Iran interim FM heads to New York to attend two key UN Security Council meetings
Iran’s interim foreign minister has set off for New York to take part in two United Nations Security Council meetings focusing on the developments in Palestine and multilateralism.
Heading a delegation, Ali Bagheri Kani left Tehran for New York on Monday.
The meetings will be chaired by Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov under the rotating presidency of Vassily A. Nebenzia, who holds the 15-member world body’s rotating presidency for July.
Addressing a press conference on July 1, Nebenzia said the meeting on multilateral cooperation in establishing a more just, democratic and sustainable world order will be held on July 16.
“There is a high demand in the international community for a strategic discussion on the future security architecture beyond the horizon of the current crises,” he said.
Pointing to a ministerial-level open debate on the West Asia region on July 17, Nebenzia added, “Obviously, the situation in Palestine will remain in the spotlight.”
Israel unleashed its brutal war on Gaza on October 7, 2023, after the Hamas resistance group carried out its historic operation against the occupying entity in retaliation for the regime’s intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.
According to the Gaza Health Ministry, the Tel Aviv regime has so far killed at least 38,584 Palestinians, mostly women, and children, in Gaza, and injured 88,881 others.
Recently, The Lancet, a leading general medical journal, estimated that the death toll from the Israeli aggression could be 186,000 or even more as many Palestinians have succumbed to the indirect impacts of the Gaza war.
