Deeds, Words Of So-called HR Advocates, Contradictory - MP

Tehran, Jan 23, IRNA – A parliamentarian said Wednesday that deeds and words of the so-called advocates of human rights are contradictory. Mohammad Ali Esfanani, rapporteur of Majlis Legal and Judicial Commission, told IRNA that claims made by certain countries on human rights in the Islamic Republic of Iran are not based on realities. The issue of human rights has always been a challenging question for the United Nations, he added. Despite violation of human rights in western states, the international human rights reporters have always adopted anti-Iran stands, said the MP./end
