New York, April 22, IRNA - Iran's Ambassador and Permanent Representative to the United Nations Majid Takht Ravanchi on Wednesday denounced use of force particularly in the pandemic era as violation of the right to live.
Takht Ravanchi called for putting hostility aside immediately.
The ambassador made the remarks at the 54th UN session of the Commission on Population and Development on Wednesday.
Not having access to nutrient foods will have damaging impacts on life and health of women and children, the ambassador added.
If the international community does not take immediate action to end hostility, more hundreds of millions will face poverty and famine, Takht Ravanchi added.
