UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres allegedly congratulated Iran’s regime on the anniversary of the Islamic Revolution, according to Iran’s IRNA. He praised the occasion as a chance to reflect on Iran’s contributions to the international community while advocating for global cooperation on peace and human rights. UN Watch has called for transparency regarding the letter and criticized Guterres for congratulating a regime accused of atrocities. They also urged the UN to rescind an invitation for Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi to speak at the Human Rights Council, citing his involvement in crimes against humanity.
