NCRI supporters together with other Iranian opposition groups held a rally in London on March 28, 2026<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The heart of London became a focal point for the Iranian pro-democracy movement on March 28, 2026, as a massive gathering at Marble Arch called for a fundamental shift in how the West engages with Tehran. Iranian expatriates, joined by British lawmakers and human rights advocates, voiced a powerful endorsement for the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) as a viable provisional government. The atmosphere was charged with a sense of historical urgency, with participants arguing that the current Iranian regime has lost all internal legitimacy and that a structured transition toward a secular republic is the only path forward.<\/p>\n

Speaker after speaker took to the podium to convey a message of resilience and political readiness. Naghmeh Rajabi<\/strong> opened the remarks by describing how the spirit of the Iranian uprising persists despite heavy-handed repression, emphasizing that the “Resistance Units”<\/a> within the country remain a beacon for those seeking to overthrow the current theocracy.<\/p>\n

This sentiment was echoed by Hossein Abedini<\/strong>, the NCRI’s Deputy Representative in the UK, who illustrated a nationwide map of resistance that stretches from the streets of Tehran to the furthest corners of Khuzestan and Kurdistan. He suggested that the sheer persistence of the Iranian people has now brought the regime to a tipping point.<\/p>\n
