In a Wednesday meeting local time in New York, the ECOSOC endorsed Iran’s membership in the Committee for Programme and Coordination (CPC), the Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice (CCPCJ), and the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS).
The CPC is the wing for policymaking in terms of programming and coordination at the United Nations. Iran has been in the charge of decision-making, guidance and consultation concerning issues related to programs and the budget of the UN.
Iran has played an active role in the UNAIDS as well as the CCPCJ. Earlier 54 members from the Asia-Pacific region endorsed Iran’s membership in the three entities.
The membership of the Islamic Republic in the three organizations occurs amid vast efforts by certain Western states, who have been trying to isolate Iran at international circles, but the international community has acknowledged that the country enjoys a special position and they underlined the need for Iran’s activity in the mentioned bodies.
