Iranians alongside supporters of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) rallied to voice their concern over the international community’s failure to address the Iranian regime’s nuclear violations and its ambitions to acquire nuclear weaponry. This event marks a pivotal moment in the ongoing discourse surrounding Iran’s nuclear program, spotlighting the call for urgent international action.
The protestors underscored the necessity of reactivating snapback sanctions and advocated for the European Union and the global community to recognize the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), the entity spearheading Iran’s nuclear initiatives, as a terrorist organization. Additionally, they demanded the reinstatement of six United Nations Security Council resolutions and proposed that Iran’s nuclear dossier be referred to the Security Council, recommending oversight under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter.
A notable voice at the protest was Mr. Leo Dautzenberg, former German Federal Parliament representative and Chairman of the German Solidarity Committee for a Free Iran. He expressed grave concerns regarding Iran’s ongoing uranium enrichment activities and advancements in ballistic missile technology, emphasizing the imminent threat posed to regional and European stability. Dautzenberg criticized the ineffectiveness of past nuclear negotiations and the international community’s appeasement policy, which he argued had enabled the regime to covertly expand its nuclear arsenal within unmonitored military facilities.

Dautzenberg’s critique extended to the sanctions against Russia and Iran, pointing out their limited impact and the ease with which these regimes circumvent international restrictions. He called for a renewed strategy to counter Iran’s nuclear ambitions, including the formal designation of the IRGC as a terrorist entity and enhanced diplomatic efforts to curb the regime’s illicit undertakings.
Highlighting the disinformation campaign waged by the Iranian regime and its supporters in the West, Dautzenberg pointed out the misrepresentation of opposition groups like the NCRI and the People’s Mojahedin of Iran (PMOI/MEK). He challenged the narrative that denies the existence of opposition within Iran, referencing the regime’s oppressive actions against its citizens and dissenters as evidence of a vibrant resistance movement striving for change.
