PARIS: Operation Decisive Storm, aimed at preventing Iran’s expansion into Yemen, forced Iranian leaders “to drink the nuclear poison,” said Maryam Radjavi, leader of the Iranian opposition.
Speaking on the second day of the annual meeting of the National Council of Resistance of Iran in Le Bourget, near Paris, she said forcing the hard-liners to capitulate to the UN Security Council resolutions is the only way to prevent them from obtaining the nuclear bomb. She called for a democratic non-nuclear Iran.
Radjavi, president of the National Council for Resistance in Iran (NCRI), said the Decisive Storm and the regional coalition against the aggression of Iran’s religious fascism in Yemen, the impact of the crippling sanctions as well as successive US Congress’ warnings “finally compelled the clerical regime to reluctantly take one more step back after 16 months of talks.”
She explained that this retreat was out of fear and pressure and in clear contradiction to the guidelines given by their supreme leader Ali Khamenei two weeks ago.
Radjavi warned that “leniency and unwarranted concessions by the P5+1 to the least trustworthy regime in the world today only grants it more time and further aggravate the dangers it poses to the Iranian people, to the region and to the wider world.”
