Enough talk. Support the people of Iran the way you support Ukraine.

Mr. Secretary, I’m an Iranian American and a retired CPA. Please do not negotiate with the Iranian regime. The Iranian regime is a terrorist organization. If it’s not dealt with today, you have to deal with it down the road when it’s stronger. They should not get a dime. Please support the Iranian people for their just cause.

Mr. Secretary, thank you for showing support and once again acknowledged the freedom rights of people and nation . What is now in mind of every Iranian, what then ? I am knowledgable about current world affairs and political complexity that do not expect fast solutions, however now Iranian people are really looking in what USA government is going to show them as evidence that USA government support free will of nation and support them in action according to rule of international convention . As you are aware, former president Obama, today commented that now he is regretting during uprise of Iranian people under his presidency did not support Iranian people - biased with Iranian regime for nuclear deal- . I sincerely hope non of current USA adminstration in particular you and president Biden, do not make the same political mistake and regret it afterwards. History will be the judge and always will shine through the darkest and heaviest clouds . Thank you

Thanks for the support. As an Iranian I want to know who were the activists ? What was their views ? Was Masih Alinejad invited to the meeting as well?

[jumakhansultani]

That very good to hear that.
Iranian people know and during years of their fight against the Mullah's regime they learnt they should not rely on other countries too much. Because everyone countries think about their own interests.
Anyway This regime wouldn't stay long.

Imagine Russia or China meet with BLM or MAGA leaders in promised full support for them...LOL

Good to see and hear, no political views and perspective .
However all sanctions are directly hit poorest people of iran,
So, no sanctions/ business, try to be constructive, and that issue will be solved.
