Thousands gather in Villepinte to support Iranian opposition

BBC News, June 19, 2011 –Thousands participated in a gathering in Villepinte north of Paris to express their support for the Iranian opposition. Iranian dissident Maryam Rajavi called for UN supervision over a camp of People’s Mojahedin Organization north of Baghdad since this camp was attacked April of this year. European and American political figures along with a large number of Iranians living in various European countries took part in this rally.


Maryam Rajavi: I believe the Iranian regime is weaker than before and we are optimistic that uprisings can continue in Iran, and I believe protecting Camp Ashraf residents is necessary for the Iranian people because they are the symbol of perseverance, hope and will. Therefore, to continue protests in Iran we must protect the camp’s residents.”
