As President Donald Trump’s historic ceasefire is implemented, the uncertainty surrounding Iran’s future and the drive for regime change has led the main Iranian opposition groups to actively debate who is most suited to replace the mullahs.

In an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital, Maryam Rajavi, the president-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), addressed questions concerning the group’s stances and strategies aimed at encouraging the Iranian populace to revolt against the regime.

Rajavi is at the helm of this controversial group, which is connected to Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK). Previously designated as a terrorist organization by the U.S., the group was removed from the list in 2012 and is recognized for initially uncovering the Islamic Republic of Iran’s nuclear weapons ambitions.

Excerpts of Fox News Digital’s interview with Maryam Rajavi follow.

: Only through a democratic process—free and fair elections. 

According to the NCRI’s plan, the provisional government established after the regime’s fall is obligated to organize elections for a Constituent and Legislative Assembly within six months—free elections through direct and secret ballot. Once convened, this Assembly will assume governance, tasked with drafting a new constitution and managing national affairs. The provisional government’s mandate will conclude upon the Assembly’s establishment, which will then appoint a new interim government reflective of the people’s vote. 

The Iranian people look neither to the past nor the current status quo but forward—to a free and democratic future, where legitimacy derives solely from the ballot box.
