🔶 Pazeshkian's request to compensate Iran for the environmental damages of the war.
Massoud Pazhkian, the president of Iran, called in his speech at the UN Climate Change Conference (Cup 31) in Turkey on Wednesday, November 11 (Aven 20), for the international community to compensate for the damages caused, referring to the environmental aspects of the attacks against the Salami Republic.
He clarified: "We expect the international community and the responsible organizations to create a real connection between climate commitments in times of peace and responsibilities in times of war, and by documenting the environmental damage caused by military aggression, they will strengthen the compensation mechanisms."
The president of Iran claimed that the attacks by the United States and Israeli prisoners on the fuel facilities in the country "caused the release of 1.5 million tons of carbon dioxide." Referring to the "estimates", he added: "The ground attack on the fuel facilities in Aslua caused the release of about 500,000 tons of carbon dioxide, and the targeted ground attack on the fuel tanks in the vicinity of Tehran caused the release of about one million tons of carbon dioxide."
Pazhkian called the environment "the silent victim of wars".
