Formed in the 1960s, the Mujahedin-e-Khalq(MEK) is an Iranian terrorist organization based mostly in Iraq, where it received financial support from Saddam Hussein's regime. MEK's principal objective is the overthrow of the existing Iranian regime to replace it with a democratic and secular government. MEK plans to install the National Council of Resistance of Iran(NCRI), a political coalition of Iranian opposition groups affiliated with MEK, as interim administration and leader Maryam Rajavi as president. To achieve their objectives, MEK's past activities have included assassinations, armed attacks, hostage-taking, mortar attacks and hit-and-run raids against government and military personnel and infrastructure. 3, record 2, English, - Mujahedin%2De%2DKhalq%20Organization

Fondée dans les années 1960, l'organisation terroriste iranienne Mujahedin-e-Khalq (MEK) est basée principalement en Irak où elle a reçu un soutien financier du gouvernement de Saddam Hussein. Son principal objectif consiste à renverser le régime au pouvoir en Iran pour y substituer un gouvernement séculier démocratique. Le MEK veut former un gouvernement intérimaire dirigé par le Conseil national de la résistance iranienne (CNRI), une coalition de groupes d'opposition iraniens avec laquelle elle a partie liée, et présidé par Maryam Radjavi. Pour atteindre ses buts, le MEK a déjà commis des assassinats, des attaques armées, des enlèvements, des attaques au mortier et des raids éclair contre le personnel et les installations de l'armée et du gouvernement. 8, record 2, French, - Mujahedin%2De%2DKhalq%20Organization
