Dear Mr Mahbobi

Thank you for your email of 6 July 2021 regarding the president of the Islamic Republic of Iran. I           am replying on behalf of the Minister for Foreign Affairs.

The Australian Government remains deeply concerned by Iran’s troubling human tights record, and we regularly raise these concerns directly with Iran, and in multilateral fora. In addition to delivering national and joint statements expressing concern over specific human rights violations committed by Iran, we routinely co-sponsor the annual UN General Assembly resolution on the situation of human rights in Iran, and UN Human Rights Council (HRC) resolutions on Iran (most recently during the HRC in March 2021).

I trust this information is of assistance.

Yours sincerely

Lara Nassau
