November 2022

Simultaneous protests in more than 70 large and small cities, demonstrations in a large number of universities in the country, students coming to the streets in a number of cities, strikes by iron smelting workers and a number of production units, joining shops and markets to protests in different cities on the anniversary of the uprising of November 2019 showed that the revolutionary movement is still advancing and has no intention of standing still. The movement is in an offensive position and the government is in a defensive position.

The Left Party of Iran (People’s Fadaian) welcomes the formation of a fact-finding commission by the United Nations Human Rights Council and considers this action a major step in identifying and prosecuting criminals and oppressors of the Iranian people.

Let us not leave the people of Kurdistan alone against the murderers of the corrupt regime of the Islamic Republic. Let us break the news silence about the regime's crimes in Kurdistan. By being in the streets and protesting and striking all over the country, we should force the regime to retreat and break the siege of the suffering people of the cities of Kurdistan.

We call on you to act in every viable way against these terrible events in Iran and to protect the lives of children from the aggression of the regime. The United Nations and other competent international organizations are expected to come up with solution to save the lives of children in Iran and force the Islamic Republic to respect the rights of children and the relevant protocols approved by the United Nations.

The left party of Iran (People’s Fadaian) calls on the combatant people of other cities and regions to support the people of Mahabad. With the expansion of the combat in other cities, it is possible to help the people of Mahabad and prevent the Islamic Republic from going to war with the people of Mahabad by mobilizing its forces from other regions with heavy weapons.

We, six Iranian democratic republican organizations and Parties consider the issuance and carrying out of the death penalty against the dissenters as an evident state crime and strongly condemn it. We request the freedom loving organs, political and civil activists and groups, the Iranians inside and abroad and the international bodies to rise, together with the Iranian people against the “death courts” of the Islamic Republic, to press the Islamic regime to abolish these courts and to free all political detainees.

Nasrin Sotoudeh, a lawyer who defends political and civil prisoners and a human rights activist, has been imprisoned many times because of her activities and is still imprisoned. She is one of the leading figures against the death penalty and human rights violations in Iran. Awarding her this award by the International Congress against the Death Penalty is an international recognition of her efforts over the past several decades.

In line with the calls of local youth organizations in different cities, university students across the country, and cultural organizations, we call our compatriots to widely participate in protests and strikes against the criminal regime of the Islamic Republic. The united power of the people against the oppressors is the key to freeing the country from the corrupt and criminal regime of the Islamic Republic.

We call on you to take every possible measures to prevent the imminent executions that threaten the lives of the arrested and to emphasize to the Islamic parliament and its representatives regarding this dangerous proposal and its withdrawal

The left party of Iran (People’s Fadaian) condemns these criminal actions. These barbarities not only will not save the Islamic Republic but will make the rope tighter around the neck of this despotic and corrupt regime.
By expressing our disgust for this criminal act, we offer our condolences to the families of the deceased and to the members and leadership of the Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan.
