In an opinion piece published<\/a> by La Tribune<\/span><\/span>, French parliamentarians including Christine Arrighi<\/span><\/span>, Andr\u00e9 Chassaigne<\/span><\/span>, and Philippe Gosselin<\/span><\/span> urge the formation of a broad, unified opposition to support a democratic transition in Iran.<\/p>\n Writing on behalf of the Committee for a Democratic Iran (CPID), the authors stress that Iran\u2019s opposition is diverse but shares a common rejection of dictatorship. They argue that attempts to impose unity from abroad are misguided and likely to fail, insisting that political change must emerge from within Iranian society itself. The lawmakers contend that neither conciliatory diplomacy nor recent military actions have succeeded in reforming the current regime.<\/p>\n They point to the National Council of Resistance of Iran\u2019s Ten-Point Plan<\/a> as an increasingly unifying framework, highlighting commitments to secularism, gender equality, minority rights, and the abolition of the death penalty. The signatories also denounce intensifying repression, including recent executions of opposition members.<\/p>\n They conclude by calling for international engagement with credible democratic forces rather than the ruling authorities.<\/p>\n Translated version of the original French article follows:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n OPINION. \u00ab\u00a0Quelles perspectives pour un Iran d\u00e9mocratique\u00a0?\u00a0\u00bb, par Philippe Gosselin, Christine Arrighi, et Andr\u00e9 Chassaigne https:\/\/t.co\/8v3OmxWMuQ<\/a><\/p>\n — La Tribune (@LaTribune) April 10, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
