Iran's ambassador and Permanent Representative to the UN Office in Geneva, Mohammed Reza Sajjidi, appealed to the UN High Commissioner on Human Rights, Navi Pillay, to ensure immediate action on the killing of Rohingyas in Myanmar.
According to the Islamic Republic News Agency, writing to Pillay, Sajjidi requested 'immediate and effective action of all relevant international institutions, especially the UN Human Rights Council to stop the genocide' and 'complained that the international organizations have failed so far to fulfill their humanitarian responsibility to stop violence against Muslims in Myanmar despite prior warnings the Islamic Republic of Iran made in separate letters last week to UN Secretary-General.'
