Iranian FM appreciates responsible position of “Friends of the UN Charter” Group and its solidarity with Iran and opposition to unilateralism by a few countries

The seventh meeting of the foreign ministers of the “Friends of the UN Charter” group has been held on the sidelines of the annual UN General Assembly in New York, with the participation of the top diplomats of member states and the presence and speech of Iran’s Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi.

In his remarks at the meeting, Araghchi thanked the responsible positions of the “Friends of the UN Charter” group for their solidarity with Iran through condemning the aggression of the Zionist regime and the US against Iran, as well as for the adoption of a special declaration regarding the heinous attacks on Iran’s peaceful nuclear facilities.

The foreign minister also referred to the catastrophic humanitarian situation in Palestine. He spoke about the ongoing Israeli genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes, and its use of hunger to eradicate the Palestinian people by the Israeli regime with US support. Araghchi underlined the necessity of concrete and effective measures to stop these crimes, including refraining from any assistance to this regime, imposing strong and effective sanctions by the Security Council, and bringing the Zionist regime’s criminal leaders to justice through effective international cooperation. Araghchi further appreciated the efforts of the “Friends of the UN Charter” group in countering unilateral coercive measures and welcomed the adoption of the draft resolution by the group in the General Assembly, which, with the joint support of its members including Iran, designates the International Day for Combating Unilateral Coercive Measures.
