Iranian opposition welcomes censure on human rights abuses in Iran
Saturday, 21 November 2009
NCRI - The Italian News Agency ANSA reported on Friday that the Iranian opposition has warmly welcomed a vote at the Human Rights Commission of the UN condemning rights abuses in Iran.
According to ANSA, the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, Maryam Rajavi, has said that the vote confirms that human rights violations have taken incredibly horrific dimensions since the start of the mass protests in June.
ANSA quoted Mrs. Rajavi as saying that the Iranian regime does not deserve a place among the family of nations and the time has come for the imposition of new sanctions, not only for the sake of human rights in Iran, but also in the face of the regime’s threatening plans to acquire a nuclear weapon.
The Reuters news agency reported that “Maryam Rajavi, head of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, an Iranian exile group, said the resolution exhibited a global consensus ‘against religious fascism ruling Iran.’”
