Iran Expelled From UN Women’s Commission | Algemeiner.com
Iran was expelled from the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW), a UN women’s rights subsidiary, on Wednesday after the passage of a US-led resolution in response to Iran’s brutal crackdown on ongoing protests.
Speaking at the UN’s Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), the 54 member body that the CSW is subsidiary to, US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield said that removing Iran was the direct appeal of Iranian women activists. “Iran’s membership at this moment is an ugly stain on the commission’s credibility,” Thomas-Greenfield said.
