Kuwait has expressed hope, before the United Nations Human Rights, Monday that brining together international efforts would enable the Iraqi authorities to confront the ISIL militant group, as a joint response against terrorism.
Kuwait's permanent delegate to the UN Ambassador Jamal Al-Ghunaim said that "these efforts should stand in the face of terrorists who wreak havoc in the already deteriorating situation in Iraq to stir up sectarian strife in order to eat away the fabric of Iraqi society." Al-Ghunaim made this remark at the 22nd special session of the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) that tackled the situation of human rights in Iraq in the light of violations carried out by ISIL and its affiliates.
The Kuwaiti diplomat affirmed Kuwait's support to all efforts made by the international community to combat terrorism in all its forms. "Turning a blind eye to terrorism could be serious and catastrophic for all countries, regionally and internationally." He stressed that Kuwait strongly condemns "all acts of terrorism in Iraq and violations that affect the Iraqi people which led them to flee their homes by the thousands." Al-Ghunaim called on all countries to implement UN Security Council Resolution no. 2170 on imposing sanctions on ISIS. (end) ta.nfm
