Germany: Islamic Republic should be excluded from UN human rights body
Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010It seems Germany is finally matching it’s words with deeds.
Previously we saw a lot of lip service being paid to “defence of human rights” all the while German firms were signing mutli-million or multi-billion dollar contracts.
Siemens, Munich Re and Allianz, all German companies that are all pulling out of Iran.
Now, Germany’s foreign minister, Guido Westerwelle says that the Islamic Republic should be prevented from being able to join the UN human rights body. Mr. Westerwelle goes on to say that the theocracy does not deserve to part of the UN body as it has “violated many of its citizens’ human rights”.
