The
Iran of tomorrow will be a nuclear-free Iran at peace with all nations in the
world. In recent days, the earthquake, the tsunami and the explosion of nuclear
power plants in Japan have caused distressing tragedies. On behalf of the
Iranian people and Resistance, I offer our sympathies to the nation of Japan.
These catastrophes, however, proved that the secret and illegal nuclear program
of the Iranian regime is a thousand times more dangerous to the lives of the
people of our nation. We do not want a nuclear Iran. BERLIN, 19 MARCH 2011
The equality of all
nationalities
We
are committed to the equality of all nationalities. We underscore the plan for
the autonomy of Iranian Kurdistan, adopted by the National Council of
Resistance of Iran. The language and culture of our compatriots from whatever
nationality, are among our nation’s human resources and must spread and be
promulgated in tomorrow’s Iran. Platform for Future of Iran-June 22 2013 In the
Iran of tomorrow the just right to autonomy of the people of Kurdistan will be
recognized. We seek the eradication of dual discrimination against all ethnic
minorities in Iran in the framework of the country's indivisible territorial
integrity. We say the existence of ethnic minorities in Iran comprises a great and
effective force for toppling the mullahs' regime and achieving freedom.
Therefore, we should value this multi-cultural and multi-lingual character of
our nation. Our compatriots who are from different nationalities, cultures and
languages, must be able to equally participate in national decision-makings.
They must be able to preserve their cultural, religious and lingual identity.
They must be able to speak, work and study in their mother tongues and promote
them. Our Iran is an amazingly beautiful garden with freedom and popular
sovereignty. Baluchies and Kurds, Arabs and Lors, Bakhtiaries and Turkomans,
Azeries and followers of various ethnic groups and faiths are the colorful,
lovely flowers of Iran's garden.
Rights of Iranian Workers and
Toilers
Workers
lost their jobs and livelihood in the course of the unremitting trend of
factories going bankrupt … The sale and fraudulent auctions of factories, the
economic corruption and expansion of black markets, also the bankruptcy of
banks and stepped-up import of foreign goods, target Iran's workers as their
prime victims. Also, the treacherous policy of allocating a lion's share of the
country's revenues to the war and massacre in Syria, has made Iranian workers
ever poorer and destitute. For years, the minimum wage of workers has remained
at one dollar per hour… while the one-dollar-an-hour wage of Iranian laborers
is not even one-fourth of workers' wage in the world's most crisis-riddled
economies, such as Greece…. The Tsunami of lay-offs and dismissals has intensified
under Rowhani's government, and group after group of workers join the
millions-strong army of unemployed every day… Those who have not lost their
jobs are under pressure of having not received their wages while they do not
have any job security since they were forced to sign white and temporary
contracts to have a job. According to the Iranian regime's Labor Ministry, 93%
of the country's working force is working under such contracts. This is one of
the regime's most cruel plans designed to subjugate workers and compel them
into cheap labor. Iranian workers are among the world's least-paid and most
vulnerable work force who face constant threat of dismissal and the lowest job
security. Despite the horrific economic stagnation in Iran, it is the ruling
mullahs' overlooking of the fate of workers that contributes most significantly
to their victimization as a result of criminal policies. The various regime
factions also share interest in the plunder of the product of workers' lives
and energy and crackdown on their legitimate protests. This is why workers'
conditions deteriorate every year as attested by official figures and reports.
It is impossible to gain the minimum rights of Iranian workers and toilers
without a regime change. Freedom of independent organizations, the right to
stage strikes and protest gatherings, abolition of temporary and white
contracts, disbanding of major contractors of labor force, prompt payment of
wages and all past-due demands, provision of health and unemployment insurance
and other demands of workers threaten the regime's existence because they bring
about freedom for workers to various degrees. So, achieving every single one of
such demands is intertwined with the struggle for regime change.
An advanced and free education
system
The
following are the most important demands of Iranian teachers as declared in
their demonstrations and published statements. They clearly seek to smash the
tyrannical regime prevailing Iran’s education:
•
Freedom of imprisoned teachers;
• Recognition of the education faculty's right to protest;
• Provision of student's rights;
• Freedom of guild activity;
• Participation of teachers in educational structures;
• Establishment of a pro bono system of education; and
• Elimination of discrimination and inequality against teachers.
Tomorrow's
Iran needs an advanced education system which would be mandatory and free for
all children of Iran. Such a system must be free of any political and cultural
subjugation and promote political participation of all citizens.
We also need a democratic higher education based on independence of
institutions of higher education and recognition of academic freedom.
We need a comprehensive athletic regime based on the fundamental principle of
indiscriminate and free access of all youths and youngsters in every city and
village to sports accommodations and which provides for free and equal
participation of women and girls in various athletic fields across the country.
We say the existence of ethnic minorities in Iran comprises a great and
effective force for toppling the mullahs' regime and achieving freedom.
Therefore, we should value this multi-cultural and multi-lingual character of
our nation.
Our compatriots who are from different nationalities, cultures and languages,
must be able to equally participate in national decision-makings. They must be
able to preserve their cultural, religious and lingual identity. They must be
able to speak, work and study in their mother tongues and promote them.
We are determined to remove all forms of suppression and censorship. This is
the freeway that leads to a democratic regime.
We are determined to provide the conditions for free choice, to flourish
political participation through freedom of expression and unrestricted
activity, and to pave the way for a thriving political participation.
Let us open the gates of the world and all its knowledge and information on
Iranian youths.
We insist on equality of all Iranian citizens;
Everyone's equality in electing and getting elected;
Equality of men and women in all political, social, economic and family rights;
And everyone's enjoyment of equal opportunities for education, higher
education, employment and business.
Yes, we are seeking a new order based on freedom, democracy and equality.
The force for this great transformation, is you, the conscious and
freedom-loving youths of Iran and I call on all of you to rise for the
establishment of a free and democratic Iran.
