Iranian Official Condemns US for Voting against UN Human Rights Resolutions
TEHRAN (Tasnim) - The secretary-general of Iran's Human Rights Office censured the United States for voting against two human rights resolutions at the United Nations General Assembly.
In a Tweet on Friday, Kazem Gharibabadi reacted to the United States’ attempt to hamper two human rights resolutions, calling it a “Bad News For Human Rights”.
“The US has voted against 2 important UNGA resolutions: Resolution on condemning all forms of racism. The US and Ukraine voted against, 49 abstained and 130 in favor. This resolution is proposed since 2015 and the US has voted against it every time,” he wrote in a post on his Twitter page.
“Second, resolution on "The right to food" reaffirming that hunger constitutes an outrage and a violation of human dignity, requiring the adoption of urgent measures at different levels for its elimination, with a vote of 186 in favor, 2 against (Israel, US), with no abstentions,” Gharibabadi continued, IRNA reported.
The United States has a long history of showing all-out support to the Zionist regime even when the Zionists commit crimes against humanity in dealing with the oppressed Palestinian people.
