️🇮🇷🇺🇸. Spokesman Ismail Baka'i of the Iranian Foreign Ministry:
Ever since the military aggression of America and Israel, during the period when we were at the height of the conflict, we have been in contact with the relevant departments of the United Nations.
Even then we announced that we were ready to cooperate to help deliver humanitarian supplies.
Look, the issue must be seen at its root. The UN was obliged from the beginning to take a stand against this blatant military aggression by America and Israel.
The violation of Article 2, Section 4 of the UN Charter is not something that can be easily passed over or resolved through a diplomatic statement and a call for restraint on both sides.
The UN organizations have a responsibility in this matter. Right now, as we speak, instead of turning to Iran, they should turn to the instigator and cause of this situation, the one that boasts of implementing sanctions and an economic blockade against Iran, thus disrupting the flow of shipping and the arrival of goods to Iran.
Therefore, in any discussion regarding the security of the Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf, we must not forget the reality that America is the cause and sole cause of this situation.
