She described the new year as a turning point in Iran\u2019s struggle for liberty and expressed hope that the coming spring would witness the blossoming of a democratic revolution leading to a democratic republic.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mrs. Rajavi said that the \u201creal Nowruz of Iran\u201d will be one that is free of both the mullahs and the Shah, free of tyranny and dependence. She stressed that neither the ruling clerical regime nor the remnants of the monarchy can claim ownership over the sacrifices of those who fought and died for freedom, adding that unjustly shed blood ultimately gives rise to justice.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In her address, she praised political prisoners, <a href=\"https:\/\/english.mojahedin.org\/pmoi-resistance-units\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Resistance Units<\/a>, and members of the Liberation Army, describing them as the force of renewal and change in Iran. She paid tribute to those executed or killed in the struggle against the regime, saying their courage continues to inspire the movement for freedom.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mrs. Rajavi emphasized that, unlike the heirs of the ruling theocracy and the former monarchy, the Iranian Resistance seeks peace, freedom, justice, and independence, not power for its own sake. She said the goal is to transfer sovereignty to the people of Iran and establish a system based on popular will.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mrs. Rajavi argued that the experience of the past year had exposed the true nature of efforts to restore monarchy in Iran, warning that such a project would mean a return to repression and denial of the rights of society and oppressed nationalities. She said that throughout Iran\u2019s modern history, the Shah and the mullahs have been linked in sustaining oppression, and insisted that the Iranian people are determined to end this cycle once and for all.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-343688\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/maryam-rajavi-message-1405-nowruz.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"562\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/maryam-rajavi-message-1405-nowruz.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/maryam-rajavi-message-1405-nowruz-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/maryam-rajavi-message-1405-nowruz-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/maryam-rajavi-message-1405-nowruz-747x420.jpg 747w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/maryam-rajavi-message-1405-nowruz-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/maryam-rajavi-message-1405-nowruz-696x391.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">She also outlined the political vision of the Iranian Resistance, highlighting principles such as a democratic republic, separation of religion and state, autonomy for ethnic nationalities, gender equality, abolition of the death penalty, and a non-nuclear Iran living in peace with the world. She said these principles, reflected in the Resistance\u2019s Ten-Point Plan, represent the path toward a free, developed, and equal Iran.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Calling for solidarity and mutual support, Mrs. Rajavi urged Iranians to stand by families affected by repression, poverty, and the loss of loved ones in uprisings and resistance activities. She said helping those harmed by the regime\u2019s oppression and plunder is a national duty.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Looking to the future, Mrs. Rajavi said that the Iranian people\u2014through decades of sacrifice and uprisings from 1999 to 2025\u20132026\u2014will bring about a true Nowruz: one founded on free vote, popular sovereignty, and a republic chosen by the people themselves. She described tomorrow\u2019s Iran as a country of freedom, justice, social equality, scientific progress, and active participation by youth and women in shaping the nation\u2019s future.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">She concluded by expressing hope for the release of Iran\u2019s political prisoners and praying for a year in which the conditions of the Iranian people are transformed for the better.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.maryam-rajavi.com\/en\/message-for-nowruz-1405\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">To read Mrs. Maryam Rajavi\u2019s full Nowruz 1405 message, click here.<\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In her message for Nowruz 1405, which coincides this year with Eid al-Fitr, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of NCRI, congratulated the Iranian people and honored the memory of the martyrs [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":22,"featured_media":343687,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[204,222],"class_list":{"0":"post-343686","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-iran-resistance","8":"tag-maryam-rajavi","9":"tag-iranian-resistance"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
