People’s Mojahedin of Iran (PMOI/MEK) supporters and pro-freedom Iranians held protests against the mullahs’ regime in Iran. These protests took place in recent days in Rome, Cologne, Stuttgart, Oslo, and Copenhagen in Germany, as well as Amsterdam in the Netherlands, Oslo, and Copenhagen in Norway.
In Amsterdam, protesters denounced President Ebrahim Raisi of the Iranian regime for his direct involvement in the summer 1988 prison massacre that killed over 30,000 political prisoners, the majority of whom were PMOI/MEK members and supporters.
As Raisi plans to attend the upcoming United Nations General Assembly in New York next month, the protesters are also urging the American government to deny him a visa, arguing that he should be detained and tried for crimes against humanity and human rights violations. Additionally, these protesters demanded that the West abandon its disastrous appeasement strategy toward the Tehran-based mullahs.

Iranians who support freedom and PMOI/MEK supporters demonstrated in Oslo and demanded that the mullahs’ government be overthrown by the Iranian people. They shouted, “Death to Khamenei and damned be Khomeini!” in reference to both the current regime’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, and his predecessor, Ruhollah Khomeini, also known as the man who established the Iranian mullahs’ regime.
They also chanted “Hail to Rajavi!” in reference to Maryam Rajavi, the president-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), and Massoud Rajavi, the leader of the Iranian Resistance. The NCRI coalition’s key component is the PMOI/MEK.

Another group of PMOI/MEK supporters and freedom-loving Iranians gathered in Cologne to commemorate the over 30,000 people who died in Iran’s summer 1988 massacre and to denounce the mullahs’ regime for its heinous atrocities over the preceding four decades.
Participants in a meeting in Stuttgart, Germany, denounced Ebrahim Raisi’s policies and violations of human rights in Iran, particularly in light of a recent rise in the number of executions there.
Supporters of the PMOI/MEK and the NCRI coalition gathered in Rome to pay tribute to the victims of the 1988 massacre in Iran and to demand that the international community aid the Iranian people in their ongoing fight for freedom, democracy, and human rights in that country.

Iranians who value freedom in Copenhagen, Denmark, denounced the Belgian government’s agreement with the Iranian government, which will result in the release of Tehran’s imprisoned diplomat-terrorist Assadollah Assadi.
The protesters shouted, “Releasing the bomber is an approval of murder and killing sprees.” They emphasized that there is no need for a new Middle East war and that the West should stop appeasing the mullahs’ regime by calling for a regime change in Iran led by the Iranian people. Finally, the Danish government was urged to expel Iran’s ambassador by the Iranian expatriates living there.
