NCRI President-elect addresses a conference in Geneva, Switzerland, on November 20, 2025<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Against the backdrop of a dramatic surge in state-sanctioned executions in Iran and a landmark resolution by the United Nations Third Committee, a high-level conference was convened in Geneva on November 20, 2025. The event brought together distinguished European lawmakers, former United Nations special rapporteurs, legal experts, and Iranian activists to address the deteriorating human rights situation under the clerical regime.<\/p>\n

The conference served as a platform to denounce the “killing machine” of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and to advocate for a decisive shift in international policy. Speakers unanimously rejected the policy of appeasement, calling instead for a “Third Option”: supporting the Iranian people\u2019s desire for regime change and recognizing their organized resistance movement.<\/p>\n

The gathering focused heavily on the alarming statistics regarding capital punishment in Iran, the legacy of the 1988 massacre<\/a> of political prisoners, and the necessity of referring the regime’s dossier to the UN Security Council.<\/p>\n

Maryam Rajavi: The Slaughter is Khamenei\u2019s War Against the People<\/h2>\n

The keynote address<\/a> was delivered by Maryam Rajavi, the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI). Mrs. Rajavi framed the current wave of violence not merely as judicial malpractice, but as a strategic war waged by a fragile dictatorship against its own population.<\/p>\n

Mrs. Rajavi highlighted the grim reality inside Iran\u2019s penitentiaries, describing a “bloodbath unfolding inside Iran\u2019s prisons.” She provided stark statistics to illustrate the escalation of violence: while 865 people were hanged two years ago and one thousand the previous year, the regime has already executed 1,650 individuals in 2025. She emphasized that thousands more await execution, including political prisoners such as Zahra Tabari<\/a> and Mohammad Javad Vafaei Sani<\/a>.<\/p>\n
