UN General Assembly
2021

With regard to the rights of diversities, we have made progress on historic measures to expand and recognize rights, such as the adoption of the transvestite-trans labour quota law, which stipulates that the national Government must ensure that a minimum of 1 per cent of its workforce is made up of transvestites, transsexuals and transgender people, and a decree that provides for the issuance of national identity documents that recognize non-binary identities. Let me now turn to the scourge of terrorism. Argentina highlights the efforts of the United Nations Office of Counter- Terrorism to support States in implementing the United Nations Global Counter- Terrorism Strategy, with full respect for international law, international human rights law, international humanitarian law and international refugee law. Twenty-seven years after the attack on the headquarters of the Asociacion Mutual Israelita Argentina, we continue the ongoing policy initiated in that area in 2003 of requesting the authorities of the Islamic Republic of Iran to cooperate with the Argentine judicial authorities in order to move forward with the investigation of the attack.
