Iranian opposition groups

Iranian opposition groups are exiled organizations seeking to overthrow the Islamic Republic of Iran. These groups, often based outside Iran, advocate for regime change and a transition to a different form of government. They are newsworthy due to their vocal opposition to the current Iranian government and their attempts to influence events within Iran, sometimes calling for demonstrations and regime change. Recent events include their encouragement of protestors to seize state institutions during violent protests within Iran, a call supported by figures like Donald Trump. Their relevance stems from their potential to influence internal unrest and shape international policy towards Iran, particularly regarding US intervention and the future of the Islamic Republic.
