Greetings!
The greater family of the Iranian Resistance lost a great friend last week. The Lord Robin Corbett of Castle Vale passed away Sunday morning, 19 February.
During the past three decades, despite heavy responsibilities at the House of Lords, he was always an active supporter of the Iranian Resistance and a defender of Camp Ashraf. He was the founder of the British Parliamentary Committee for Iran Freedom that enjoys majority support of members of the House of Commons and over 200 members of House of Lords.
Lord Corbett led an unprecedented political and legal battle that successfully resulted in the delisting of the MEK in Britain and consequently in the European Union.
He will be remembered and loved as a true warrior for the cause of freedom and justice in the history of the world and in particular the Iranian people.
But for now, we will all miss him.
ISDCI sends its condolences to the family, colleagues, President-elect Rajavi and the greater family of the Iranian Resistance.
We are delighted to present you with the current issue of Iran Update, a publication of International Solidarity for Democratic Change in Iran (ISDCI). You can see ISDCI's latest events on our website at: International Conferences |
