The annual Grand Gathering of the Iranian Resistance was held for the first time to commemorate the defeat of the disgraceful French police raid against the Iranian Resistance on June 17, 2003, and to honor those who sacrificed themselves to avert one of the darkest chapters in the history of the Iranian Resistance.

Known as ‘Galaxy,’ the annual meeting of the Iranian Resistance is a pivotal event in the fight against the mullahs’ dictatorship. This gathering serves as a platform to unite and present the political, diplomatic, and strategic achievements in a long, complex, and honorable struggle.

The message of this gathering highlights the progress the Resistance has made in the fight against the mullahs’ tyranny for freedom, equality, and democracy. It underscores the key accomplishments on the path to liberate Iran from this oppressive regime and outlines the steps needed to achieve even greater success and expedite the end of this regime.

This gathering aims to chart the course for realizing a democratic and free Iran and to identify the urgent tasks required to reach this goal.

One of the key themes of the 2024 meeting of the Iranian Resistance in Berlin is to highlight the two opposing forces that have emerged in the wake of the uprisings over the past two decades, particularly the significant 2022 uprising and its profound impact on the Iranian government and society. The central message of this gathering is, “Iran’s vote is for overthrow.”

The 2024 gathering reflects the reality that all previous policies in confronting this regime have been tested, and the only remaining justified policy is resistance, supported by the brave Resistance Units. For the past six years, reports on the commendable activities of the Resistance Units have been a constant and inspiring feature of these gatherings.

The growing activities of the Resistance Units demonstrate that this regime is beyond reform and will not accept any changes. Consequently, the youth and people of Iran have resolved to confront this regime.

Another crucial aspect of this annual gathering is the progress report on the justice movement seeking accountability for the victims of the 1988 massacre. This movement has gained global traction and has become a symbol and voice for justice for the victims of genocides.

This movement undoubtedly poses a significant threat to the regime regarding its human rights violations. The annual gathering mirrors the international prestige of Iran’s Resistance and showcases the credibility of the historical struggle embodied by the National Resistance Council of Iran (NCRI).

The support of numerous international personalities for the Iranian Resistance in recent days attests to the influence and credibility of this struggle and its enduring presence in the hearts and minds of its international audience.

This annual gathering is a manifesto and a tapestry of history, values, solidarity, achievements, a vision for Iran’s future, culture, and art. It connects those who cherish freedom and embodies the passionate souls dedicated to this noble cause.
