According to Iran Press, Kazem Gharibabadi wrote in a tweet on Wednesday night:

The USA fully supports the assassination of thousands of Iranian women and children by terrorist groups, imposes cruel and barbaric sanctions with irreparable effects, especially on women and children, and fully supports the killing of Iranian women and children by the Saddam regime during the imposed war so that it has shown the only thing that it does not think about in Iran is the rights of women and girls.

He added: "The US government is only pursuing its inhumane and anti-human rights interests and goals behind its fraudulent and hypocritical statements."

The American government and its western allies, despite the claims of a diplomatic approach at the same time as the recent events in Iran, by interfering in the internal affairs of the Islamic Republic and aligning with the opposition, supported the unrest and proposed a draft resolution to terminate Iran's membership in the United Nations Commission on Women. to make a decision about this in ECOSOC to establish a dangerous heresy in the United Nations for non-aligned countries.
