IRAN: JUDICIARY'S GRUDGE AGAINST PMOI /MEK

by Poorang Novak

In reaction to Resistance of Iran’s efforts to hold the Iranian regime accountable for its 1988 massacre of more than 30,000 political prisoners and crime against humanity, and due to increasing international isolation of the mullahs’ anti-human regime for their violation of human rights, regime judiciary’s ‘Mizan’ news agency has released a report, seeking vengeance against The People's Mojahedin Organization Of Iran (PMOI /MEK) while hysterically attacking human rights defenders.

In an article titled “exploring EU’s political motives behind human rights excuses” and “human rights frauds (against the regime)”, the news agency writes:

Human-rights-labeled resolutions and sanctions are outdated tools that have now turned into a diplomatically-dressed hostility as well as a political and economic misconduct by the EU and its allies.

Signed by 265 MEPs, a statement against the Islamic Republic was issued in June this year by a pro-PMOI (MEK) European Parliament, known for having strong relations with the group.

Gerard Deprez, Belgium’s representative in the European Parliament, who drafted the statement, is the head of the so-called Friends of a Free Iran, a group known for its close relations with PMOI (MEK). Prior to this, Europeans used to support PMOI (MEK), but only in secret. Now, however, their support has become quite evident. For instance, the Czech Republic’s representative in the European Parliament has encouraged the EU to actively support PMOI (MEK). Jan Zaharadil, who opposes making any concessions to Tehran, said “the EU must cooperate (with PMOI /MEK and Maryam Rajavi).”

There are plenty of such positions within the EU, including the ones taken by France, another EU country and the so-called cradle of democracy.
