The Kurdistan Free Life Party (PJAK) calls upon the United Nations,
the United States of America, Iraq, the European Union and the
European states to realize that the path to security and democracy
in the Middle East leads through a change of the Iranian theocratic
regime. Therefore a positive approach to the Kurdish question and
the demands and views of Iran's peoples and the peoples of the
Middle East is necessary. Oligarchic, theocratic and reactionary
states cannot be force of stability and cannot meet the demands of
the peoples. At the same time these states undermine global security
by setting up and funding fundamentalist groups.
It is time to put stop to the atrocities and human rights violations
of the Iranian Islamic oppressive regime.
We call upon the international community to help the Kurds and the
peoples of Iran in their struggle for democracy, freedom and peace.
