Following a decree by the Mullahs’ President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, for a halt in cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency and the resumption of full-scale nuclear activities, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian Resistance, said: "The only way to confront and thwart the mullahs’ deceit and obfuscation is swift action and not giving them anymore time."
Mrs. Rajavi added that "surrendering to Tehran’s deceit and threats coupled with hesitation and delay in adopting a firm policy toward the Tehran regime provides the mullahs precisely the opportunity they seek to pursue their nuclear projects."
"Ahmadinejad’s remarks clearly show that the terrorist, religious dictatorship in Iran is bent on challenging the will of the world community and on advancing its ominous projects at acquiring nuclear weapons through deception and threats," Mrs. Rajavi emphasized, adding, "such behavior underlines the urgency of imposing comprehensive oil, arms, technological, and diplomatic sanctions on the regime."
