توافق جامع اتمی با ایران را تایید کنید!

Letter to the Congress of the United States

We, the undersigned, are Iranians living abroad and opposed to the Islamic Republic of Iran. Many of us have been forced into exile because of our criticism of the Islamic Republic’s autocratic structure and violation of human rights. We advocate non-violent transition to a democracy based on Universal Declaration of Human Rights.   We believe that Iranian people are the sole force to bring democracy and freedom to Iran. We look forward to a diplomatic resolution of Iran’s conflicts with the United States, peaceful relations with all nations and strict adherence to the Non-Proliferation Treaty.  We are writing to urge you to approve the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) because the agreement could resolve an unnecessary confrontation. It also addresses the proliferation concern of the congress by blocking the anticipated paths to militarization of the nuclear program of the Islamic Republic of Iran in most effective way based on the comprehensive and widespread supervision of IAEA. We believe JCPOA could potentially help the democracy movement in Iran. In addition, it can contribute to a peaceful solution of the crises in the Persian Gulf region. We would like to point out that normal trade relations between Iran and Western countries will lead, albeit gradually, to a reduction of tension in Iran’s relations with United States and Europe. 
We believe such developments should encourage Western governments to adopt earnest support for human rights in Iran as they engage with that country in trade and investment negotiations.  Movement toward normalization of Iran’s international relations and subsequent commitment of IRI to the international rule and norms could make the condemning of the regime’s misbehavior of political dissidents, civil society forces, ethnic and religious minorities more effective. Please note that despite the resistance of hardliners, Iranian youth who is the main driving force of change for democracy, is supporting the JCPOA.  By backing this treaty, Iranian people has already opted to join forces in the region and the world for peace and progress.
Your confirmation of JCPOA is giving a chance for peace and democracy in Iran whereas casting a vote of no in this regard can result in potential repercussions in Iran’s nuclear stand, regional stability, and Iranian people’s view toward the US and in turn negatively impact the struggles for democracy in Iran.
