Women movement FEMEN Protest “Week of Iranian Barbarism”

Today FEMEN girls ripped the opening of Week of Iranian Culture in Ukraine by bursting in the first event topless. Girls in wreaths, with the loops around their necks and in paranjas interrupted the speech of Iranian Ambassador Akbar Gasemi Ali-Abady with slogans like “Don’t kill your women” and “Stop the bloody regime”. Sure, brave Iranian men didn’t confuse – they rudely grabbed girls and took them off in one moment.

As you can remember in November, 3rd, FEMEN expressed their protest near the Iranian Embassy. It was due to the scandal story around the Iranian woman who was blamed in the adultery and sentenced to the death penalty by stones beating. Alexandra Shevchenko stated that FEMEN won’t accept such an ugly gender discrimination wherever it is.

“During the last Protest Ambassador refused to come out and talk to us so we had to come to him by ourselves. We want to show to all the civilized countries that the only way to stop these barbaric traditions is total boycott of all Islamic world. Our first requirement is to cease the diplomatic relations between Ukraine and Islamic Republic of Iran. Also, the fact that Week of Iranian Culture in Ukraine came a week after the scandal with Sakina Mohammad Ashtiany convicted of treason deceased husband, whose penalty set aside only under the pressure of world public opinion, seems to be just a mockery. This delay is the first victory over the most brutal regime, which must be secured but not skipped past”- says Anna Gutsol, leader of the women movement FEMEN
