NCRI – Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the National Council of Resistance participated in a meeting at the invitation of the Friends of a Free Iran intergroup in the European Parliament on Wednesday, March 27.
Mrs. Maryam Rajavi was the keynote speaker of the event. She provided an update on developments at Ashraf and Liberty and asked for urgent action by the EU to protect the 3100 Iranian refugees in Camp Liberty.
She said the residents of Liberty should be transferred to the US or a European country, even on a temporary basis, or the conditions should be set for the return of the residents to the relative safety of Camp Ashraf.
Several former senior UN and US officials who had held various responsibilities in Ashraf and Liberty in recent years were invited to speak as witnesses in the conference.
Dr. Tahar Boumedra, chief of the United Nations Assistance Mission in the Iraq (UNAMI) Human Rights Office, who resigned in May 2012 in protest at the conduct of Martin Kobler, testified about the policy of the Iraqi government and UNAMI regarding Ashraf.
