- 1:28voice and the leading personality of Balochistan
- 1:31freedom. And we are very honored to
- 1:34welcome you, Mrs. Prime Minister.
- 1:36I will refer to you as Prime Minister because you represented
- 1:40the government in exile officially since 2022.
- 1:43You were elected as the Prime Minister of the government in
- 1:47exile and the international audience, of course, we want to
- 1:51know now, when all this revolution is happening in Iran,
- 1:55what will be the future of Iran, What are the constituent nations
- 1:59of Iran, what is Baluchistan and where do you see the future of
- 2:04your nation developing? And I'm very honoured that you
- 2:07take time. And please can you first
- 2:09introduce yourself as well a bit and also then outline what's
- 2:13your plans for the future? Thanks a lot.
- 2:15You're very welcome. Thank you so much.
- 2:19Thank you so much. I'm really obliged and grateful.
- 2:27Actually, what I am is my identity is Baluch, and this is
- 2:33the identity I'm proud of and I take as my basic my first
- 2:41identity and I believe in multiple identities, my feminine
- 2:49energies, the creativity. I'm proud of introducing myself
- 2:55as a as a woman who believes in equality and who rejects all
- 3:03such rules and and kind of religious attempts, taking
- 3:15religion as a kind of a tool of oppression to show that women
- 3:24are lesser human. I don't accept it.
- 3:28And my generations of women, we never accepted it.
- 3:32Well, which women? We don't accept it.
- 3:35And Balochistan is not Iran and Baluchistan is not Pakistan.
- 3:44Baluchistan was a free country when there was no Iran and there
- 3:49was no Pakistan. We have a history of 20,000
- 3:54years. No other nation in the world can
- 3:59claim that they were on this land for last 25,000 years.
- 4:08The city of Merger was found by a French archaeologist and he
- 4:16worked there with his wife and his team for 30 years.
- 4:20And it's his discovery. It's not my claim that layer by
- 4:25layer a civilisation was there. And still if you see the
- 4:32patterns on my dress, the the patterns here we live with are
- 4:38patterns from Melgar. So we are people of the soil and
- 4:45we are occupied by our neighbors divided by colonial conspiracies
- 4:55and our brothers and sisters by blood and bones.
- 4:58We are from same ancestors are Kurdish people.
- 5:03So Baluch is basically from 5 court tribes, a nation
- 5:07developed. So our mother nation is Kurdish
- 5:10nation. This the Kurdistan and
- 5:15Baluchistan both are facing same kind of oppression, division and
- 5:23taking over by our neighbors. So we don't believe in the
- 5:31dialogues people say and the rhetorics people show that
- 5:37religion, all our Muslim countries who are doing
- 5:43injustice with us, It's not the matter of religion, it's matter
- 5:50of justice. If there is no justice, religion
- 5:55is just a tool of oppression, a tool to occupy and to control
- 6:03and show their power. The situation in Iran today is
- 6:12just like it was during Holocaust.
- 6:17In Pakistan, the Baluchistan, especially Kurdistan, Ahwaz.
- 6:23We are the people who are under direct target.
- 6:27They don't see us as humans. They they have decided us as
- 6:33others. They have decided us that we are
- 6:37lesser people, we are lesser humans.
- 6:40They ignore our history, they lie about their history that
- 6:46never existed when we were there.
- 6:49And they are doing the extreme level of oppression.
- 6:55They're using our women, our daughters as raping our
- 7:01daughters as tool of their to keeping their occupation, to
- 7:08make us afraid, to make us scare 15 years old girl, even 17 years
- 7:14old girl, even seven days old baby girl they have abducted.
- 7:20They are abducting our women every day.
- 7:24A 15 year old girl Maho in Jabaar was raped by police chief
- 7:33of Chabahar. The Iranian they claim about
- 7:37religion, where is their religion, the religion they talk
- 7:41about and they say we are enemies of their God.
- 7:45I want to see their God, where it Where is that God that allows
- 7:50them to rape kids? And there is no accountability.
- 7:59And when people were on their roads for Masa Amini, our
- 8:05daughter, her actual name is Jina.
- 8:09We are not allowed to give our kids our names.
- 8:13We are not allowed. We have to give them Persian
- 8:15names. So Masa is not her original
- 8:17name. Her original name is Jina.
- 8:19Her Kurdish name is Jina. My mother's name was Jina.
- 8:27When we were on their roads protesting, just protesting,
- 8:30saying that killing a girl, that she was not wearing hijab,
- 8:37raping a girl 15 years ago, girl for Maho and Masa Baluch, people
- 8:44were protesting peacefully. What they did, they killed 400
- 8:49people in one day. Around 200 were killed on the
- 8:54spot. Then they were taken to
- 8:56hospital. They were refused for
- 9:00treatments. They got they they died
- 9:03continuously by bleeding. Kurdish teachers came there to
- 9:09donate their blood. They were not allowed.
- 9:12And when people died in the dark nights, they were given the
- 9:16bodies were given to their families and asked not to
- 9:21announce their their debts, just take them in the dark and bury
- 9:25them today. What's going on?
- 9:31A political leader. A Wazi political leader in a
- 9:36Shaban jail in Iran. Akhwazi.
- 9:39I don't Mrs. Prime Minister Votes Akhwazi.
- 9:42A Wazi are also a nation in Iran and they are occupied by the
- 9:50state of Iran. They are not Iranis.
- 9:52That's the Arabs in the South of Iran.
- 9:54Yes, yes. So they are our direct
- 9:57neighbors. They are the, the way they are
- 10:01dealing with Ahwazis is extreme of, of injustice and cruelty.
- 10:11If there is a protest in Tehran with their own Persian people,
- 10:14they use tear gas. But if there is a protest in
- 10:18Ahwaz or Kurdistan or Baluchistan, they just shoot us
- 10:24in 55 prisons all over Iran, a hunger strike is going on.
- 10:33World should know that the prisoners have stitched their
- 10:37mouths. Can you imagine?
- 10:42This hunger strike is against the the killing of prisoners in
- 10:492025 only they have hand to death. 2200 prisoners.
- 10:57Majority are Court Baluch in ours.
- 11:02So they're. Shooting women.
- 11:04Especially targeting the minorities of the Kurds, of the
- 11:08Baluch and of the Arabs in the Gulf.
- 11:10Yeah, that's especially the target of the Mullah regime.
- 11:15Yeah, actually it's not the matter of Mullah regime.
- 11:19When there was Shah, the situation was not good for us.
- 11:24The in in the Shah regime, actually they occupied our
- 11:27territories. Mullahs are continuing the Shahs
- 11:31regime. There is no change of regime is
- 11:33there? People have changed the state.
- 11:36The cruel nature and the injustices of the nature of the
- 11:40state is there. Our problem is not changing of
- 11:43regime. Whichever regime comes, they
- 11:47will do the same. When the Masa revolution was
- 11:53started, I remember in front of Vancouver Art Gallery, we
- 11:58gathered for for the protest. So it was all all kind of people
- 12:04who were supporting that. They were codes, ballots and
- 12:07Persians and others and Turkmen, Lur, Armenians, everybody was
- 12:13there. The first target was my flag.
- 12:18They came to us and they said which flag is this?
- 12:22I said this is Baluchistan, is it a new flag?
- 12:27I said yeah, kind of 700 years new.
- 12:33So they said no, only the Shah flag, the King's flag is Iranian
- 12:40flag. All of the flags, no, especially
- 12:43you guys are not allowed. So if my flag is not allowed, we
- 12:47are not here. We know we are no part of you.
- 12:49We'll go somewhere else and we can protest for our daughter.
- 12:54Then Kurdish protesters, they made 40% of the whole protest.
- 13:00They came out. They said if ballots are not
- 13:02allowed, then we are. We are also leaving with
- 13:04ballots. We go with ballots.
- 13:07Then they accepted us on the pressure of Kurdish because they
- 13:11were more in number. So I thought that they are
- 13:16socialists and Shah people together, disliking Baluch flag,
- 13:22disliking Kurdish flag. They are out of power today.
- 13:27Still they don't accept us. If they are in part, they are no
- 13:32different than than mullahs. All the institutions of Iran
- 13:37today's working, crushing people, their jails, their
- 13:41secret agencies, their armies, their forces, they are not new,
- 13:45newly created. They are created by Shah.
- 13:49How? How Shah can be a different
- 13:50person? And if you see, if you look at
- 13:55the the the map of Iran, a minority in centre, a Persian
- 14:03minority in centre has occupied their neighbors territories and
- 14:08created a country. Everybody else, then Persians
- 14:15are not happy. So if there is a change, we are
- 14:22not showering our blood for a regime change.
- 14:27We clearly state that Baluchistan was a free country
- 14:34and we want Baluchistan as a free country.
- 14:38It's not a new country. People are afraid of new
- 14:40countries. Kosovo is there.
- 14:43One of Kosovo's journalist, He's our friend sometimes when we
- 14:47organize conferences in the United Nations, Geneva, he joins
- 14:52US1 day. He said we are just 200,000
- 14:55people. We have a country because it was
- 14:59in the interest of the powers. But you guys, yeah.
- 15:05And you guys are 60 million people, 60 you are stateless.
- 15:13So it's not that we are not resisting.
- 15:18It's not that we are not fighting.
- 15:20It's not that we are not using the the the tools to to advocate
- 15:28at every level. We had conferences in Paris, we
- 15:32had conferences in Germany, we had conferences in Brussels, we
- 15:36had conferences in Geneva, in United States.
- 15:40So wherever there is, we we feel that, yeah, people are ready to
- 15:45listen to us. We have gone there, we have
- 15:48spoke to them. They know what's going on in
- 15:51Balochistan. They know how they are killing
- 15:53us, bombing us, demolishing our villages, but they're silent.
- 15:59Why? The basic manipulation of Iran
- 16:07is in a joint venture with Pakistan.
- 16:11Pakistan and Iran are twins. People think that OK, one is bad
- 16:20if we dismantle this one, the other can work.
- 16:24No, Whenever there is a problem in Iran, all their leadership is
- 16:30supported by Pakistan. Now there was attack on Iran.
- 16:34Their leadership was hiding in Pakistan through Baluchistan,
- 16:39they connect through Baluchistan, they both support
- 16:42each other and there was a war against Pakistan the last few
- 16:49months. Iran was supporting them.
- 16:51How they are supporting each other at that deep level.
- 16:56Both their existence depend upon Baluchistan.
- 17:01Both existence if you look at their geography, without
- 17:06Baluchistan they are landlocked. They don't have the Punjabi
- 17:11minority in Pakistan and the Persian minority in Iran.
- 17:15Both have no sea. 2000 kilometres of Balut sea in
- 17:23Indian Ocean has given them what they're selling to the world
- 17:28powers. In our E is Sindhudesh.
- 17:32It's not Pakistan, they want their country, they don't want
- 17:38to live under Punjabi domination in our east in our W ahwazi.
- 17:45So these three nations and majority is Baluch C has given
- 17:51them access to to ruin the peace in Middle East.
- 17:57If this access is taken away from them, they won't be able to
- 18:01do anything in Middle East. What they're doing, Baluchistan?
- 18:07In Europe we have made very good experience with the
- 18:11dismantlement of Yugoslavia into 7 new countries.
- 18:14Do you see the future of Iran as well in several new countries?
- 18:19Sure, sure, yes, which for sure. Baluchistan, I was this time
- 18:27Kurdistan, the part of Turkmenistan, the part of
- 18:31Azerbaijan, they have their own countries.
- 18:33They will go the part of Armenia, they can go to Armenia.
- 18:37The Persians can live like nice neighbors, can live like
- 18:44peaceful people. We don't have animosity against
- 18:48anyone. We are not racist people.
- 18:50We are not against anybody's religion or culture or anything.
- 18:55But it doesn't mean that one community can dominate because
- 19:02in past a group of thugs or a group of gang hungry people with
- 19:10their arms had occupied a region and they made a dynasty.
- 19:15And people should be ashamed of that.
- 19:18Instead of promoting royalties and monarchies.
- 19:23It's it's, it's not a good thing.
- 19:26This time is time of equality, equality at personal level and
- 19:32equality at national level. What nations are we?
- 19:35All are humans. We all are from same root.
- 19:39We are from we have same soul, all humans and even water and
- 19:45soil and winds, this earth and universe and all the universes,
- 19:50same soul. Nation is a kind of home.
- 19:55Country is our home. Everybody needs a home.
- 19:58Everybody needs a space where they can live.
- 20:01How they want it doesn't mean people are against each other.
- 20:06People can cooperate with each other, with everyone.
- 20:10So baluch people are basically encourage people to.
- 20:14We are very liberal people. We are very inclusive people.
- 20:18We are not fanatics. We don't hate anybody on any for
- 20:23any excuse. No, we just hate injustice.
- 20:26We just hate cruelty, we just hate if some someone humiliate
- 20:31us. We prefer dignity more than
- 20:34life. This is this is the reason we
- 20:39cannot be good proxies. We want if we can get lesser
- 20:45share but things should be open on table.
- 20:48Take us as equal humans. We are no better than anybody
- 20:54but we are not lesser than anybody.
- 20:56So dismantling of Iran is its fate the way they are.
- 21:02They have dealt with their neighbors.
- 21:07It doesn't show any any possibility of Iran being a
- 21:13country in future and same is Pakistan.
- 21:16And whatever happens will happen with both of them together
- 21:22because if one is dismantled, the other will support on
- 21:26Balochistan, Iran and Pakistan, both authorities meet every
- 21:33month. Then how to keep Balochistan
- 21:36under occupation? What more we should do?
- 21:41And if there is a kind of uprising in one part of
- 21:48Balochistan, the other country comes there.
- 21:50Help them. Even Iranian gunship helicopters
- 21:54have came and bombed on Baluchistan in our Marine
- 21:57region. It's history.
- 21:59Yeah, they do it. They they teach each other and
- 22:03they, they pick if a Baluch from this Pakistani region goes to
- 22:10Iranian region or from Iranian region to Pakistani occupied
- 22:14region, the governments pick them and hand over to to each
- 22:18other. They are closely cooperating
- 22:21with each other against Baluchistan.
- 22:25Mrs. Prime Minister, in terms of coordination between the various
- 22:29potential separatist regions of ex Iran, yet that means you as
- 22:33the Prime Minister of Baluchistan, how is the
- 22:36cooperation with the partners in Kurdistan, with the series, with
- 22:42the Armenians, with the took Manians, with the Arabs?
- 22:45Is there some kind of council of coordination or you have some
- 22:50loose contacts or do they also excel governments or where they
- 22:53established in the other regions of Iran?
- 22:57Actually, we are helping others to establish their governments
- 23:04because Baluchistan has always tried to establish their
- 23:08government. In 1948, we tried and at that
- 23:12time Iran played a very crucial role in convincing India and
- 23:20Russia at that time, Soviet Union, they don't support
- 23:23Balochistan's exact government because if they will take the
- 23:27Pakistani part tomorrow, they will take the Iranian part too.
- 23:31So they didn't support us at that time in 1948 when?
- 23:36Pakistan at the separation of India When India and Pakistan
- 23:40divided, it would have been the opportunity for Balochistan as
- 23:43well to be an independent state. Balochistan was already an
- 23:47independent, independent country because Balochistan was not part
- 23:50of India. We were an independent country.
- 23:53We had contracts, we had lease agreements with the British
- 23:57government. We were not occupied by British.
- 24:00But British played a role very wickedly that they supported
- 24:05Iran to claim on Baluch lands and they said Colonel Goldsmith,
- 24:12he said it was in 1869. And Colonel Goldsmith said that
- 24:19OK, I'll sit with Baluch and Iranian representatives and we
- 24:24will solve the matter. And then what he did, he said
- 24:29this is Iran. So he the the part they needed
- 24:33to take oil and the port they wanted Cambaran port of Cambaran
- 24:38that was then given name Bandar Abbas.
- 24:41Bandar Abbas is not the original name.
- 24:44The indigenous name of Bandar Abbas is Cambaran Baluch.
- 24:49And so they it was the conspiracy because they wanted
- 24:54the oil, they wanted the port and they wanted to connect
- 25:01British India with Iran. So in between was an independent
- 25:06Baluchistan. They carved out a part and
- 25:11included it in Afghanistan. It's 100,000 kilometres in
- 25:15Afghanistan. It's Baluch.
- 25:18So they connected it. They didn't, they didn't felt
- 25:24safe passing Baluchistan. So they made a safe path to
- 25:29connect from British India via British Baluchistan, including
- 25:34the Afghan part and Baluch part, and then to Iran.
- 25:37And from Iran they took the oil and then they used our port.
- 25:42So when Colonel Goldsmith gave that part to Iran, the
- 25:48representative of the government of Baluchistan was Saddam Fakir
- 25:53Bizanjo. And he stood up.
- 25:54He said I don't accept this. So when one party doesn't accept
- 26:00the contract, it's not it's not. It was never signed by Baluch
- 26:04representative and then king of Baluchistan at that time he he
- 26:09opposed that and he said that it's Baluchistan and Iran
- 26:12shouldn't enter that. Until 1920, Iranians were not
- 26:19able to occupy that part. It was very slow process that
- 26:27they did it but Baluts always resisted until today Baluts are
- 26:32resisting and the last part of Baluchistan that was free as a
- 26:36country we had our parliament, we had our national anthem, we
- 26:40had our bond boundaries, international boundaries.
- 26:44That was occupied by Pakistan after it's artificial creation
- 26:49in 1947. After one year, they militarily
- 26:54attacked on Baluchistan and occupied it and that was the
- 26:58time when world saw United Nations. the United Nations was
- 27:04new, was immature or was not able to see what was going on
- 27:10and world powers one or other they are from that day till
- 27:16today, some few are supporting Iran and few are supporting
- 27:20Pakistan. So whoever supporting any of
- 27:24these two countries, Baluts are deprived of international
- 27:29support. So what our point is that if
- 27:36it's China, if it's India, if it's Russia or United States,
- 27:43including Europe is following United States.
- 27:45So what they are taking from partnership with Iran or
- 27:51Pakistan, it doesn't belong to Iran, it doesn't belong to
- 27:56Pakistan. It's Baluch.
- 27:59The ports belong to Baluch. The highways they use to connect
- 28:04with Afghanistan and Central Asia belong to Baluch.
- 28:10Oil, gold, rare earth every everything they are taking 90%
- 28:18is Baluch or it's from Sindhis or it's from Pashtuns or it's
- 28:24from Ahwazis or it's from Kurd. Persians and Punjabis don't own
- 28:31anything for which they are blackmailing the world or they
- 28:36are making partnerships with the world.
- 28:40Just they should think 1. The price.
- 28:44Who's giving the price of their greed?
- 28:48Baluch, it's not that only our resources are taken, it's not
- 28:56golden oil and other things. It's not our honour, our
- 29:03daughters. Every day our daughters are
- 29:06getting raped by Iranians and by Pakistanis, so-called Muslims,
- 29:14so-called champions of whatever they call.
- 29:19They are raping Muslim weapons and all the world powers are
- 29:28making deals with one or other their partnerships.
- 29:35They should think about that. They are not partnering to get
- 29:41our resources or are strategically important places.
- 29:48They are partnering in rape or art of our daughters they should
- 29:54think of. It, Mrs. Prime Minister.
- 29:57Instead of sorry, sorry, instead of going for this instant gains,
- 30:06if they support Maluchistan for liberation and come and sit with
- 30:11us, it's our things that they they need.
- 30:16We can sit with them and like dignified nations, we can make
- 30:21nice business contracts. Why not without blackmailing,
- 30:27without creating terrorism, without creating hate in the
- 30:30world? Very nicely, we can do it.
- 30:35This is Prime Minister. There's now a revolution ongoing
- 30:38in Iran and in the West of Iran. The Kurdish cities, two of them,
- 30:43have been already liberated. What's the status of affairs now
- 30:47in Balochistan, in the eastern region of Iran?
- 30:50And do you see that this revolution will be successful to
- 30:55enter the current terror regime of the mullahs and of Khamenei?
- 31:00Sure it is at the end. If you if you watch carefully,
- 31:07it's already at the end. Only international support, if
- 31:14it was given at Massa revolution, there was, there was
- 31:18already freedom of Iran. But the the support of
- 31:24international community, I don't know what they're waiting for.
- 31:29If they can interfere, if they can intervene in Ukraine, in
- 31:35Venezuela, in Iraq, in anywhere, why not Iran?
- 31:40Who's stopping them when people of Iran are asking them to
- 31:46intervene? People of Baluchistan are asking
- 31:50them to intervene. Not for regime change, for
- 31:53liberation. Ahwazis, they don't want, they
- 31:58don't don't want regime change. Whatever regime comes, it won't
- 32:02make a difference for us. So Kurz and Alwazi and Baluts,
- 32:06they are very clear about their liberation.
- 32:09The others, if they want to live with Persians, they can live.
- 32:13But change is there. People don't have food not
- 32:18because there are sanctions, because sanctions didn't work.
- 32:22Sanctions are only from Europe and America, but Russia, China,
- 32:27India are dealing with them. They have financial transactions
- 32:35everyday. So there is no matter of
- 32:39sanctions. They are incapable of giving
- 32:42food to their people. They are incapable of giving
- 32:45justice to their people. 55 prisons all over Iran are now
- 32:52dysfunctional. People are on hunger strike.
- 32:57It is 102nd week of hunger strike.
- 33:01Can you imagine one day intermittent fasting for a fancy
- 33:07fashion? It is is difficult for people.
- 33:10It's 100 in two weeks. People are on hunger strike.
- 33:16Mrs. Prime Minister, what do you want the United States of
- 33:19America to do now, when the revolution is ongoing in Iran?
- 33:24What do you want President Trump to do?
- 33:27Just come, please. You're most welcome.
- 33:29Come intervene. We will be welcoming you and we
- 33:37will sit with you and we will offer what you are trying to get
- 33:43from Pakistan and what you are trying to get from Iran.
- 33:48There should be intervention for Baluchistan's liberation, there
- 33:52should be intervention for Awaz liberation, there should be
- 33:55intervention for Kurdistan's freedom liberation and there
- 34:01should be intervention for freedom of Iran.
- 34:04We are not Iran, but freedom of Iran.
- 34:06People of Iran are suffering. People of Iran need justice,
- 34:10they need food, they need peace, and they are in the hands of
- 34:15most cruel people in the world. If somebody has, if you can, if
- 34:20you can meet survivor of a Holocaust, their experiences and
- 34:26their traumas only can relate to the traumas of people of Iran
- 34:31today. Mrs. Prime Minister, what do you
- 34:34want the European Union and the United Kingdom to do at this
- 34:37moment? United Kingdom is responsible
- 34:40for most of that mess. This generation is not
- 34:45responsible. Their forefathers were
- 34:47responsible. We don't say that they are
- 34:49responsible today, but their country was responsible for
- 34:53that. They they have a big
- 34:55responsibility to clean it. They have a big responsibility
- 34:59to undo what they have done with Kurdistan, with Baluchistan,
- 35:03with Iran, with India and European Union.
- 35:10The freedom, the human rights people enjoy there like the the
- 35:18people. You teach the world how people
- 35:22can live in peace. Because you have seen wars, you
- 35:24have seen violence. You know how much peace is
- 35:27important to that peace. We also need we need your
- 35:32support. We need support of European
- 35:35Union, we need support of United Kingdom, we need support of
- 35:39United States. We need support of everyone in
- 35:41the world who has conscience, who has a sense of justice, who
- 35:47who feels that every kind of terrorist activities all around
- 35:53the world are coming from this region, from this mentality,
- 35:58this mindset. We should control it.
- 36:03Mrs. Prime Minister, the leading figure international recognised
- 36:06of the Free Iran movement is the son of the former Shah of Iran
- 36:12and he wants to be the Shah again of Iran.
- 36:16How do you stand during the relation to the return of the
- 36:21Shah to Iran? I'm nobody to because
- 36:26Baluchistan is not Iran, it's occupied by Iran and for us Shah
- 36:33or Mullah are same but for people of Iran.
- 36:37What I can suggest, if he is interested, he should come and
- 36:42stand in elections. And if people of Iran give him
- 36:45vote, he can be a president or Prime Minister or whatever,
- 36:49because nobody can stop anybody from taking part in elections.
- 36:54But royalty and monarchy and kingships.
- 36:59It's past, it's gone. Nobody will accept it.
- 37:03When it comes to the process of international coalition building
- 37:07and the son of the Shah, Mr. Baklavi, he has basically tried
- 37:11major efforts to unite the opposition, and some of the
- 37:14regional opposition leaders have also endorsed Free Iran under
- 37:19his temporary guidance. Will you endorse him as well or
- 37:22do you think that the wrong way for a future?
- 37:26No. I don't, I don't think it's
- 37:28it's. It will help because if
- 37:31importance is people of Iran, then it won't help if they if
- 37:37people want another Khomeini like they brought Khomeini.
- 37:41Khomeini was not from Iran. He's basically Indian origin
- 37:45person and he was trained in France and he was imposed on
- 37:50Iran. So it was injustice with the
- 37:52people of Iran. So another injustice just to
- 37:55think that another this kind of proxy will work.
- 38:00I don't think I don't think that people of Iran will will agree
- 38:06because majority of the people living in Iran and the people
- 38:13who are in protests and marches, majority is is not with them.
- 38:19Even everywhere when there is a, a protest, the Iranian people
- 38:25protest is separated Kurdish and Azhar and Baluchi and Persians
- 38:31and you know, everybody is there.
- 38:33But the sharp people have their separate small protests.
- 38:37So they're not together here in, in Europe, in, in Americas, they
- 38:42are not together. So it's not that people will
- 38:45accept it. At the moment there is the
- 38:47revolution and it's basically in many assessment because there's
- 38:51already 20 revolutions in the last 47 years and the people are
- 38:55now thinking, many people I met in the recent discussions about
- 38:59Iran's future, they say that this is now the moment, now it's
- 39:03the time to rise. So what is your perception and
- 39:07what is the situation in the region of Paluchistan in Iran
- 39:10today? Are you in revolution?
- 39:13Do you call for uprising? Do you call for active
- 39:16resistance towards the occupation regime of Tehran?
- 39:19What is your call? What is your call for your
- 39:23people? What is the situation at the
- 39:25moment in the region of Baluchistan and how you think
- 39:30the end of the Muller regime can be achieved?
- 39:34Yeah, in Baluchistan people are protesting all over.
- 39:38All over Baluchistan there is protest where many times Baluts
- 39:44have proved that they can take over their places in eastern
- 39:48Baluchistan and in western Baluchistan they have proved
- 39:50that they have taken over large areas, cities and they have kept
- 39:55it for days. So they are ready to take over.
- 40:01Baluch people are ready for it and Baluch people were the
- 40:05people during MASA revolution. They were the most active people
- 40:10and most consistently they were on every Friday they were there
- 40:15in protests. And even women have joined it.
- 40:18So Baluchistan is ready and this is, this is the time, this is
- 40:24the time. It's already late.
- 40:26I think at the time of Masa revolution, there should be
- 40:29international intervention in Iran, but not too late.
- 40:34This is the time. It shouldn't be wasted because
- 40:37every day we are losing lives. Every day we are losing our
- 40:42young men and our women. So now it's the time for
- 40:45international intervention and also for revolution to end the
- 40:50current regime in Iran. This is Prime Minister.
- 40:54When you declare independence, what kind of country will
- 40:57Baluchistan be? Will it be with BRICS and with
- 41:01India, with China, with Russia? Or will it be part of the free
- 41:04world? It will be part of a free world
- 41:09because no one of the world powers have supported us.
- 41:17They have supported our occupiers, not us.
- 41:20So trusting them and becoming a part of them, their collisions
- 41:28or their platforms or their associations, I don't I don't
- 41:33see it's wise. The wisdom is in being work with
- 41:40free world and Baluchistan will be a democratic country.
- 41:44Baluchistan will be free for every culture, every religion,
- 41:50every gender and Baluchistan will be a place where everyone
- 41:56can speak, everyone can raise question, everyone can feel
- 42:02peace and right to life that is snatched from us and everybody
- 42:07will feel dignity. Dignity is the is the most
- 42:12precious thing we feel that we must have.
- 42:15Without this we can't breathe and we prefer free world.
- 42:19We are free people and we prefer free world and we prefer making
- 42:25nice contracts and nice mutual interests with all the free
- 42:34world who support us today, we will support them tomorrow.
- 42:39And whoever will stand with us today, we will stand with them
- 42:43tomorrow because our children will see this and it will be
- 42:47recognized in our history. Mrs. Prime Minister, how do you
- 42:52want to liberate the part of Baluchistan which is in
- 42:55Pakistan? Same in in Baluchistan, both of
- 43:02Baluchistan in Pakistan or in Iran both we we never have
- 43:08accepted that Goldsmith line. It's Baluchistan for us and we
- 43:13want to liberate and we are in process of liberation from
- 43:16Pakistan and Iran is the most reliable partner with Pakistan,
- 43:23the most active partner with Pakistan to keep Baluchistan,
- 43:28the eastern part of Baluchistan to stay occupied by Pakistan.
- 43:34So we are not fighting against Pakistan only in eastern
- 43:38Balustan only. Also it's Iran also working
- 43:42there, supporting them. There is a huge movement, it's a
- 43:46huge civil rights movement. It's a huge movement of for the
- 43:51from the families of disappeared people.
- 43:53In every city of Balochistan, people are sitting in protests
- 43:57with the pictures of enforced disappeared people. 65,000
- 44:01people are disappeared, enforced. 65,000 people.
- 44:05Yeah. By only by Pakistan.
- 44:08Only by Pakistan. Yeah.
- 44:09And it it includes women, it includes children, it includes
- 44:14even babies, newborn babies. A woman, honey.
- 44:18Now they have abducted Pakistani military Honey Baluch.
- 44:23She is 8 months pregnant. They have taken her and they,
- 44:28they don't have mercy on, on anyone and especially women are
- 44:35their targets because they are afraid of men, because men can
- 44:41fight back. But they Baluch women are
- 44:43fighting back now. Baluch women are joining
- 44:45military now Baluch armies. Baluch women are because dying
- 44:51by disgracing and dying by rape and torture by the hands of
- 44:56Pakistan or Iran. It's better to die by by
- 45:00fighting for, for your honour. So this is the only way left
- 45:05with Baluch people to fight back there.
- 45:08There is no law, there is no rule of justice.
- 45:12There is no court that that works for us.
- 45:15There is no one, no institution in both parts of Baluchistan
- 45:19that Baluch people can rely on. So it's a it's a civil rights
- 45:25situation is like it's a course. It's it's, it's a situation that
- 45:32civil war, it's a situation that people have have no other option
- 45:37to to survive as a as a peaceful citizen.
- 45:42Mrs. Prime Minister, now after this military intervention of
- 45:46America in Venezuela, how are your hopes that the President
- 45:50Trump is really going to help in the case of Iran?
- 45:55Like hopes from people of the region are elevated and they are
- 46:03expecting a lot. And let's see, because we cannot
- 46:09predict because we were expecting it at the time of NASA
- 46:12revolution. So you can see that people are
- 46:19on the roads, people are protesting, people are marching,
- 46:23people are going arrest every day.
- 46:25They are arresting people every day, they are torturing people.
- 46:28It's going on and this is the high time that international
- 46:34intervention, European Union should should support it and
- 46:38United States should, should come up.
- 46:41Have you been already to the European capital of the European
- 46:45Union in Brussels? And yeah, sure, you present your
- 46:48case. Many times and.
- 46:51How is the reception of independence of Baluchistan in
- 46:54Brussels? It's good.
- 46:56It's good. Actually.
- 46:58People are very supportive. People are very open.
- 47:02They provide us a place in the European Union's head office
- 47:08actually for our conferences. It's open, it's open.
- 47:12We at least have a place to speak and they listen to us.
- 47:17That's that's great. In the US, Congress also wants a
- 47:22bill for the liberation of Baluchistan was presented.
- 47:25It didn't work well, it didn't go forward.
- 47:30And but yeah, it was. It happened, so it can happen
- 47:35again. So for the timeline, what do you
- 47:38expect to 2026? It will be the see the
- 47:41establishment of independent Baluchistan.
- 47:44Yeah, sure, sure. Very good.
- 47:48Mrs. Prime Minister, I want to thank you very much for this
- 47:51interview. Also, I want to express that I
- 47:53fully support the independence of Baluchistan and I hope that
- 47:57your people will live in freedom and in peace and in prosperity.
- 48:01And I want to thank you very much also for your courageous
- 48:04fight for the freedom of the Baluch people.
- 48:06Thank. You so much.
- 48:08Thank you, Linda. It was very nice to talk to you.
- 48:10Thanks a lot. All the best.
- 48:12And for the fall of the Iranian regime, this is really what we
- 48:17all hope that is happening now, 2020.
- 48:20As soon as possible. The freedom to come to the old
- 48:24people of Iran and especially the Baluch and the courts.
- 48:27Thanks a lot. All the best for talking to me
- 48:30and I will stop there. Let's stop.
