Iranian protesters chant slogans at a rally in Tehran Iran Saturday Dec. 30 2017
UNSC member France declared that the ongoing Iran demonstrations were not an issue for which the global body required emergency meetings.
Iranian Ambassador to the UN Gholamali Khoshroo asserted that the administration of US President Donald Trump - in the form of its current and widely-criticized ambassador Nikki Haley - was abusing its position as a permanent UNSC member in demanding the emergency meeting. They are calling out, Think of us. The Iranian regime is now on notice.
The UN Security Council held an emergency meeting at the request of the United States on Friday to discuss the anti-government protests that rocked Iran last week.
"Today the people of Iran are speaking to their government and their message is undeniable", Haley said.
Khatami says that "the nation does not support a social network that has its key in the hands of the United States".
News posted a clip on Twitter of Haley telling Iran that the United States "stands unapologetically with those in Iran who seek freedom for themselves".

Golden Globes: Saoirse Ronan to wear black
Saoirse Ronan has won the Golden Globe for Best Actress - Musical or Comedy for her role in Lady Bird and she looked stunning on the night as she collected the accolade.
They added that "the government's instruction to the Revolutionary Guard to hit hard against the protesters, and the judiciary's threats of harsh punishment, are unacceptable".
"However worrying the events of the last few days in Iran may be they do not constitute per se a threat to worldwide peace and security", French Ambassador to the UN Francois Delattre said, cited by Reuters. No dishonest attempt to call the protestors, puppets of foreign powers, will change that. Foreign financial institutions that knowingly facilitate significant transactions for, or persons that provide material or certain other support to, the designated entities risk exposure to sanctions that could sever their access to the US financial system or block their property and property interests under USA jurisdiction.
Briefing the Security Council, Taye-Brook Zerihoun, Assistant United Nations Secretary-General for Political Affairs, said the demonstrations taking place in Iran were a fundamental expression of human rights, and a powerful exhibition of fearless people who were so fed up with their oppressive regime that they were willing to risk their lives in protest.
A UN Security Council meeting convened by the USA over the unending violent protests in Iran has been ferociously criticised by Russian Federation.
Khoshoroo alleged that the USA has a long history of intervening in the internal affairs of Iran, including a continuous pattern of disruption in the democratisation process in Iran.
