According to the Committee for the 2024 Free-Iran Grand Gathering and Demonstration in Berlin (KFIKB), one of the largest rallies of Iranians abroad is scheduled for June 29, 2024, in Berlin.
The mass rally and subsequent protest march will take place one day after the mullahs’ sham presidential election. It aims to reflect the Iranian people’s demand for the abolition of the ruling theocracy, echoing sentiments expressed during the 2022/2023 uprisings.
Key Points:
- Clear Message: Protesters in Berlin are united in their message: “In Iran, under the ruling religious fascism, it is not time for elections, but for a revolution.” They advocate for the abolition of the clerical regime and the establishment of a democratic republic based on the separation of religion and state.
- Rejecting Executions and Sham Elections: The rally emphasises opposition to the regime’s executions and sham elections. Participants call for regime change and the establishment of a democratic republic.
- Support for Maryam Rajavi’s Plan: Iranians express support for Mrs. Maryam Rajavi’s 10-point plan. This plan outlines the transition phase after the abolition of the mullah regime, including the establishment of a democratic republic, gender equality, the abolition of the death penalty, and a nuclear-free Iran.
- Alarming Executions: Amnesty International warns that the increase in executions in Iran has led to the highest execution rate since 2015. Participants are shocked by this wave of executions.
- Call for IRGC Designation: Protesters urge the European Union and its member states to designate the Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) as a terrorist organisation.
The rally will feature speeches by several MPs and personalities from Germany, other European countries, and the United States. It is supported by hundreds of Iranian associations across Europe and the United States.
