Iran regains UN vote after US enables UN payment



Iran regained its vote in the UN General Assembly on Friday after the United States enabled Tehran to use funds frozen in South Korea to pay some $16 million it owed to the world body, reports Reuters.

Iran lost its vote in the 193-member General Assembly in January because it was more than two years in arrears. It owed a total of more than $65 million, but paid the minimum amount needed to regain its vote.

"Iran has paid the minimum amount due," UN spokesman Farhan Haq said on Friday, confirming Iran could vote again.

Iran says $20 billion of its oil revenue has been frozen in countries like South Korea, Iraq, and China since 2018 under sanctions imposed by then-US President Donald Trump.

"Illegal US sanctions have not just deprived our people of medicine; they have also prevented Iran from paying our dues in arrears to the UN," Iran's UN Ambassador Majid Takht Ravanchi posted on Twitter. "After more than 6 months of working on it, the UN today announced it has received the funds."

Iran was able to vote in the General Assembly on Friday to elect five new members of the UN Security Council.

Sense. El Trumpo should be in jail.....but then he was only doing Izrael's bidding.

US sanctions are basically a war on the poor, and another reason the world hates us.

The G7 is about to surround China with military might to save the dollar.

Yes- and the Chinese know it can't be done. The insider prediction is a split financial world........ until one side folds.
Rather that than satellite wars.

Anyway- Biden is supporting a democratic UN- unlike the insane El Trumpo.

What will happen to the war on Iran now that Bibi is gone?

His replacements are equally insane Neo-Zionist fascists- but their coalition depends upon a Palestinian/Israeli faction- the Arab List. Anybody's guess.

Maybe they'll continue with snide attacks on Iran under the radar. Zionism depends upon expansion. Peace, to those bastards, is an existential threat.

It should be easier for Biden to make a deal with Iran now that Bibi's gone.

Yes, I hope so....but Bibi is not beyond planning black ops on his own. Hopefully- he'll go to jail.
