Iran - Rouhani is no moderate, he is a defender of the ruling theocracy

Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian Resistance, said: as a mullah, Rouhani is a defender of the ruling theocracy and has sworn allegiance to the velayat-e faqih (absolute rule of the supreme leader). Under his Presidency have been executed more than 2000 prisoners, suppression increased, he condones discriminates against women, and torture and arbitrary imprisonment.
Mrs. Maryam Rajavi said: Rouhani can not distance himself from the wave of execution in Iran and Bashar al-Assad's massacre of the Syrian people. Relations with Iran regime should be conditional upon a halt to executions, and an improvement of human rights in Iran. This is the will of the Iranian people and an imperative for peace and fighting terrorism in the region and the world.
