The review of Trita Parsi and Mansouri’s communications shows that the 2005-2007 projects funded by NED and Eurasia Funds were limited to the activities of one single person, Mohammad Mansouri who was hired by NIAC as NGO consultant. He reported his activities to Trita Parsi and Parsi reported back to NED and EF.

National Iranian American Council (NIAC) and its president Trita Parsi arranged to receive congressional appropriated funds from the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) and Eurasia Foundation. NIAC’s projects were approved and welcomed by the Iranian regime. The Iranian foreign ministry asked NIAC to coordinate its projects with Hamyaran. Consequently, NIAC’s main partner in Tehran was Hamyaran.
