Afghans should not fall victim to Taliban actions
Tehran, Oct 17, IRNA -- At the 56th session of United Nations
General Assembly held on October 15, Iran's permanent representative
to UN Hadi Nejad Hosseinian said, "The innocent people of Afghanistan
should not fall victim to the actions of Taliban militia in
Afghanistan."
He referred to decades of inaction of UN Security Council with
respect to crisis-stricken regions in the world, especially Middle
East, as a clear sign of inefficiency of the Security Council.
He added, "Though UN Security Council has been asked many times
to end the occupation and atrocities of the racist regime of
Israel, use of veto right or the threat to use it has prevented the
Security Council from fulfilling its duty on various occasions."
Pointing to the continuation of Israeli occupation, he said that
the use of veto right last March didn't help the Middle East crisis.
He added, "The presence of international monitoring forces in
the region could definitely prevent the death of many people."
He also said that the Security Council paid attention to the
situation in Afghanistan by passing a resolution, and focused on
the issue of Taliban militia granting asylum to international
terrorists.
He further hoped that the UN Security Council would consider
different aspects of Afghanistan crisis and declared Iran's
readiness to support different UN organizations to establish peace
and security as well as to create a stable government in Afghanistan.
