NCRI – While meeting of the five permanent veto-wielding members of the UN Security Council was on the way in Berlin today to discuss plans on mullahs’ nuclear ambitions, dozens of Iranians held a rally outside the German Foreign Ministry to call for comprehensive sanctions against the religious dictatorship in Iran.
As the Iranian regime remained defiant on Thursday over its controversial nuclear activities, refusing to halt uranium enrichment work despite intensified international pressure and adoption of a Security Council statement, the participants in the rally called for an end to any negotiations with the regime. "To have nuclear bombs is part of the mullahs’ strategy for survival and they cannot give in. The clerics are only trying to buy more time to complete their nuclear program and the fruitless talks in the past three years has just served this purpose," said the spokeswomen for Iranians outside German Foreign Ministry.
"It is now time to support democratic change in Iran and to this end recognize the National Council of Resistance of Iran as the main opposition to mullahs’ dictatorship," she said. Demonstrators held portraits of Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the NCRI who offered change in Iran through Iranian people to avoid a military intervention which is the ultimate consequence of the policy of appeasement of the mullahs.
At the end of the Berlin meeting, British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw said: "We have shown very great patience with Iran, they in turn have miscalculated. They thought the international community would be divided on this issue but, truthfully, it has become more and more united."
Britain, China, France, Russia and the United States on Wednesday put aside weeks of differences to agree a non-binding statement giving Iran 30 days to abandon its uranium enrichment activities.
