President Ahmadinejad at FAO
Posted in Food Crisis, Iran on Jun 4th, 2008
Full text of President Ahmadinejad’s address to the UN Food and Agricultural Organization summit on the food crisis:
“On the one hand, they impose laws like the reduction of the agricultural import tariff on nations in the name of free trade and, on the other hand, they eliminate many weak farmers in other countries by granting subsidies to their own agriculture sectors.
Why do some powers turn the food of the people into object for profiteering and attaining illegal financial sources and keep hundreds of millions of people in poverty? Why do some powers trespass all human boundaries and moral values in order to secure wealth and world domination? Why do they act like this?”
