Mayor Rudy Giuliani addresses a conference at the Italian Parliament on July 16, 2026<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Addressing an international conference<\/a> on July 16, 2026, at the Italian Parliament in Rome, former mayor of New York Rudy Giuliani delivered a fiery rebuke of Western appeasement, forcefully endorsing National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) President-elect Maryam Rajavi while dismissing any prospect of restoring the monarchy.<\/p>\n

Focusing on the transition of power, Mayor Giuliani asserted that the international community does not need to fear an uncertainty post-regime: \u201cWe can go from bad to the known. We know what we’re getting in Madame Rajavi<\/a> and we know what we’re getting in the MEK and the NCRI and the various groups that have been working… for 47 years… for one purpose and one purpose alone: Freedom for the Iranian people.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mayor Giuliani explicitly rejected the monarchist movement and Reza Pahlavi<\/a>, describing him as the \u201cchild of a murderer and a thief\u201d who remains surrounded by remnants of the notorious SAVAK secret police. Mocking proposals to reinstate the Pahlavi dynasty, Mayor Giuliani declared, \u201cWhen they give you the Shah, bring him to me. And tell him, yeah, when he returns the money that he stole and the food that he took out of the mouths of his people, maybe we can give him a job in the post office.\u201d<\/p>\n

Highlighting the NCRI’s preparedness, Mayor Giuliani pointed to its structured transition plan and Ten-Point platform, emphasizing its robust guarantees for civil rights and gender equality. Condemning decades of Western hesitation, he argued that \u201cwords don’t combat terrorists… that’s appeasement,\u201d calling on world leaders to stand up and state: \u201cWe got an answer, MEK is the answer<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

An honor to speak in front of this distinguished group. There is an alternative to the current evil regime of Mullahs and IRGC. @Maryam_Rajavi<\/a> offers a framework for a democratic republic. She is poised to offer an interim government and hold a free and fair election in six\u2026 https:\/\/t.co\/3E1qsp0pmQ<\/a><\/p>\n
