Baroness O’Loan addresses an online conference held by the NCRI on March 15, 2026<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

At an online conference<\/a> held by the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) on March 15, 2026, Baroness Nuala O’Loan, a member of the UK House of Lords, delivered a powerful message of solidarity with the Iranian people\u2019s struggle for freedom. Characterizing the current period as a “vitally important moment,” Baroness O\u2019Loan provided a sobering analysis of the clerical regime\u2019s escalating threats to international security and reaffirmed the legitimacy of the NCRI as the leading democratic alternative to religious fascism.<\/p>\n

During her address, Baroness O\u2019Loan highlighted the alarming rise in the regime\u2019s “diplomacy of terror,” noting that British security services have thwarted at least 15 kidnapping and assassination attempts against Iranian dissidents in the United Kingdom since 2022. Citing recent UK intelligence reports<\/a>, she described the regime\u2019s threat as “persistent” and “entirely unpredictable,” justifying the UK’s decision to designate Iran on the advanced tier of the Foreign Influence Registration Scheme.<\/p>\n

The Baroness issued a stern warning against the deceptive tactics of those promoting “monarchical illusions.” She specifically denounced supporters of the Shah\u2019s son for misappropriating the signatures of British Parliamentarians to manufacture false legitimacy.<\/span> Reaffirming that the future of Iran must be determined by the will of its people, she called for the immediate closure of the Iranian embassy in London and the expulsion of the regime’s “diplomat-terrorists” as a necessary step to protect democratic values and Iranian dissidents.<\/p>\n

Concluding her remarks, Baroness O’Loan saluted the “extraordinary courage” of NCRI President-elect Mrs. Maryam Rajavi<\/a>, noting her forty-year leadership in the face of deadly struggle. She emphasized that the NCRI and the Resistance Units<\/a> on the ground provide the only realistic framework for a secular and democratic republic in Iran.<\/p>\n
