Iran, Nirenstein: useless discussion with the Iranian authorities must talk to the opposition
Speaking in Parliament, Hon. Fiamma Nirenstein (PDL), Vice-Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee dela said:
"In the face of recent events going on in the streets in Iran, where Iranian people once again demonstrates his deep antagonism toward a government that violates all human rights, before the violence of the Iranian security forces, faced with the disturbing images, all newspapers today, the Iranian parliament that calls for the hanging of the opposition leader, in my role as Vice-President of the Foreign Affairs Committee I will announce tomorrow that will not take part in the Commission meeting with a delegation of Iranian parliamentarians.
I do not think it is useful to the discussion with official representatives of Iran. I think it is useful instead to express solidarity and to meet his objections. In fact, talking with the Iranian authorities on issues relating to human rights, or to nuclear facilities, it did not do anything so far. Iran is very determined so far in his choice of aggressive imperialist and anti-Semitic, as demonstrated by the latest statements by Ahmadinejad's incitement to murder. But the opposition has continued, pending a ruthless crackdown, to express the desire for freedom and peace, which deserves all our support. "
