It happened on Wednesday (November 2) when the anti-Iran show was being held by the United States and its allies; then Ambassador and Permanent Representative of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the UN Amir Saeid Iravani attended a gathering of the correspondents and reporters to elaborate on the Islamic Republic stance.
Iravani’s peace of mind aroused the anger of the BBC Persia’s correspondent who tried to make a scene to steal the spotlight.
The ambassador of the Islamic Republic called on Stéphane Dujarric, the spokesperson for the UN secretary-general, to not let such acts be repeated as they are far from peace and solidarity among the UN members.
After Iran’s call, the UN warned the BBC correspondent against the act.
Despite the efforts made by certain Persian media including BBC Persian and Saudi-led Iran International and the London-based news agency of Reuters to exaggerate the meeting held at the UN, those who held such an informal meeting were unsuccessful in achieving their goals.
The meeting which was held under the “Arria-formula” sessions was not among the activities of the UN Security Council as it is coordinated after a demand from one of the members.
