Mr. Massoud Rajavi, the President of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, applauded the Belgian initiative and described it as indicative of the vigilant conscience of the people of that country towards the crimes of the Khomeini regime. On this occasion, he called on the European Union to end its policy of critical dialogue with the mullahs' religious, terrorist dictatorship which only emboldens the regime in its internal suppression and export of terrorism.
Indignant by the terrorist efforts attempted "to pierce the ship of the Near East peace process," convinced that such acts of terrorism are carried out "with the material and financial support and encouragement of various countries, foremost among whom is Iran," noting that "the sabotage of the Near East's peace process constitutes the ultimate objective of the Iranian foreign policy in the region," and considering that "the efforts of the Iranian government to acquire weapons of mass destruction and support international terrorism compose a serious menace to security," the Parliament of Belgium called on the government "to take up any preparation necessary to impose embargo... on exports of certain goods to Iran, including the technology and know-how which allows this country to increase or improve its capacities in extracting, refining, storing, transforming and transporting oil products," "to withdraw any new financial aid which could facilitate economic transactions" with the Khomeini regime, and "to not grant new credits to or reschedule loans of" the Iranian regime.
