Iran calls on int’l community to respond to Australia’s violations against human rights

SANAA, Dec. 11 (YPA) – The Iranian Foreign Ministry condemned the Australian government’s measure to ban a number of real and legal persons from Iran.

Spokesman of the Ministry, Nasser Kanaani, described in a statement the Australian’s record in terms of complying with international commitments and combating terrorism and spreading hatred as black.

“Australia’s recent behavior is a clear example of interference in Iran’s internal affairs, as well as incitement to violence and hatred,” the statement said, adding that Australia’s decision against Iran was taken at a time when the Australian government had been violating for many years the basic rights of indigenous people, prisoners and refugees in this country, as well as harboring terrorist and separatist groups hostile to Iran.
