The participants expressed their support for members of the PMOI residing in Ashraf City in Iraq and demanded their rights under international law be respected.
The Finnish daily Hufvudstadsbladet (HBL) reported: “The protestors said that France is defying the ruling of the highest court in the EU and is thus paving the way for a human catastrophe for the Iranian opposition and Europe”.
Similar protests were held in various European capitals. In Paris hundreds of supporters of the PMOI demonstrated outside the French Foreign Ministry on Tuesday demanding an end to the blacklisting of the PMOI.
