Elis Gjevori, TRT World, January 16 2020:... In 2014, under US pressure, Albania took in more than 4,000 members [Correct number is 2100 - Iran Interlink] of the People's Mujahedin of Iran (MEK) a secretive group formerly based Iraq. “Albania is hosting one of the most dangerous terrorist organisations on behalf of the United States,” says Dr Olsi Jazexhi, an… 2020/01/16

Daniel Moattar, Mother Jones, January 16 2020:... Trump was bragging about his tweet in Persian being the most retweeted Persian-language tweet. But much of that retweeting happens by these bots, and through these online activist cyber armies like the MKO (Rajavi Cult, MEK, NCRI, ...) . Their activism, now, is basically tweeting. They have these halls of aging activists sitting behind computers and… 2020/01/16

Nejat Society, Tehran, January 14 2020:... After the fuel demonstrations in Iran were quashed, Iran’s right wing claimed the MEK was behind the violent unrest. The MEK also claimed they were behind it. Genuine opposition groups and demonstrators said they need to have the right atmosphere and conditions so that people can demand their rights without the interference of MEK,… 2020/01/14

Betsy Swan, Erin Banco, Asawin Suebsaeng, The Daily Beast, January 14 2020:... Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani—who the MEK hired to help it get off the U.S. list of foreign terrorist groups and who recently called the group “my MEK people”—welcomed the reversal. “[The MEK] is very supportive of a free…Iraq. It’s run by a great woman who is committed to… 2020/01/14

Lee Fang, The Intercept, January 12 2020:... VOA Persian now provides wall-to-wall positive coverage for hard-line regime change advocates. The network provides reliably favorable coverage of Mojahedin-e Khalq, or MEK, the militant opposition that has worked with Israeli intelligence to carry out assassinations of Iranian nuclear scientists, even providing a platform for Heshmat Alavi, a fake persona created by MEK. The network’s journalists… 2020/01/12

James M. Dorsey, Euro-Asia Times, January 12 2020:... A litmus test of the directive by Mr. Pompeo, known to have a close relationship with Donald J. Trump, is likely to be whether the president’s personal lawyer, Rudolph Giuliani, distances himself from the controversial National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), an offshoot of the Mujahedeen-e-Khalq, a group that was taken… 2020/01/12

Fax Web, Albania, January 11 2020:... The Prime Minister responded to this question, which included the topic of the Mojahedin Khalq Organisation (aka MEK, MKO, NCRI, …) housed in our country, saying that we are safe in the hands of the allies' intelligence. On the issue of the Mojahedin Khalq , Rama said that the agreement with the US stipulates… 2020/01/11

Iran Interlink, January 10 2020:... After the illegal assassination of general Qassem Soleimani, videos and audios in support of president Trump flooded Farsi social media. These all turned out to be fake. The only ones that were true were MEK outlets, which genuinely support Trump. Very quickly an audio emerged from Massoud Rajavi – presumed dead – as the only… 2020/01/10

Ramin Mazaheri, Press TV, January 10 2020:... If Washington assassinated Soleimani because he was a “terrorist”, then logically they should now de-list ISIL as a terrorist group. Why not just come clean, finally? The entire world acknowledges that Soleimani fought terrorism, but if he must be rebranded as a “terrorist” in the West - in Orwellian fashion - then the… 2020/01/10

Nick Wadhams, Bloomberg, January 08 2020:... The directive about Mujahedeen-e-Khalq, its offshoot, the National Council of Resistance of Iran, and five other groups was delivered in a cable sent to all U.S. diplomatic outposts on Tuesday and obtained by Bloomberg News. It says meetings with the groups could jeopardize U.S. diplomacy with Iran. “Direct U.S. government engagement with these groups… 2020/01/08

Julian Pecquet, Al-Monitor, January 08 2020:... The disclosure raises new questions about ties between United Against Nuclear Iran CEO Mark Wallace and the National Council of Resistance of Iran, a Paris-based umbrella group dominated by the Mujahedeen-e-Khalq. The council also met twice with President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani around the time of the UN General Assembly, drawing renewed… 2020/01/08

Massoud Khodanbandeh, Responsible Statecraft, January 09 2020:... In another reckless act of overturning Obama’s legacy, the new Trump administration halted Hillary Clinton’s plan to de-radicalise the Mojahedin-e Khalq (MEK) in Albania. Since then, American anti-Iran politicians have stuffed the MEK down the throats of the international community as the regime change opposition that will bring freedom and democracy to Iran. Since Iranians hate… 2020/01/08
