Iranians respond to High Commissioner for Human Rights: We are Iranians

  • Iranians respond to High Commissioner for Human Rights: We are Iranians

Iranians of various ethnicities responded to the claim made by Michel Bachelet, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights.

In his latest tweet to the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, who claimed that a coordinated campaign in Iran has been targeting minority groups in our country since December, the secretary of the High Council for Human Rights wrote that Iranian ethnic groups are not 'minorities', they are all Iranians. "If the veils of politics did not prevent you from traveling to Iran and you were allowed to see the realities of Iran up close, you would understand how Lors, Kurds, Turks, Turkmen, Arabs, Baluches, Fars, etc. shout out loud: We are Iranians.”

 

Michelle Bachelet has used the term "minority" for Iranians, while according to Article 19 of the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Iranians of all ethnicities and tribes have equal rights and color, race, language and alike will not cause any concessions and the same practice has been going on in Iran for the past four decades.

 

Although in different countries, the multiplicity of ethnicities and ethnicities is one of the concerns, but the Islamic Republic of Iran has provided an opportunity for all ethnic groups with any dialect and culture to be able to manifest their initiatives and concerns in various social, economic, political and cultural fields.

 

In response to Bachelet, cyberspace users on Twitter came up with some very interesting and shocking answers that are worth reviewing.

 

Majid Bameri (Baluch) writes: For the information of Ms. Commissioner, do you know the fate of the British who one hundred years ago in the south of Sistan and Baluchestan intended to invade our dear Iran?

As a Baluch, I say that any foreigners who intend to invade my homeland, will face the fate of Nalak Valley.

The view of the Islamic Republic on ethnic diversity is that different traditions, customs and diversities is an opportunity for different components of this nation to complement each other with a perfect coexistence and unity. It is an honor for our nation that our system has such an approach to the issue of ethnic diversity.
