Presstv berbahasa Inggris melaporkan,”
Presiden AS Donald Trump memimpin rapat Dewan Keamanan PBB tentang
non-proliferasi senjata pemusnah massal, satu hari setelah pidatonya yang
menyerang Iran di Majelis Umum PBB, tetapi Trump juga mendapat ejekan karena
menggembar-gemborkan kebijakan domestiknya.
Ini adalah pengalaman pertama Trump
dalam memimpin sesi DK PBB, di mana AS saat ini memegang kepresidenan bergilir.
After
being mocked at UNGA, Trump leads Security Council meeting; Iran on agenda
Earlier
this month, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif slammed Trump for
attempting to hijack the United Nations Security Council meeting to turn it to
an anti-Iran event.
In
a Twitter post on September 5, Zarif said Trump is seeking to “abuse” the
presidency of the Security Council to divert a session, which has been devoted
to Palestine for decades in a bid to blame Iran for horrors the United States
and its clients have unleashed across the Middle East.
Trump
used his address to the 73rd session of the General Assembly on Tuesday to
attack Iran, and promised hard-hitting sanctions against Tehran while urging
the world to isolate the Islamic Republic.
Presiden AS memulai pidatonya dengan
membual tentang prestasi domestiknya sebelum menangani prioritas kebijakan luar
negerinya. Dia membual bahwa pemerintahannya telah mencapai "lebih dari
hampir semua" presiden lain sebelumnya dalam sejarah AS. Ucapan itu
mengundang tawa dari para hadirin para pemimpin dunia.
Ketika dia naik mengambil podium
beberapa jam kemudian, Presiden Iran Hassan Rouhani menanggapi pernyataan
anti-Iran Trump.
Dia menuduh pemerintahan AS saat ini
melanggar aturan hukum internasional dengan menarik diri dari perjanjian nuklir
2015 yang ditandatangani Iran dengan enam kekuatan negara dunia, termasuk AS.
He
also emphasized that the US is pushing other countries to violate the Iran
deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), and that it is
threatening all countries and international organizations with punishment if
they comply with Security Council Resolution 2231, which endorsed the JCPOA.
After
announcing Washington’s withdrawal from the JCPOA, Trump re-imposed the
anti-Iran sanctions which had been lifted under the accord. The Trump
administration has also been seeking to put even more economic pressure on the
Islamic Republic by threatening the European firms doing business with Tehran
with punitive measures.
Rouhani
said in his speech that "unilateral and illegitimate" sanctions
imposed by the US against Iran are tantamount to "economic terrorism"
and are in violation of world nations’ right to progress.
He
further noted that the US policy vis-à-vis the Islamic Republic of Iran has
been wrong since the victory of the Islamic Revolution in 1979.***
