Former FBI Director Louis Free, along with the American delegation, addresses the Free Iran World Summit on July 20, 2023
A bipartisan group of prominent American officials, including former ambassadors, cabinet members, judges, and military leaders, have issued a powerful statement condemning the recent defamation campaign targeting Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI).
In the wake of a defamatory article published on March 18, 2025, in a French satirical outlet, the signatories reaffirmed their unwavering support for Mrs. Rajavi and denounced what they described as an orchestrated disinformation effort rooted in Tehran’s propaganda. They emphasized Mrs. Rajavi’s leadership in the fight for a democratic, secular, and nuclear-free Iran, and called on all democratic nations to stand with the Iranian people against the clerical dictatorship.
