Of all the lies the Iranian delegation has spewed so far today, it’s the Dep Minister for Media etc. who has so far taken the cake, spinning a fictional tale of media freedom, access to information, and respect for journalists. His stories were almost impossible for me to stomach

I remember when these targeted sanctions tools were used against arms dealers & narco traffickers. Now it seems UN special rapporteurs are being targeted for travel bans & asset freezes? This is political theater and an unbecoming use of the power and impact of these tools.

Iran’s recent crackdown on foreign nationals has also targeted Afghans legally residing in the country. Ahmad-Reza Radan, head of FARAJA, the entity leading this crackdown, is responsible for the violation of the rights of these legally residing Afghans. He’s sanctioned (US/EU)
