Deputy Foreign Minister for Legal and International Affairs, Kazem Gharibabadi made the remarks during a UN meeting that addressed the issue of international adherence to the world body’s charter at The Hague on Monday.
He called on the Security Council to take “immediate” action towards deploying the punitive measures under Chapter VII of the charter, which obliges action against standing threats to peace.
“All governments should stop short of engaging in any economic, military, and arms cooperation with this regime,” the official asserted.
Gharibabadi strongly criticized the council’s failure in the face of the regime and its atrocities, citing the catastrophic situation across the Palestinian territories, which was worsening every moment.
“The Security Council has, due to the United States unconditioned support for the Israeli regime, failed to stop the Zionist regime’s war machine,” noted the senior diplomat.
“Through its instances of untrammeled support, the US is complicit in the atrocities and, together with the regime [itself], is responsible for its contravention of the international law and the losses of life that it has caused.”
He advised against indefinite self-restraint in the face of the regime’s provocations at a time, when it was expanding its aggression to Lebanon.
Gharibabadi called for re-establishment of the rule of law and administration of justice concerning the regime towards cessation of its genocidal attacks and occupation.
The remarks came amid the regime’s October 2023-present war of genocide on the Gaza Strip and significantly deadly escalation against Lebanon since that date that have respectively claimed the lives of 44,235 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and killed 3,768 people across Lebanon.
