A new editorial in Modern Diplomacy argues that the Iranian regime must answer for its actions in the 1988 Massacre of 30,000 MEK political prisoners before the United States negotiates a new nuclear deal. The piece, written by R. Bruce McColm, stresses that while preventing Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon is important, it “must not be allowed to continue overshadowing Iran’s responsibility for terrorism and systematic human rights violations. These matters represent a much more imminent threat to human life.”
On April 26, the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) Women’s Committee released a report detailing the Iranian regime’s rejection of women from public life. The report lists women’s participation in elected and appointed positions in Iran from the office of President on down and highlights the gender gap in all levels of government.

On April 19, The National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), and the People’s Mujahedin of Iran (PMOI / MEK Iran), reported that the regime officials announced that Iranians would now have to pay for a Covid-19 vaccine if they wanted to be protected from the virus anytime soon. The news comes on the heels of a failed vaccine rollout that has left Iranians frustrated and angry at the government for not doing more to protect them during the pandemic.
(PMOI / MEK Iran) and (NCRI): Iranian Regime’s Attempts to Fix Economy will Only Make it Worse.
The National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), and the People’s Mujahedin of Iran (PMOI / MEK Iran), reported that the Iranian regime entered the Persian New Year facing the same twin economic and social crises that have dogged it for four decades. The regime’s repressive rule of its citizens, coupled with its single-minded focus on oil production has created an unstable economy full of angry and impoverished people.

(PMOI / MEK Iran) and (NCRI): Recent reports reveal just how many doctors and nurses have been felled by the coronavirus. 80,000 Nurses Have Contracted Covid-19 Since Pandemic Began.
The Covid-19 pandemic has taken the lives of more than 258,900 Iranians in 539 cities over the last fifteen months, according to statistics gathered by the MEK. Iran’s Covid-19 crisis has been exacerbated by a shortage of healthcare workers caused by high rates of infection by front-line medical workers. Recent reports reveal just how many doctors and nurses have been felled by the coronavirus.

Iran Human Rights Monitor released a new report on the Iranian regime’s use of the death penalty since regime President Hassan Rouhani took office in 2013. The report, which was released on April 13 and co-authored by Together Against the Death Penalty, found that executions increased during Rouhani’s tenure, despite his purported status as a “reformist.” These findings support the MEK’s long-standing belief that Rouhani’s promises of reform are without merit.

(NCRI) and (PMOI / MEK Iran): The regime takes pains to present itself as largely democratic.
Iran’s upcoming presidential election is generating renewed interest from the international community in the regime’s political structure. The regime takes pains to present itself as largely democratic, so the election of a new president draws attention from outsiders hoping for moderate leadership. Unfortunately, the outcome of Iran’s elections is mostly meaningless because the candidates all must be approved by the clerical Guardian Council, and all decisions made by the President must be approved by the regime’s Supreme Leader.

(NCRI) and (PMOI / MEK Iran): MEK supporters hold signs calling for a halt on executions in Iran.
The Iranian regime executed at least 17 people between April 4 and 12, according to reports from human rights activists and state-run media. Iran Human Rights Monitor reported that Iran has now officially executed 90 prisoners in 2021, but it emphasized that the true number is much higher because of the regime’s habit of executing prisoners in secrecy. The most recent round of hangings falls on the eve of the holy month of Ramadan.

(NCRI) and (PMOI / MEK Iran): Regime officials and state-run media have been forced to acknowledge the influence of the MEK in organizing protests.
The Iranian regime will hold its presidential election on June 18, and the future of the regime may depend on its outcome. The ruling government has been rocked by domestic and foreign crises that have left it isolated from the international community, economically unstable, and roiled with social unrest.
(NCRI) and (PMOI / MEK Iran): Internet access is filtered in Iran under the ruling religious dictatorship.
Protests are on the rise in Iran this year, with several high-profile demonstrations making news. In late February, protests broke out across Sistan and Baluchestan Province after several fuel porters were shot dead by Revolutionary Guards (IRGC).
