Mottaki denounces UNSC's dual stands

Charmahal-o-Bakhtiari, June 17, IRNA – Iran's Foreign Minister here Wednesday denounced the UN Security Council’s double standards on Iran’s peaceful nuclear program versus Israel’s murder of Int’l Peace Flotilla aid workers.

Manouchehr Mottaki who was speaking with the press on the sidelines of the government’s 3rd provincial tour of Charmahal-o-Bakhtiari Province, stressed that Iran has not violated any regulations in its nuclear program, but receives another UNSC resolution, but in case of Israel that has committed such a big violation of the international laws they suffice in launching certain investigations!

He reiterated, “That is while there have so far been 20 reports indicating the peaceful nature of Iran’s nuclear program by the UN nuclear watchdog, but all the same, another resolution is issued against us.”

Mottaki reiterated that “by behaving so, the Security Council members have ignored both the status and the prestige of that council, losing credibility among nations and governments more than ever before.”

Mottaki said, “All those who speak about imposing sanctions against Iran know very well that such a literature belonged to 40 years ago and that it is both meaningless and worthless today, and therefore, the pioneers of this move, atop which the United States, would suffer greatest losses from launching it.”

Mottaki reiterated, “Of course we would in accordance with the country’s interests and expediency reflect Iran’s criticism to the countries that have voted positively to this resolution.”

The resolution in question was issued mainly to save the face of its initiators and to get them out of the passive status they were suffering, Mottaki said, adding, “such moves are totally worthless from the viewpoint of the Iranian nation.”/end
