UNITED NATIONS REFORM MUST TAKE DUE ACCOUNT OF DEVELOPING COUNTRIES' CONCERNS, PRIME MINISTER OF MOROCCO TELLS GENERAL ASSEMBLY CORRECTION
19971008In Press Release GA/9311 of 25 September, the fourth and fifth paragraphs on page 12 should read as follows:
JALAL SAMADI (Iran), speaking in exercise of the right to reply, said the comments this morning by the Foreign Minister of the United Arab Emirates were against the territorial integrity of Iran and had no basis in history or law. Iran was fully committed to fulfilling its international obligations, especially the agreement of 1971. Any misunderstandings regarding those obligations should be addressed through the process of dialogue and in the spirit of good neighbourliness. The Iranian Government would take up any misunderstanding over the Island of Abu Musa directly with the Government of the United Arab Emirates.
As the Iranian Foreign Minister had said in his address to the Assembly earlier this week, Iran's message to its neighbours was one of friendliness and fraternity. It welcomed any initiative to strengthen cooperation in the Persian Gulf region.
