Council of Nations Strongly Condemns Wazistan
Resolution Sponsored By Hajr - Overwhelming Majority in Support - Ijad Reacts With Hostility
AUGSBURG, Wiese. The General Assembly of the Council of Nations today explicitly condemned the actions of the Wazi state against its own citizens in a resolution sponsored by the Sultanate. An overwhelming majority of fifteen states, opposed by only one no vote (Ratomkira), voted in favor.
Resolution 58/1, which was co-sponsored by a diverse group of states (Anbat, Vangala, the Levant, and Frescania), demands an immediate cessation to hostilities in the country, and calls on the Ijad regime, which has used massive violence to suppress street protests, to work with the international community to find a solution. In addition, the General Assembly expressed its support for the rights of the minorities in Wazistan, and asserted that the violence is driven by the regime's actions.
Abu Hashim Ali ibn Hassan ibn Watban al-Hajri, the ambassador of the Sultanate in the Council of Nations, called the resolution's passing "a victory for human rights and dignity, and a victory for the oppressed peoples of Wazistan," in an interview with Al Watan. "The Ijad regime can no longer commit its crimes under the radar of the international community," he went on to say. "Hajr will continue to push for Security Council action on the matter."
Wazistan itself, meanwhile, has reacted with vitriol, lambasting the resolution as a breach of its sovereignty and a work of a "Hajri-led clique" with a "tight hold on the institutions" of the CON, in the words of the Wazi delegate, Akbar Ali Dubari. "Wazistan ... will not accept this serious violation of its sovereignty. It is clear this one-sided resolution is aimed at undercutting Wazistan's legitimate campaign against terrorism and separatism," Dubari said following Resolution 58/1's passage.
Experts conclude that the immense majority voting for the resolution, coupled with its heterogeneous nature (communist nations voted yes alongside AGE member states and conservative countries), indicates widespread support in the international community for some form of action against the Islamic Republic.
