Addressing the first International Congress for the Women of Influence in Tehran, Amirabdollahian hailed Jamileh Alamolhoda, the spouse of the Iranian President for initiating the congress which paved the way providing an opportunity for respected ladies from all over the world to share their views.
He added that the Islamic Republic of Iran is working with all its might at the level of the president and foreign ministers to establish peace in Ukraine.
"In the past, some Western politicians tried to expel Iran from the UN Women's Commission despite the important position of women in more than four decades of victory of Islamic Revolution, but depriving Iran of membership in this commission has not and will not have an effect on the special focus of the Islamic Republic of Iran on the promotion of women's status and the more effective role of women in political، social، cultural, scientific , artistic and international activities in Iran," he added.
