Envoy: Iran has always been committed to paying its membership dues on time

Envoy: Iran has always been committed to paying its membership dues on time
The top diplomat has said that unfortunately, for the second year in a row, we faced the problem of paying our membership fee, which is due to the imposition of oppressive and unilateral US sanctions against Iran.
 
The envoy noted: "The oppressive US sanctions have not only affected various areas, including medicine, the supply of human items, medical equipment, etc., but have also disrupted the work of the United Nations."
Iran has more than $7 billion in assets in two South Korean banks, including Industrial Bank of Korea is Woori Bank, which have been frozen due to harsh and unilateral US sanctions.
 
Iran is demanding the release of its blocked assets, which is a sensitive issue in bilateral relations between Iran and South Korea.
 
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres recently wrote a letter to the President of the UN General Assembly informing him that Iran has lost its right to vote due to the increase in arrears of membership in the United Nations.
 
Under Article 19 of the Charter of the United Nations, the voting rights of a United Nations member state are suspended when the arrears are equal to or greater than the amount due within two years.
