The ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the United Nations criticized the United State’s meddlesome positions on Iran’s internal affairs.
In response to the interfering statements by the United States on Iran’s internal affairs, the Iranian envoy wrote a letter to the United Nations Security Council and the Secretary-General, Mehr News Agency reported.
In his letter, Amir Saeed Iravani stated that no principle or rule of international law allows any government to incite violence, destabilize societies, or engineer chaos under the guise of human rights or the pretext of supporting the people.
Iravani emphasized that such claims are an obvious distortion of international law and cannot be used as a tool to justify coercion, threats, or interfering policies.
He stressed that the Islamic Republic firmly and unequivocally rejects America’s destabilizing actions that weaken the Charter of the United Nations, violate fundamental principles of international law, and pose a threat to the foundations of international peace and security.
The continuation of such behaviors, if not effectively countered, will create a dangerous precedent and seriously undermine the rule-based international order on which the United Nations is founded, Iravani underlined.
The spokesperson for Iran’s Foreign Ministry also said that the blatant statements by the US and Israeli officials makes their intervention in recent riots clear.
“Since last Friday, our country has been facing a wave of armed and unarmed rioters in various provinces; simultaneously, we witnessed interventionist statements by American and Zionist officials. If in similar cases in our country or other states they had hidden their interventions behind vague or deceptive titles like democracy or human rights, this time they explicitly declared their presence," Esmaeil Baghaei said in his weekly presser on Monday.
Referring to the remarks by Mike Pompeo, former US secretary of state, Baghaei said that even everyone saw that one of the former American officials who is still trying to play his old role in media and propaganda, explicitly stated that he extends his New Year’s greetings to the people of Iran and those on the streets alongside Mossad agents.
“This was just one example, and the interventionist statements by American and Zionist officials were clearly aimed at creating violence, chaos, and instability in our country, and taking more lives and casualties from our people.”
“These actions are absolutely in violation of all international norms and rules. We are certain that the US and the Zionist regime have no respect for international principles and rules, and these are the foundations for interactions and dialogues between nations. We must demonstrate, based on these principles, how interventionist actions by America and the Zionist regime are despicable and ugly, and all these cases will be documented at the international level.”
