Maryam Rajavi, president elect of the Iranian Resistance

Mrs. Maryam Rajavi , the Iranian Resistance’s President-elect, strongly condemns the brutal and repulsive terrorist attacks on Bardo Museum and expresses the deepest sympathies of the Iranian people and the Resistance with the people and President of Tunisia.
She stressed that those who planned this atrocity are taking revenge on the Tunisian people for their resolute rejection of fundamentalism and extremism under the veneer of Islam. She added that slaughter of innocent civilians of any nationality on whatever pretext is a crime against humanity and even more unacceptable when committed in the name of Islam, a religion of compassion and emancipation.
Mrs. Rajavi emphasized that terrorism and fundamentalism turned into a pressing global threat when the religious dictatorship came to power in Iran.
