Tehran, YJC. Mohammad Javad Larijani has met with a UN Human Rights High Commissioner to discuss improvement of technical cooperation between Iran and the Commissioner.
The Head of the High Council for Human Rights of the Islamic Republic
of Iran appreciated Navi Pillay for her clear stance on the violation of human
rights by the US around the world including the Guantanamo Bay detention camp, Baghdad
Central Prison (formerly known as Abu Graib prison), and Bagram issues, considering it
as important to the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Larijani also condemned UN on appointing a rapporteur for Iran as well
as the content of Ahmed Shaheed’s report.
The Head of the High Council for Human Rights of the Islamic Republic
of Iran added "The special reporter is backed by the United States and European
governments which renders his unprofessional, unjust, and totally biased words
the same as those that the terrorists, as well as the US and some European
countries utter. Such trend is unwholesome and ruinous to the prestige of the UN.”
