Why July 9th gathering?- message of James Bezan MP of Canada
 |
James BezanRemarks of Mr. James Bezan: Hello, I'm James Bezan, Member of Parliament … and the official opposition critic for national defense in the Canadian parliament.
I want to send my greetings to everybody that is planning on attending the
gathering of the People's Mojahedin and the National Council of Resistance of
Iran.
This is a very important time for everyone to come together and show their
support for the NCRI and also to condemn the continued human rights violations
of the Iranian regime. President Rouhani and Ayatollah Khamenei continue to
violate the international norms of the rule of law and the respecting the civil
liberties of their people.
I also want to ensure that all of us continue to stand up against Iran's
continued oppression of political activists by imprisoning them, by condemning
their actions against those practicing their freedom of religion and also
Iran's continued interference in Iraq, Syria, and Yemen by undermining UN
security forces as well as coalition partners who are in the fight against ISIS
and the atrocities being committed by the Assad regime in Syria.
I plead with everyone to continue to work towards the safety and security of
those who are living at Camp Liberty outside of Baghdad, and also plead upon
the government of Iraq and the US and the UN to ensure that their safety is
first and foremost during these very tenuous times in the battle against ISIS
in Iraq and Syria. And finally, I just want to confirm by support for Mrs.
Rajavi s ten point plan and ask the United Nations, the European Union, and the
United States and other allies, to stand with NCRI, the PMOI and really take
this positive position that will ultimately bring peace and security to the
region and democracy in Iran, itself. Again, please join everyone as the
gathering in Paris, for the gathering and showing their support for a free,
democratic Iran that will ultimately respect human rights and civil liberties.
Thank you very much
