"Mr President, the list of human rights violations in Iran is a very long one. There have been clampdowns by the authorities on civil activists, political activists, journalists, artists, lawyers and environmentalists.
At the same time, in Iran there is routine trampling on the rights of women, freedom of association and the rights of religious and ethnic minorities. The number of those receiving the death penalty in Iran only continues to increase, and even children, women and young people are known to have been brutally executed. The fate of those languishing in prison has been inhumane conditions and even torture. Trials have not been independent.
Iran’s casual attitude to its international human rights obligations must be condemned in no uncertain words. For adherence to the principles of freedom of religion, a ban on the use of torture, the rights of minorities and other universal human rights are the only sustainable basis for social balance. Iran is playing a dangerous game, because there are limits to a nation’s tolerance."@en1
