UN experts welcomed the US-Iran agreement that puts an end to the war in the Middle East, but emphasized that the document ignores the human rights situation in Iran.

Experts from the United Nations (UN) welcomed the agreement signed by American President Donald Trump and his Iranian counterpart Masoud Pezeshkian to end the war in the Middle East, but warned that the document ignores the issue of human rights in Iran. Although the agreement aims to put an end to the conflict that began on February 28 and focuses on military and economic aspects, UN experts believe that it does not provide answers to the suffering of the Iranian population. According to them, the war has had devastating consequences, causing the death of thousands of civilians and the displacement of millions of people. At the same time, Iranian authorities have intensified repression against opponents, and since the beginning of the conflict, at least 156 people have been executed, while thousands have been arrested and subjected to torture. UN experts emphasized that an agreement that excludes the voice of Iranian citizens and does not address violations of fundamental rights cannot be considered a genuine peace agreement.
