President may visit Russia in June: Qashqavi
Tehran, May 25, IRNA – Foreign Ministry spokesman Hassan Qashqavi announced on Monday that President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is probably to visit Russia in June.
He added that Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has invited his Iranian counterpart to attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit to be held in Yekaterinburg, Russia, on June 15-16.
Russia, China, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan are the SCO member states while Iran, India and Mongolia are the observer countries.
On the recent remarks made by Secretary-General of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu on settlement of the existing dispute between Iran and the UAE on the three Persian Gulf islands through his organization, Qashqavi said the dispute is only on the island of Abu Musa and not the three islands.
“The issue can be settled by the two sides and there is no need for involvement of any other country or organization,” the spokesman reiterated.
Criticizing the continued siege of the Gaza Strip by the Zionist regime, he regretted the inaction of regional states towards the issue.
Gaza is a prison with 1.5 million inmates established through West’s support for the Zionist regime, he said, expressing concern over the critical condition of the oppressed people in the city.
Underlining the need for efforts by human rights organizations to help resolve the issue, Qashqavi stressed that cooperation between the Islamic Republic and Muslim countries would help lift the siege on the city.

rchbishop Desmond Tutu has delivered a scathing report to the UN Human Rights Commission on Israel's shelling of Beit Hanoun in Gaza in 2006.
The report, leaked on Monday, says the shelling may have been a war crime.
It criticises an Israeli inquiry that concluded that the shelling was due to a flawed artillery system.
The Archbishop also criticised the international community for "failing to fulfil its role in respect of the suffering of the people of Gaza".
"It is the silence of the international community in the face of what is happening there which most offends. This silence begets complicity," he said.
The right to life has been violated not just through the killings, but also through the lack of an adequate investigation of the killings
Archbishop Desmond Tutu
He expanded on this in comments to journalists.
"I think the West, quite rightly, is feeling contrite, penitent for its awful connivance with the Holocaust," Archbishop Tutu said.
"The West is penitent, the penance is being paid by the Palestinians."
Nineteen Palestinian civilians were killed in the shelling.
The Israeli military was at the time trying to prevent rocket attacks by Palestinian militants.
'Report inappropriate'
Archbishop Tutu's report said that the "Israeli response of a largely secret internal military investigation is absolutely unacceptable from both legal and moral points of view".
The mission appears to have legitimised the iron fisted control of the Hamas terrorist organisation holds over the Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip
Aharon Leshno-Yaar
Israeli ambassador
"In the absence of a well-founded explanation from the Israeli military - who is in sole possession of the relevant facts - the mission must conclude that there is a possibility that the shelling of Beit Hanoun constituted a war crime," his report said.
The Israeli delegate at the Human Rights Council, Aharon Leshno-Yaar, rejected the conclusions of the inquiry.
"The mission appears to have legitimised the iron-fisted control of the Hamas terrorist organisation over the Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip. It is not clear to me whether such action is appropriate by a representative from the Quartet," he said.
International justice
The Palestinian ambassador to the UN, Mohammad Abu-Koash, said: "The Israeli shelling of civilians in Beit Hanoun, while asleep in their homes, and targeting those fleeing, is a war crime, and it's perpetrators must be brought before international justice."
Archbishop Tutu appealed to the UN Human Rights Council to show the same concern for protecting Israelis from Palestinian attacks as it does for Palestinian suffering under Israeli occupation.
The council has been widely criticised for its frequent and heavy criticism of Israel while appearing to soft-pedal on human rights violations elsewhere in the world.
He said Hamas also had an obligation under international law to stop the firing of rockets into Israel.
