UNSC Must Hold US Aggressors Accountable for Ceasefire Violations: Iran
Esmaeil Baghaedi emphasized that such acts of aggression against the territorial integrity and national sovereignty of Iran are a gross violation of international law and the UN Charter and the UN Security Council must fulfill its legal responsibility to hold the American aggressors accountable.
Slamming the US’ continued violations of the ceasefire dated April 9, especially the attacks on commercial shipping in the Persian Gulf region and high seas, as well as the airstrikes on southern regions of Iran over the past few days, the Foreign Ministry spokesperson emphasized the Islamic Republic of Iran’s determination to take all necessary measures to defend the country’s national sovereignty and territorial integrity in accordance with Article 51 of the UN Charter.
He also condemned the threatening rhetoric of American officials against Iran and some other countries in the region, and expressed solidarity with the friendly and brotherly country of Oman after US President Donald Trump threatened to “blow up” the Arab country.
“Threats to ‘blow up’ a United Nations member state that has always played a constructive, effective, and responsible role in regional peace and security and has used its good offices in the service of regional peace and stability as a mediator in diplomatic processes for many years are not only a violation of the fundamental principle of prohibiting the threat of the use of force, but also another dangerous sign of the normalization of lawlessness and bullying in international relations,” Baghaei emphasized.
