America and the West have accepted int’l law in a graded manner: Tehran
Iran’s government spokesman has stated that the United States and the West do not shy away from violating international law by exploiting its powerlessness.
In a post on his social media account on Friday, Ali Bahadori Jahromi wrote that the arbitrary behavior of the Western states has slowed the progress of international law and its influence.
He made the remarks in response to a letter sent by 12 American senators to the International Criminal Court (ICC) and its judges in which they threatened the ICC with strict sanctions if the international body issued arrest warrants for Israeli officials.
The massacre of women and children and attacks on civilians and medical centers and even on the United Nations’ camps over seven months reveal the truth of some Western countries’ attitude towards the issue of human rights and also show the ineffectiveness of the international law in preventing such occurrences, he underlined.
