AhlulBayt News Agency: The deputy envoy at the permanent mission of Iran to the United Nations Office says that Iran will continue the legitimate right of self-defense to complete end of US-Israeli aggression.
Speaking at a session of the United Nations Conference on Disarmament on Tuesday, Reza Dehghani, while strongly condemning the military aggression of the United States and the Israeli regime against Iran’s national sovereignty and territorial integrity, emphasized that Iran has no hostility towards its neighbors, but the countries that have allowed their territory to be used to attack Iran must be held accountable for the consequences of this action.
Attacks against civilians and civilian targets in Iran still continue, he said, adding that every day a large number of innocent women and children lose their lives as a result of the blind attacks of the American and Israeli regimes.
He emphasized that aggression and the use of force should not be normalized in the international relations and that no power has the right to replace international law.
Elsewhere in his remarks, Dehghani emphasized that Iran fully enjoys its inherent right to self-defense under Article 51 of the United Nations Charter, and that Iran's defensive actions are limited to the targets, bases, and military forces of the aggressor in the region.
As some neighboring countries are providing their territory for attacks against Iran, the Islamic Republic of Iran has the right, in accordance with General Assembly Resolution 3314 and international law, to target the origin of these attacks to stop the aggression.
In the end, Dehghani called on the responsible countries and members of the UN Security Council to condemn this blatant aggression with a responsible approach, reiterating that Iran will continue to exercise its right to legitimate defense until security is restored and the aggression is completely stopped.
