I welcome the UK government’s decision to proscribe the Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
This move, though long overdue, is essential for regional and global peace, stability, and security.
From the very outset, the Iranian Resistance has identified the IRGC as the principal organ of coercion and repression of the religious fascism ruling Iran.
I deeply appreciate more than four decades of dedicated efforts by members of both the House of Commons and the House of Lords, particularly the members of the British Committee for Iran Freedom, in advocating the proscription of the IRGC and exposing its atrocities against the people of Iran.
.@BobBlackman, UK MP and Chairman of the British Committee for Iran Freedom
It has long been the goal of the UK—both in our cross-party efforts—that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps should be classified as a terrorist entity and their assets sequestrated.
I’m pleased to say finally, the UK government put through legislation which allows us now to designate the IRGC as a terrorist organization.
Salutes to the brave retirees who took to the streets today in Kermanshah, Shush, Ahwaz, Dezfoul, Tehran, Rasht and other cities of Iran.
Braving oppressive heat, they demanded their basic rights with powerful slogans:
"Our rights are only won on the streets!"
"Stop the warmongering, our tables are empty!"
"Inflation and high prices—No to war and destruction!"
"Free imprisoned workers and teachers!"
They made it clear: the root of the crisis is the warmongering dictatorship robbing the people of their sovereignty. The only path forward is through protest and uprising.
Our plan for the future is an Iran without the death penalty
The Iranian Resistance declared years ago that it calls for the abolition of the death penalty and an end to torture and all forms of human rights abuses in Iran.

The central issue is this: change in Iran requires a force capable of bringing about that change.
It requires a force that can fight under the harshest repression; a force that can stand shoulder to shoulder with the people’s uprising and remove the Revolutionary Guards from the path of the Iranian people.

I offer my deepest condolences on the sorrowful passing of Reza Olia, a distinguished master of art and resistance, who departed this life today, Thursday, July 9, in Italy.
My sympathies go out to the Chair and members of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), as well as to the community of freedom-loving and committed Iranian artists.
He was a sublime and rare example of a resistance artist whose name will forever remain alive in the history of Iranian art.
Reza Olia’s unwavering commitment to principles and his steadfast adherence to the red lines of the Iranian people's democratic revolution against both the Shah and the Mullahs was renowned among resistance members, allies, and supporters, and a source of immense pride. In this regard, he truly stands as a master and teacher for the younger generation of artists.
To the remnants of this regime, we say: whichever path you choose, uprising and overthrow await you.
Against the rebellious youth and the rebellious cities of Iran, your missile cities are powerless.
Against an organized uprising, your staged street spectacles are of no avail, and the daily execution of political prisoners will not save your regime.

My commitment is to defend Iran’s freedom, honor, and independence against every form of dictatorship and every form of subjugation, however arduous and winding the road may be, through its seven trials of hardship and suffering.
But what of that?
We remain steadfast in this covenant.
Iran: Today, our thoughts are with all prisoners facing execution and the resilient souls choosing resistance for liberty. From the depths of their cells, their voices echo: "No to Executions."
The defiant words of heroic PMOI freedom fighter Vahid Bani-Amerian ring loud against the Supreme Leader:
"Be certain that if you execute me and my peers, we will only multiply. Even if you hide our bodies, your regime cannot escape its ultimate downfall."

The National Council of Resistance of Iran Held Its Two-Day Session
The session reviewed the economic and social situation inside the captive homeland and the living conditions of the people of Iran.
It concluded that although the regime is trying to control accumulated grievances and the revolutionary crisis by intensifying repression, escalating executions, and creating an atmosphere of fear and terror, it cannot escape the explosion of the people’s anger.

Iran: Salute to the brave people of Garmsar and Aradan who have risen up and blocked the railway to protest the theft of their water rights. Not only has agricultural water been cut off, threatening their farms and orchards with destruction, but they are now deprived of basic drinking water.
For 47 years, the plundering regime has stolen our freedom. Now, to sustain their illegitimate rule, they are stealing the people's resources, even our water, to fund domestic suppression and anti-national nuclear, missile, and warmongering projects.
The only path forward is protest and up
rising to establish a democratic republic rooted in popular sovereignty, democracy, and justice.
A peaceful, non-nuclear Iran is possible only through the overthrow of this regime by the Iranian people and their organized Resistance.

J'apprécie la décision du gouvernement britannique d'inscrire le Corps des Gardiens de la révolution (CGRI) sur sa liste des organisations terroristes, même si elle a tardé à venir.
Cette mesure est essentielle à la paix, à la stabilité et à la sécurité dans la région et dans le monde. La Résistance iranienne a dénoncé dès le départ le CGRI comme l'organe central de la violence et de la répression du fascisme religieux en Iran.
Je tiens à saluer les efforts déployés pendant quatre décennies par les membres de la Chambre des communes et de la Chambre des Lords du Royaume-Uni, et plus particulièrement par les membres des Comités britanniques pour un Iran libre, en vue de l'inscription du CGRI et de la dénonciation de leurs agissements contre le peuple iranien.
Je salue les retraités mobilisés en Iran qui sont descendus aujourd’hui dans les rues de Kermanchah, Chouch, Ahwaz, Dezfoul, Téhéran, Racht et d’autres villes pour défendre leurs droits les plus élémentaires malgré une chaleur accablante.
Avec des slogans tels que « Ce n’est que dans la rue que nous obtiendrons nos droits », « Le bellicisme ça suffit, nos tables sont vides », « Inflation et vie chère, non à la guerre et aux destructions », ou encore « Libérez les travailleurs et enseignants emprisonnés », ils ont montré que le cœur du problème se trouve dans la confiscation de la souveraineté populaire par la dictature des mollahs, et que la solution passe par le soulèvement et la protestation.
Notre plan pour demain est un Iran sans exécution
La Résistance iranienne a déclaré il y a des années qu’elle appelle à l’abolition de la peine de mort et à la fin de la torture et de toutes les formes de violation des droits humains en Iran.

L’essentiel est que le changement en Iran exige une force motrice. Une force capable de lutter sous une répression maximale. Une force qui, aux côtés du soulèvement populaire, écartera les Gardiens de la révolution de la voie du peuple iranien.

C’est avec une profonde tristesse que j’ai appris la disparition en Italie de Maître Reza Olia, peintre, sculpteur et éminente figure de la lutte et de l’art en Iran, qui s’est éteint ce jeudi 9 juillet.
J’adresse mes plus sincères condoléances au président et aux membres du Conseil national de la Résistance iranienne, ainsi qu’à l’ensemble des artistes iraniens libres et engagés.
Reza Olia incarnait l’un des plus nobles et des plus rares exemples d’artistes combattants, dont le nom demeurera vivant et gravé à jamais dans l’histoire de l’art iranien.
Sa fidélité inébranlable à ses principes et son attachement sans compromis aux lignes de démarcation de la révolution démocratique du peuple iranien contre le chah et les mollahs étaient unanimement reconnus par les membres, les compagnons et les sympathisants de la Résistance, et faisaient la fierté de tous.
À ce titre, il fut véritablement un maître et un guide pour toute une génération de jeunes artistes.
Nous disons aux vestiges de la dictature religieuse : quelle que soit la direction que vous empruntez, le soulèvement et le renversement vous y attendent.
Face aux rebelles et aux villes insurgées d’Iran, vos cités de missiles ne peuvent rien.
Face à un soulèvement organisé, vos mises en scène le soir dans les rues ne sauront résoudre vos problèmes, et les exécutions quotidiennes de prisonniers politiques ne sauveront pas votre régime.
