Furthermore, he denounced Western countries for the instrumental use of human rights and international structures related to the field.
For his part, Kanaani underlined the cooperation between BRICS member states against hate-mongering and lies disseminated in the media aimed at distorting the image of the independent countries in the world.
The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson also stressed that the cooperation should be directed at confronting the selective use of human rights and terrorism by some Western countries as tools in order to fulfill their unlawful political objectives.
