Iran recognizes the rights of protesters but not rioters
The Spokesman for Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that Tehran recognizes the right to peaceful protest based on regulations.
Protest and criticism are legal and acceptable but the riot is unconstructive.

Western illegal interventions in Iran's internal affairs

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman reacting to some western countries' propaganda over recent protests in Iran and supporting riots said: "These group of countries repeatedly commented on issues that Iran announced that they are investigating the dimensions of the issue. Expressing an opinion on an issue that is being investigated in terms of dimension and time frame in the country in question is prejudice, and Iran considers neither prejudice nor intervention constructive. "
"We believe the protest is legal and the Islamic Republic of Iran accepts protests but riots are unconstructive and foreign support for the riots will not help the voices of the protesters and critics to reach the officials in charge," Kanaani stressed.
Iran doesn't provide any weapons to Ukraine or Russia

Kanaani stressed, "We know that these political motives serve as cover up for western providers of weapon in the war."
US biggest holder of female prisoners
Iran's FM Spox reacted to the possible removal of Iran from the convention of women's rights calling the United States the biggest prison keeper and prison maker in the world.

In response to the possibility of removing Iran from the Convention on Women's Rights, the spokesman for Iran's Ministry of Foreign affairs said, while pointing out that removing a member from this convention is not defined:
"US claims to defend women's rights, while the US government is the biggest prison keeper and prison maker, and There are more than 11,200 female prisoners in America which means one third of World's female prisoners who are not even allowed to be visited by any official or media."
Instead of paying attention to its internal affairs and its citizens, the US government is interfering in the affairs of other countries.
