00:00This does not mean that we overlook major environmental challenges such as prolonged period.
00:11Rather, it emphasizes that despite all obstacles and being deprived of technology transfers envisioned in the Convention,
00:22the Islamic Republic of Iran continues its efforts.
00:25Mr. President, the United States, in coordination with its regional proxy, the Zionist regime,
00:34has launched military aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran.
00:40This act not only violates international law and constitutes war crimes,
00:45but has also caused extensive and lasting environmental destruction.
00:50Among the most serious consequences was the release of over 50,000 tons of carbon emissions in Tehran alone.
01:02The reckless attacks on Iran's peaceful nuclear energy facilities represent a blatant and deliberate crime
01:10that could have led to one of the world's largest environmental catastrophes.
01:16This act of aggression is alongside with the two-year genocide and a variety of war crimes committed by this outlaw regime in Gaza.
01:27These crimes were not only a massacre of innocent people, women, and children, but also caused deep environmental damage.
01:37Ladies and gentlemen, the Islamic Republic of Iran, while firmly recognizing the inherent environmental and humanitarian threats,
01:49continues to believe in the power of international cooperation.
01:55Iran stands ready to share its local knowledge and experiences
02:00and to engage constructively with other nations and international institutions in advancing our common environmental goals.
02:13We are heirs to one earth and one destiny.
02:16May we act with respect and justice so that we may pass on a sustainable legacy to future generations.
