Bahrain Mirror: The Representative of Iran to the United Nations, Gholamali Khoshroo, rejected the accusations brought forth by Bahrain against his country during the 70th session of the UN General Assembly, pointing out that these accusations come as a way to cover up the human rights violations of the rights of Bahrain's majority.
He explained that "the charges brought by the Bahraini Foreign Minister against Iran regarding meddling in Bahrain's internal affairs are an attempt to cover up the human rights violations exercised by the ruling family against the majority of Bahrainis," adding that, "as long as this ruling family violates the rights of the majority, any attempts to fabricate allegations of foreign interference will not help find a solution to the problem."
Responding to the statements by the Bahraini and Emirati Foreign Ministers regarding the stances of Iranian officials towards the Mina stampede that left hundreds of Iranian pilgrims dead, Khoshroo said "the disgusting statements of both the Bahraini and Emirati ministers concerning matters that don't concern them and will not help find a solution to the discussed issue," stressing that "Iran is continuously following the approach of enhancing good neighborly relations and dialogue concerning relevant affairs."
