VOA – French President Emmanuel Macron met a delegation of exiled Iranian rights activists on November 11, later hailing the female-led protest movement in the country as a “revolution.” Iran has for the last weeks been rocked by protests triggered by the death of Mahsa Amini, who had been arrested by the morality police. The movement has turned into the biggest challenge for the clerical regime since the 1979 revolution. The Iranian delegation included U.S.-based activist Masih Alinejad and Ladan Boroumand, the co-founder of a Washington-based rights group. To read the original story from AFP, click here.
