The High Council for Human Rights tweeted in response to the report of the UN Secretary General on the situation of human rights in Iran and noted: “The UN Secretary General has cited false sources and disinformation in his report on the human rights situation in Iran, and has distorted that false data too (paragraph 40). Trying to turn positive services into negatives and exaggerating the statistics leaves no doubt in the politicization and its invalidity.”
“Converting the service of shelters for homeless people, into the number of homeless people and multiplying it a hundred times (paragraph 61) and inserting the statistics of ten years instead of one year (paragraph 22) are some examples;” the HCHR added.
It also refers to the underlying of comprehensive sanctions against Iran to “sectoral sanctions (paragraph 3),” and says: “failure to refer to sanctions as "illegal", "deadly" and "harmful" as in the UN reporters' report as well as failure to identify the responsibility of perpetrators of the sanctions and only requesting humanitarian exceptions but not lifting all sanctions, all show the Secretary-General's association with the violators of the rights of the Iranian people.”
“Unfortunately, this report does not mention the very important incident of the assassination of Iranian nuclear scientist Shahid Fakhrizadeh, who was developing the corona vaccine. The report emphasizes only the negative points, ignores the human rights achievements of the Islamic Republic of Iran and its obstacles;” the tweets adds.
It is worth mentioning that at the forty-seventh session of the UN Human Rights Council, Antonio Guterres, Secretary General of the United Nation without referring to the responsibility and accountability of violators of the rights of the Iranian people and imposers of the sanctions, as well as the assassination of Iran's nuclear scientist, has addressed the Islamic Republic of Iran, solely on the basis of reports from dissidents and has ignored Iran's human rights achievements.
