Secretary of Iran’s High Council for Human Rights Kazem Gharibabadi said that the upcoming visit of Alena Douhan, the United Nations (UN) Special Rapporteur on the negative impact of unilateral coercive measures on the enjoyment of human rights, is a chance for her to get familiarized with destructive impacts of the sanctions on the Iranian people.
Ms Douhan will visit Iran as of May 8 for 11 days, Gharibabadi said according to the Thursday report of the High Council for Human Rights office in Tehran.
As the official noted, the visit will take place by the request of the UN Special Rapporteur, which was accepted by Iran.
Her main mission is to review negative impact of unilateral coercive measures on the enjoyment of human rights in Iran, he added.
The UN Special Rapporteur will have several meetings with Iranian officials at state or private sectors, Gharibabadi announced, adding that she is also planned to visit some centers.
