*********** In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful  ******************** Excellency,  I am writing to bring to your attention the unlawful, brazen and reckless armed attack of the Israeli regime against the Islamic Republic of Iran. An armed attack that posed significant, serious and longstanding threat to the Intellectual Property and innovation system. On 13 June 2025, the Israeli regime perpetrated the act of aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran, in a flagrant and grave violation of international law, including the international humanitarian law, international human rights law and charter of United Nations. The series of armed attacks, deliberately targeted the populated cities, residential areas, hospitals and non-military infrastructures, resulting in the losses of hundreds of innocent civilians, including women and children. This heinous and reprehensible act of aggression by the Israeli regime claimed the lives of numerous leading Iranian scientists, innovators and professors, the true creators and holders of intellectual property. These assassinations constitute the violation of international law principle, recognized in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights-which affirm that individuals have the right to participate in and benefit from scientific advancement and the protection of their intellectual creations. Furthermore, the assassinations with malice aforethought, on innovators and scientists as well as destruction of Small and Medium Enterprises’ infrastructures, undermine the ecosystem of innovation and intellectual property and contravenes the WIPO’s goal of fostering robust IP systems to support sustainable development Moreover, on 17 June 2025, the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting, a civilian media institution which is a major Intellectual Property user and prominent institution holding extensive copyright and trademark portfolios, was deliberately targeted. The assault destroyed vital infrastructure, thereby directly impairing the ability to disseminate information and knowledge to the civilian population. This act of aggression by the Israeli regime once again illustrates it’s unlawful and destabilizing conduct, a persistent pattern that poses a serious threat to regional and international peace and security. The Islamic Republic of Iran, while reaffirming its commitment to the Charter of the United Nations and the fundamental principles of international law, emphasizes its inherent right to self-defense, as enshrined in Article 51 of the UN Charter to respond firmly and proportionately to such unlawful and cowardly aggression in order to safeguard its sovereignty and national security. The Islamic Republic of Iran, urges the Director General of the World intellectual property to unequivocally condemn the act of aggression of Israeli regime against Iran, including the deliberate and unlawful armed attack against the Iranian innovators, scientist, SMEs, knowledge based companies’ infrastructure and Iran Broadcasting, the principal and rightful users and holders of intellectual property.  Please accept, Excellency, the assurances of my highest considerations.  ---
