Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Saturday urged Iranian dissidents to “keep up the fight” against the hardline regime in Tehran — as a top dissident group gathered in a summit to renew calls for a secular and democratic Iran.

“We must continue to support the Iranian people as they fight for a freer and more democratic Iran in any way that we can,” Pompeo told attendees at the National Council of Resistance of Iran’s (NCRI) “Free Iran World Summit.” “There is so much good work that American civil society can do to further this goal. It is work that your organization is actively engaged in – keep up the fight.”

Pompeo was one of a number of speakers from both sides of the aisle, including Sens. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, Cory Booker, D-N.J., Robert Menendez, D-N.J., and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., along with politicians from Europe.
