62RZ21 - Sense of the Ziu: Iranian Freedom & Democracy

WHEREAS, the rights of peaceful assembly and freedom of expression are core principles of liberty and of open and free societies; and

WHEREAS, reports from the Islamic Republic of Iran indicate the use of violence, intimidation, and repression against civilians engaging in peaceful protest; and

WHEREAS, the use of force against unarmed protesters undermines the legitimacy of governance and erodes trust between a state and its people; and

WHEREAS, the people of Iran, like all peoples, have an inherent right to determine their political, social, and cultural future without fear of violence or coercion.

THEREFORE, be it the Sense of the Ziu of the Kingdom of Talossa to unequivocally condemn the use of violence, repression, and collective punishment against peaceful protesters in Iran; and

Be it further resolved, that the Ziu calls upon the authorities of the Islamic Republic of Iran to cease all acts of violence against civilians, to respect the rights of peaceful assembly and expression, and to ensure accountability for abuses committed; and

Be it further resolved, that the Ziu affirms its solidarity with the people of Iran in their pursuit of justice, dignity, and self-determination, and recognizes their right to have their voices heard without fear; and

Be it further resolved, that the Kingdom of Talossa encourages the international community to uphold human rights principles, to advocate for the protection of civilians, and to support peaceful and lawful expressions of the will of the Iranian people.
