According to a statement, Golriz Ghahreman, an Iranian-born New Zealander parliamentarian, created tension and prevented Iran’s Ambassador to New Zealand Reza Nazar-Ahari from ensuring transparency; however, her move was not welcomed at the session.
Although Ghahreman was unsuccessful in proceeding with her move, she released a film and described herself as the winner of the session, the statement added.
Despite Nazar-Ahari’s goodwill and constructive initiative, Ghahreman displayed such behavior, according to the statement.
On August 3, Nazar-Ahari attended a session of the New Zealand parliament at an official invitation to express the Islamic Republic’s attitudes about some issues. The majority of the New Zealander lawmakers welcomed his participation.
During the session, Ghahreman asked the Iranian ambassador if it was legal in Iran to kill a woman for showing her hair. The ambassador answered “No” and added that the Islamic Republic has ordered the formation of a committee to investigate the case of Mahsa Amini whose death led to unrest in Iran.
The ambassador replied that Ghahreman’s words reminded him exactly of the words of the MKO, the people who have killed 13,000 Iranians and fled to Iraq to stand by Saddam Hussein in his fight against Iran. Based on the embassy’s statement, respect for laws and norms of participation in such sessions is the sole way to reach a true understanding of the developments.
