Iran slams UN for 'unjust, biased' human rights report.
Iran on Tuesday slammed a recent UN report which criticized the human rights situation in the country saying it was “politically motivated” and “unjust.”
UN Deputy High Commissioner for Human Rights Nada al-Nashif on Tuesday presented a report by the body’s chief Antonio Guterres, criticizing the human rights situation in Iran, including the increase in the rate of executions, and the ill-treatment of protesters by security forces.
The Iranian foreign ministry slammed the report on Tuesday night.
“As we have several times emphasized, such resolutions are politically motivated, unjust, biased, and not based on the reality of the exalted human rights which is one of the main tasks of international human rights institutions, and was not based on the consensus of all UN member states,” ministry spokesperson Saeed Khatibzadeh told Iranian state media.
Khatibzadeh stated that Guterres had made “false claims” and presented documents based on unreliable sources.
The spokesperson added that a detailed and inclusive report had been handed to all countries’ representatives at the UN Human Rights Council, presenting Iran’s “logical viewpoints” on all the points mentioned by the UN chief.
The report also highlighted the “excessive use of force” by security forces against protestors which led to the death of at least 5 people during antigovernment demonstrations that erupted across Iran in May.
Protests against inflation and surging prices of goods spread across several provinces after the government cut food subsidies.
