Mrs. Rajavi: Resolution of the Board of Governors is not sufficient, activation of the snapback mechanism clause and referral to the Security Council is necessary
Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), described the resolution of the IAEA Board of Governors, which condemned the repeated violations by the Iranian regime, as inevitable and necessary but wholly inadequate. The resolution was adopted with 20 votes in favor and 2 against. Mrs. Rajavi emphasized that in view of the regime’s continued defiance and violations of UN Resolution 2231, it is time for the immediate application of the snapback mechanism. She urged that all resolutions concerning the regime’s nuclear activities be enforced and that the nuclear file be referred to the United Nations Security Council. This action is long overdue., she said.
Mrs. Rajavi noted that adopting a firm policy against the mullahs’ regime, including the use of the snapback mechanism, referring its nuclear dossier to the Security Council, placing the regime under Chapter VII of the UN Charter, naming the IRGC as a terrorist organization, and recognizing the resistance and the struggle of the resistance units and the rebellious youth against the suppressive Revolutionary Guards, is an imperative for security and tranquility in this critical region of the world, and for preventing a belligerent dictatorship from obtaining the atomic bomb.
Since 1991, the Iranian Resistance has revealed details of the Iranian regime’s nuclear weapons program in over 100 news conferences, including the exposure of crucial, secretive sites like Natanz and Arak in 2002. Despite these efforts, a policy of appeasement, endless negotiations, and undue concessions have allowed the regime to advance its nuclear ambitions without significant repercussions, providing it with ample opportunity. A month ago, a key adviser to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and the head of the regime’s Strategic Council on Foreign Relations spoke of changing the regime’s “nuclear doctrine” towards building a nuclear bomb, brazenly stating that the regime “has the capacity to produce a nuclear bomb.”
