America said Iran is a blot on UN Women's Commission
Before voting on the proposal in the Economic and Social Council, US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas said that Iran is a stain on the credibility of the Women's Commission, and it would be right to remove it from the commission. While Iran's ambassador to the UN, Aamir Sayed Irawani, has termed this decision taken under the leadership of America as illegal.
Russia supported Iran
While India abstained from voting on this resolution brought against Iran, Russia has strongly opposed it. The ambassador of Russia also called it illegal. Russia said that before removing Iran from this commission, the opinion of the UN legal expert should have been taken.
