The National Movement of the Iranian Resistance (NAMIR; Persian: نهضت مقاومت ملی ایران) is a political organization founded by Shapour Bakhtiar in 1979.
This organization has several publications and two radio stations.
The National Resistance Movement of Iran was founded with the inspiration of the resistance movement that emerged immediately after the coup d'état on August 19, 1953 to confront the dictatorship and took the name of the National Resistance Movement. In 1959, the National Resistance Movement of Iran was founded by Shapoor Bakhtiar and a group of pro-opposition figures to fight against the ruling regime in Iran and to achieve the following goals:
Establishing a government based on national sovereignty and social justice.
Separation of religion from government in all aspects of the country
Maintaining the independence and territorial integrity of the country and national solidarity
The National Resistance Movement of Iran considers its struggle in the sequence of the struggles of the National Movement of Iran and the National Front. The struggles that have been ongoing since the beginning of the constitutional revolution until today to achieve the demands of the Iranian nation, namely democracy, independence, territorial integrity, and law-based military establishment. The National Resistance Movement of Iran considers itself one of the guardians of the national movement of Iran and in turn tries to make a more effective contribution to the struggle of the Iranian nation to build a free and prosperous Iran by expanding the range of activities and uniting with other Iranian nationalists.
