Iran’s UN envoy, Amir Saeid Iravani, has sent a letter to the UN secretary-general and the president of the Security Council, strongly protesting the US’s capture of Iranian vessels and describing the acts as “piracy”.
“Reliance on domestic arrangements, which are inherently illegal, can under no circumstances justify such an abhorrent crime committed through the use of force,” he said in the letter, according to the semi-official Tasnim news agency.
“Such behaviour constitutes illegal coercion, interference in lawful international trade, and the unlawful seizure of property. Simultaneously, it sets a dangerous precedent that severely undermines the international rule of law,” Iravani added.
