		Or la situation de crise et la violente répression qui prévalent depuis plusieurs années en Iran, la torture, les détentions illégales, les disparitions d'opposants et les exécutions sommaires font de ce pays une menace pour la sécurité physique des opposants.

		The Union des Forces Progressistes (UFP) is at an unmistakable crossroads in its organizational development.
		Yet, the case of the Scottish Socialist Party, which recently won six seats in the Scottish elections, shows that it is highly possible to build and lead social/political struggles, such as the fight against Margaret Thatcher’s hated Poll Tax, as a party and to win the support of other militants through consistent efforts.

		As long as it was the sole voice of separatist forces, the PQ could afford to placate Quebec voters by putting sovereignty on the back burner.
		It was a strategy that was easily justified by Quebecers’; apathy towards the separatist undertaking and their lack of enthusiasm at the prospect of a third sovereignty referendum.
		While caution dictates not overestimating the impact, nor the importance of this new arrival in Quebec’s political landscape, it is possible to predict that the Union des forces progressistes will push the PQ towards clarifying and firming up its stand on Quebec separation.
