Australian Senator Expresses Strong Support for Iranian People’s Democratic Aspirations

In a powerful demonstration of international solidarity, Australian Senator Paul Scarr has reaffirmed his unwavering support for the Iranian people's quest for freedom, democracy, and peace. Addressing members of the Iranian-Australian community, the Queensland Senator highlighted his ongoing commitment to standing alongside those fighting for human rights in Iran.

Backing the Ten-Point Plan and Community Solidarity

Senator Scarr emphasized his endorsement of Maryam Rajavi’s 10-point plan, joining over 3,000 parliamentarians globally who view it as a clear roadmap for Iran’s democratic future. Recalling his involvement in solidarity events following the tragic death of Jina Mahsa Amini in 2022, he shared his experience marching with the diaspora in Brisbane and pledged to continue supporting their journey until their goals are realized.


Zero Tolerance for Transnational Repression

Addressing the safety and rights of activists within Australia, Senator Scarr delivered a stern warning against foreign interference and intimidation:

"Any attack on you and your freedoms, to freedom of expression... any foreign interference, transnational repression, any attack on you is an attack on me as an Australian parliamentarian."


He concluded by praising the community's inspiring efforts to expose ongoing human rights abuses and expressed his hope to one day celebrate the establishment of a free and democratic Iran at Parliament House in Canberra.

The Shah can't save Iran

When authoritarian regimes start to wobble, outside observers often reach instinctively for the single, familiar idea of ‘the alternative’. It is a human reflex, but a dangerous one. In Iran, as the clerical theocracy shows signs of fracture and the country’s crisis deepens, some Western voices have begun to flirt with a thought that feels neat and historically legible: the return of the Shah’s son. That would be a profound mistake. Iran’s tragedy since 1979 has been that an autocracy was replaced by another autocracy. The lesson should be plain: changing the personality at the top is not enough. What matters is the nature of the state and the source of its legitimacy. Iran does not need a restoration. It needs a foundation for a democratic future. It has been argued that Reza Pahlavi could play a unifying role, perhaps as a symbolic constitutional monarch. But this misunderstands both Iran’s recent history and the political psychology of revolutions. The last Shah was not a constituti...

The power and sovereignty belongs to the Iranian people’s republic

  Mike Pompeo: Iran's democratic opposition is ready to step up and lead. Former US House Speaker Newt Gingrich: The National Council of Resistance of Iran , an anti-Iranian regime group, announced on Saturday a "provisional government to transfer sovereignty" to the Iranian people and establish a Democratic Republic after the United States and Israel launched strikes against the regime. Rudy Giuliani: What Reza Pahlavi is attempting to do—by declaring himself Iran's "transitional leader"—is dangerous and will only destabilize the situation further. Pahlavi has next to no support inside the country, as he is literally the son of the man who was overthrown by the Iranian people after years of brutality, theft and oppressive rule. The Iranian people will not resort back to a tyrannical monarchy after freeing themselves of a tyrannical Islamic regime. This would be a formula for disaster.

The Only Path Ahead

Image
The situation in Iran has reached an exceptional moment. The clerical regime no longer faces multiple options or divergent paths. It confronts only one trajectory: either downfall through international belligerence and domestic repression, or downfall through retreat. Conversely, the Iranian people also face no range of choices. There is only one path—and one path alone: an organized uprising leading to the overthrow of religious tyranny in Iran . Yes, only one destination lies before us: victory . Only one path stretches ahead: a democratic revolution, the transfer of power to the Iranian people through democratic means, and, ultimately, the establishment of a democratic republic in Iran. https://www.maryam-rajavi.com/en/conference-at-the-european-parliament-europe-cannot-remain-silent-or-passive/
