Misogyny is not only against international human rights conventions, it is also the ultimate proof of diminished intelligence and absence of vision. What else could it mean to persecute and exclude half of human talent and capacity? Freedom doesn’t stand up for itself, democracy doesn’t stand up for it; equality and rule of law doesn’t stand up for itself. I’m here to say thank you to all the women standing for freedom, equality, democracy and the rule of law…
I would like to thank, of course, President Maryam Rajavi for leading the resistance and over 1000 women because the resistance has the last word.
