Beth: More than 300 Iranian professionals living in the United States, including university professors, doctors, academics, researchers and industry executives, have written a letter to the US President calling for decisive and immediate action to support the Iranian people's aspirations for a democratic, non-nuclear republic.

And he confirmed in their letter to Biden:

In the uprisings of the past four years, the Iranian people have consistently called for regime change. This urgent demand of the Iranian people for regime change is very clear and cannot be ignored.

In order to confront the Iranian people's uprising, the regime resorted, in addition to the brutal repression and murder, to export terrorism abroad and its extension to Europe and the United States.

The effective measures of the American government must be to prevent the export of the regime's terrorism in the region and beyond.

He called for not lifting any sanctions against this dictatorial terrorist regime, and for not granting any concessions to this inhumane regime until the regime proves that it ends human rights violations in Iran and terrorism abroad.

They said that defending human rights and democracy in Iran should be a fundamental and permanent component of the United States' policy toward the regime in Tehran.

Several European courts have upheld terrorist orders issued by the highest levels of the regime, and the regime's embassies are considered a safe haven for terrorist and espionage activities.

The ruling regime in Iran, with all its pillars, is an immutable dictatorship, and it has been proven over four decades that this regime is unable to form a government with less repression. Policies based on the dream of a moderate wing who would hold power in the system will fail, and US policies must avoid the mistakes of the past four decades that have caused irreparable damage to the Iranian people and the region.

Professor Kazem Kazerunyan, coordinator of the Iranians Committee specialized in policy towards Iran, said:

Several of the signatories of this letter were the target of a failed terrorist plot by the Iranian regime in June 2018 in Paris, in which Asadullah Asadi, the terrorist diplomat affiliated with the regime, was arrested and sentenced to 20 years imprisonment.

Gila Andalib, CIO, said:

This letter reflects the views of many high-level Iranian experts living in the United States whose families have been victims of the regime's human rights violations, including the massacre of 30,000 political prisoners in the summer of 1988 and the killing of 1,500 during the November 2019 uprising.

Reza Tand, Senior Vice President of Environmental Sciences Industry, said: “40 years of futile search for moderate elements of the system have shamefully failed. The ongoing and growing uprising of the people and the young generation in Iran is the new reality in Iran. The United States must stand up to Side of the Iranian people.
