Speaking at a press conference on Monday morning, a senior Iranian diplomat said Switzerland was the four Geneva treaties of 1949, particularly as the administrator and initiator of the International Humanitarian Law Convention.
The initial meeting, scheduled for March 7, aimed to bring together the signatories and adopt a resolution that would strengthen international humanitarian law, particularly in Gaza’s occupied Palestinian territory.
Swiss decision to cancel the meeting was filled with deep regret and surprise, he said, adding that the issue was also raised at the recent Jeddah Summit.
