🚨 In a letter to European Parliament President @RobertaMetsola, 18 senior EU figures reject any return to the Shah’s dictatorship as an alternative to the mullahs. “Reza Pahlavi does not represent the people of Iran and has no democratic mandate to determine their future.”

306 Iranian associations from Europe, North America and Australia have addressed an open letter to @FNFreiheit & @fdp leaders, condemning their decision to award 2026 Freedom Award for the People of Iran to Reza Pahlavi, son of Iran’s former dictator. #No2Pahlavi 1/4

Iranians should be free to express political opinions and peaceful dissent. We call on Iran to immediately stop all executions.

#BREAKING 🇧🇪 Chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee at the Belgium Parliament today: “He (Reza Pahlavi) does not represent the entire Iranian opposition,” says Els Van Hoof. Reza Pahlavi's visit to the Belgium Parliament is cancelled. 👏 @ElsVanHoofcdenv Exactly. No single individual can claim to speak for all Iranians. The future of Iran must be decided by the Iranian people themselves.

The propaganda machine has already started. Saied Bashirtash : "such an encounter [invitation of Reza Pahlavi] is unprecedented in the last 47 years and that, typically, meetings at this level are reserved for the heads of allied nations." Reject the invitation of the son of the Shah, and do not allow they use the credibility of Belgium Parliament and Defense to promote their totalitarian campaign. @BelgiumMFA @Bart_DeWever @prevotmaxime @BelgiumDefence @PeterDeRoover1 @ElsVanHoofcdenv @Benoitbp59 @DeKamerBE #No2ShahNo2Mullahs #FreeIran @RTBFinfo @vrtnws @rtlinfo @VTMNIEUWS @DeKamerBE @LaChambreBE @lesoir @lalibrebe @destandaard @demorgen @HLN_BE @Nieuwsblad_be @BrusselsTimes @24brussels @BrusselsMorning youtube.com/watch?v=todZXJig…

🚨UN Special Rapporteur on freedom of opinion and expression, Leopoldo Maldonado, joins #NoToExecutionTuesdays with a 24-hour hunger strike in solidarity with Iran’s political prisoners. He calls for an immediate halt to executions.
I am joining a solidarity action with political prisoners in Iran participating in #NoToExecutionTuesdays. At 12 am Iran time, I'm going to start a 24-hour #hungerstrike #Iran #stopexecutions #abolishdeathpenalty The scale of Iran’s use of the death penalty for political reasons is alarming. Amnesty International recorded at least 2,159 executions in 2025, the highest annual figure it has recorded in the country since 1981. In 2026, at least 34 people have been executed in connection with the January protests, including five in just one week between 30 September and 5 October. Information I have received also reveals a particularly troubling dimension for my mandate. At least 46 political prisoners and protesters reportedly executed since 19 March 2026: 37 arrested during protests and nine targeted in connection with alleged opposition affiliation. More than 100 others are reportedly on death row. Offences such as baghi (armed rebellion), moharebeh (enmity against god) and efsad-e fel-arz (corruption on earth) are being used in cases where protest, political expression and alleged opposition affiliation are intertwined with capital charges. History makes these warning signs impossible to ignore. In 1988, around 30,000 political prisoners were executed or forcibly disappeared in one of the darkest chapters of Iran’s recent history. Former UN Special Rapporteur Javaid Rehman subsequently concluded that the summary, arbitrary and extrajudicial executions and enforced disappearances amounted to crimes against humanity. Iran must immediately halt executions, commute death sentences, review cases that fail to meet fair-trial standards and investigate allegations of torture. Political opinion, criticism, peaceful protest and association must never become capital offences.

Join us! #NotoExecutionTuesdsys Remaining silent in the face of executions is a betrayal of human dignity. ✊Stop the executions in #Iran ! ⚖️ Abolish the death penalty #StopExecutionsinIran
Sammen med en række andre medlemmer af EU Parlamente viste jeg i dag min solidaritet med de politiske fanger i Iran og krævede et øjeblikkeligt stop for henrettelserne her.

On Hunger Strike -UN Special Rapporteur on promotion & protection of the right to freedom of opinion & expression. He mentions Amir-Hassan Akbari-Monfared (23 ), Arghavan Fallahi (25 ), Mohammad-Javad Vafaie Sani (30 , a boxing champion & coach), & Zahra Tabari (68 ) #NoToExecutionTuesdays
#StopExecutionsInIran #NoToExecutionsTuesdays These are some faces of Political prisoners on death row. Among them are Amir-Hassan Akbari-Monfared (23 years old), Arghavan Fallahi (25 years old), Mohammad-Javad Vafaie Sani (30 years old, a boxing champion and coach), and Zahra Tabari (68 years old). Like in 1988, they are accused of "waging war on God" - not for actually doing anything, but simply for maintaining their political beliefs.

On #HungerStrike as I believe that the people of Iran should have the right to their political opinions without fear of being arrested + executed. An Iran where their ethnicity + religion does not equate oppression. #NoToExecutionTuesdays #StopExecutionsInIran @SRfreedex_LMG

Will the day come when Iran’s trees are free from the shame of bodies hanging from their branches, and streets and squares scarred by public executions once again become symbols of life and beauty? Yes, it will, if we rise up and take our responsibility. #StopExecutionsInIran

He argues that after the regime falls, the monarchy is the only credible institution around which a new political order can be built. Why should a hereditary institution, rather than freely elected representatives, be the center of Iran’s future?@MarkJCarney @JohnBrassardCPC
