\u00a0 And so it is \u2013 look, they even jail and murder environmentalists when they organize, like the Persian Wildlife Heritage Foundation and the Canadian Iranian who was arrested.\u00a0 The Iranians claim he committed suicide; it\u2019s much more likely that they killed him in jail.\u00a0 This is somebody who is trying to promote wildlife protection.\u00a0 And so whether it\u2019s the environment or whether it\u2019s labor unrest or unrest about corruption and squandering their wealth on foreign adventures, the regime follows the same tactic of preventing any organized opposition.\u00a0<\/p>\n

QUESTION:\u00a0 So there isn\u2019t a monolithic organization.\u00a0 Is that what you\u2019re saying?\u00a0 It\u2019s an uprising that\u2019s sort of wider and chaotic and across society?\u00a0<\/p>\n

MR HOOK:\u00a0 Well, I don\u2019t have any comment on whether there\u2019s a specific group that is doing this, but the fact that you saw protests across so many different cities \u2013 and I would also just point out none of these protests are against the United States.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

QUESTION:\u00a0 So the reason I bring up NCRI <\/a>\u2014\u00a0<\/p>\n

MR HOOK:\u00a0 Let\u2019s go to the next question.\u00a0<\/p>\n

QUESTION:\u00a0 NCRI<\/a>\/MEK <\/a>\u2014\u00a0<\/p>\n

MR HOOK:\u00a0 I don\u2019t have any comments on specific groups.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
