🇮🇷🇺🇸 Asked about a UN finding that Iran committed crimes against humanity against its own people, Iran's president claims Washington paid for it Asked whether he accepts the UN findings that American strikes hit the Minab girls school and that Iran committed crimes against humanity against its own protesters, Pezeshkian answered only the second half: "More than five hundred security and military forces had a demonstration. Apparently, they say it was a simple demonstration. In what demonstration 500 and military forces get murdered? They were attempting a coup." Calling protesters armed coup plotters is how every government in history has justified shooting its own citizens, and Tehran has since executed people from those demonstrations.
