Censorship, blatant falsification and distortion of statements made by and attributed to the meeting\u2019s participants, including the UN Secretary General (UNSG) and Egyptian President, is an unprecedented deceit\u00a0 by the mullahs\u2019 regime\u2019s which should be strongly condemned by international community.<\/p>\n
Translation of speeches were completely controlled and done by members of\u00a0 state security and repression apparatus. Portions of speeches that somehow were opposing the regime’s policies\u00a0 were entirely omitted and replaced by totally different statements. In some cases several paragraphs of fabricated statements in support of regime\u2019s policies were added to the speech. Furthermore, by inserting or omitting words throughout a large part of the speech, it was rendered devoid of the stated meaning. The original UNSG speech is enclosed.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
1- The following phrases were either added to UNSG speech or the translations were completely different:
\u2022\u00a0I ask the Islamic Republic of Iran to continue, as it has been in the past, to be transparent in its actions specially on the nuclear issue and to take actions in building ever more trust towards attaining its goals for having peaceful nuclear energy. I have to also point out that the cooperation of the Islamic Republic of Iran with the IAEA has been constructive, helpful and positive.
\u2022\u00a0Please recall that the Islamic Republic of Iran as\u00a0\u00a0 a member of the United Nations and a member of the IAEA\u00a0 has taken\u00a0 positive steps in regards to peaceful nuclear energy as wel as through not having any unconventional weapons.
\u2022\u00a0I believe we could have created better solutions and in this case I believe that the Syrian government should adhere to certain principles that keep it clear of many issues so as not to give any excuses to some countries.<\/p>\n
2- These parts of UNSG\u2019s speech were completely deleted in translating to Farsi:
\u2022\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 as I have repeatedly stated around the world \u2014 I strongly reject threats by any Member State to destroy another, or outrageous attempts to deny historical facts, such as the Holocaust. Claiming that another United Nations Member State, Israel, does not have the right to exist, or describing it in racist terms, is not only utterly wrong, but undermines the very principles we have all pledged to uphold
\u2022\u00a0But prevention starts at home \u2014 by strengthening democratic institutions, safeguarding human rights, ensuring popular participation and guaranteeing the rule of law.
\u2022\u00a0Syria is only the latest example of what happens when that truth is ignored. The crisis in Syria started with peaceful demonstrations that were met by ruthless force. Now we face the grim risk of long-term civil war destroying Syria\u2019s rich tapestry of communities. Those who provide arms to either side in Syria are contributing to the misery. Further militarization is not the answer. The situation cannot be resolved with the blood and the bodies of more than 18,000 people and counting. There should be no more bullets and bombs. I urge all parties, in the strongest possible terms, to stop the violence now. The Syrian Government has the primary responsibility to resolve this crisis by genuinely listening to the people\u2019s voices.
\u2022\u00a0Our diplomatic efforts will be led by the Joint Special Representative of the United Nations and the League of Arab States, Lakhdar Brahimi. He will need the united support of the international community. And all who have influence must be part of the solution to this crisis and work in close cooperation with the Joint Special Representative.
\u2022\u00a0Let me also note that efforts to create a Middle East zone free of nuclear weapons and all other weapons of mass destruction are under way. Let us remember that it was Iran itself, 38 years ago, that proposed the establishment of a nuclear-weapon-free zone in the Middle East. As Secretary-General, I am absolutely committed to achieving a world free of nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction. I also share your desire to strengthen controls against the illicit arms trade. Let us keep working for these common goals.<\/p>\n
3- Examples of parts of speeches that were omitted or distorted in favor of Mullah’s
UNSG:
\u201cWe see far too many political disputes within and between states in the Non-Aligned Movement. I am concerned, for example, with the failure of Sudan and South Sudan to finalize their borders and prevent further bloodshed.\u201d
Regime\u2019s translation in Farsi:\u00a0
As an example I point to Sudan and North Sudan. The United Nations worked very hard to make sure that despite the breaking up of Southern Sudan from Northern Soudan there was no bloodshed. This created a suitable situation in Sudan.
Also the speech by Egyptian President Muhammad Morsi did not escape the sharp blade of Iranian regime\u2019s censorship.
State-run Baztab website wrote on August 30: \u201cAt the beginning of Morsi\u2019s speech, the state television interpreter changed Morsi\u2019s statements through replacing Syria by Bahrain while Morsi did not talk about Bahrain.\u201d
Meanwhile, as the Egyptian President who criticized “the despotic Syrian regime” and stressed on the need for “fully supporting the people’s movement” the state-run news agency Mehr, affiliated to the regime Ministry of Information and Security, quoted him as saying : \u201cAt the 16th meeting of the Non-Aligned countries in Tehran, the Egyptian President pointed out the plots against Syria and stressed that \u2018we must be hopeful that the popular ruling regime will remain in power and we must do our utmost efforts in order to make reform in Syria a reality. This is our duty and our line and strategy.’ \u201d<\/p>\n
