NCRI (National Council of Resistance of Iran)

The National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) is a political organization that opposes the current Iranian government. It acts as a coalition of various groups and aims to promote democracy, human rights, and regime change in Iran. The NCRI also works to raise international awareness about issues like political repression and nuclear proliferation in Iran. While it claims to represent opposition forces, it is considered a major opponent of the Iranian government, and its prominent member, the MEK (Mujahedin-e Khalq), has a controversial history.
