The political landscape in Iran is undergoing a massive transformation as citizens face immense pressure from internal repression and external conflicts.
Kyiv Post’s Jason Jay Smart sits down to discuss these urgent developments with Shahin Gobadi, a member of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI).
As the Parliament in exile of the Iranian Resistance, the NCRI provides crucial insights into the daily realities for the Iranian people fighting for a democratic future.
Despite severe threats from the regime, millions of Iranians have recently protested across all thirty-one provinces to demand an end to the theocracy. A deeply organized resistance network is rapidly growing inside the country to challenge the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
Gobadi explains how these brave Resistance Units play a vital role in directing protests and protecting citizens. Furthermore, the National Council of Resistance of Iran has outlined a comprehensive ten-point plan for a transitional government. This provisional leadership aims to ensure gender equality, the separation of religion and state, and a non-nuclear Iran.
International dynamics are shifting as the regime finds itself isolated on the global stage. While the government historically relied on Russia for survival, that support is proving insufficient. The Iranian people continue building unstoppable momentum toward a secular republic.
