NCRI – Following the courageous nationwide uprising on June 20 and the regime’s barbaric clampdown on protestors, which led to 150 deaths and thousands injured or arrested, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian Resistance, said: The uprising on Saturday proved wrong those who wanted to introduce the mullahs’ regime as strong and stable. It showed that Iranian society is fully ready for democratic change.

Reiterating that the only solution for Iran is democratic change and dismantling of all suppressive organs of the regime and free UN-supervised elections, she urged the UN Security Council and all members of the international community to take the following action:

1. To not recognise the results of the regime’s bogus election and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s Presidency and instead make the regime to accept free UN-supervised elections based on popular rule instead of the system of the velayate faqih, or supreme rule of clergy.

2. To suspend all political and diplomatic ties with the regime until a complete halt to the suppression.

3. Impose trade, diplomatic, arms and technological sanctions on the regime.

4. Refer the criminal file of the leaders of the regime, in particular its Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, Ahmadinejad and other officials involved in the suppression and killings, to an international tribunal.

5.Bar the regime’s leaders from travelling abroad.
