Thank you, Mr. President,

The Islamic Republic of Iran warmly welcomes the high level delegation of Kyrgyzstan headed by Minister of Justice and thanks them for their presentation.

Iran commends consideration of human rights values and principles in new version of the Kyrgyzstan constitution and National Development Programme especially adoption of the Human Rights Action Plan for the period 2022–2024.

In the spirit of constructive engagement, we recommend Kyrgyzstan to:

One, strengthen the position of Presidential Commissioner for Children’s Rights to facilitate the full realization of rights of the child in accordance with the national frameworks,

Two, fully implement previously carried out initiatives to promote a unified society and prioritize national values, cultural and social heritages in this process;

and Three, apply supervision on through accomplishment of the The Education Development Programme for the period 2021–2040 and related action plan to ensure realization of this right for all, especially in rural areas.

The Islamic Republic of Iran wishes Kyrgyzstan very success in the Universal Periodic Review.
