Qatar then responded to Saudi Arabia on its second intervention ( in Arabic ) in saying " when in June 2017 Saudi Arabia tried to make an act of aggression through its embargo against the sovereignty and is rejected by international law . Qatar suffered from a mendacious approach . One can see this through Saudi media on this accusation . It is bizarre that this mendacious accusation is at UNGA where one should discuss how to strengthen international relations between countries . We reject the comments by by The Saudi delegation and insist Qatar will do its best to prosper ... while protecting human rights . It is best to build stability and fight terrorism in our region . President , I will not be able to speak again since this is the second right to reply in General Assembly procedures . We reserve the right to respond to accusations in writing and have it in the minutes of the meetings . " Qatar responded ( in Arabic ) to the " false accusations mentioned in the statements of the U.A.E. and Bahrain . Mister chairman … we have developed consensus that Qatar is innocent of the accusations targeted at it . In fact , we are active in promoting peace ... These fake accusation have never been substantiated by any credible international party ... and , thus , they violate international human rights law . What the cause of suspicion is that we find these states throw allegations and do not practice what they preach , they do not practice sovereignty and interfere in the sovereignty of other states . They do not respect human rights ... they financed an unsuccessful coup attempt in Qatar , they then implemented a blockade on Qatar . They continue to lie and lie until people are expected to believe them , all the while using modern technology in such attempts . The U.A.E. has ... to finance greatest acts of terrorist in modern days and it allows perpetrators to escape through its territory . While states pretend to combat terrorism , everyone knows terror is launched from these countries ... It is regrettable that this has reached this level of conspiracies . It is regrettable Bahrain ... represents a real crisis with in its lines of leadership in Bahrain . Instead of solving internal issues it prefers fabrications ... and holding conferences and presenting misleading discourse . Results are never in Bahrain 's favour thus it is necessary to exercise this Right of Reply . The situation in Bahrain does not allow them to speak of human rights . Bahrain should comit to international conventions and respect human rights ... it should also know that solving domestic issues will not be attained by false allegation . Bahrain should best apply solutions that do not seek to marginalize its own citizen instead of unilateral measures that are illegal y taken by Bahrain against my country ... It would be better to achieve prosperity and combat terrorism . Mister chairman , ... it is no longer a secret U.A.E. is irresponsible in its behaviour in other regions . It is attempting to destabilise regional bodies like the GCC . It is disrespecting international law and the principle of good neighbourliness . The U.A.E. evade d implementation of Security Council resolutions . It has become widely known U.A.E. relies on mercenary , mercenary companies in the region . It uses espionage ... against regional countries ... As a result of the U.A.E. 's record in the region and on the international stage ... any sane person knows the U.A.E. ignores international conventions and destablises the Middle East and Africa and beyond . It has become the leading party to destabilise and to destroy . The U.A.E. punishes freedom of expression with 15 years of prison . In Yemen , ... there have been crimes against humanity by the U.A.E . Last July the International Court of Justice issued a verdict against the U.A.E. because of its discrimination to wards Qatari nationals and in regards to the Convention to Combat all Forms of Racial Discrimination . The U.A.E. promised it would be reuniting families ; offering opportunities to Qatari students affected by the U.A.E. 's policies in order to resume their studies in the U.A.E. ; and 3 . allowing Qatari nationals to have access to the U.A.E. courts . Mister chairman , this decision by the International Court of Justice is the best evidence against the U.A.E. and reveals its role in the fabricated crisis against Qatar .... I wonder how has the U.A.E. respects human rights in the body it has been appointed to . " India responded to Pakistan in saying : " Mister President , my delegation came to this august assembly to listen to the new foreign minister of Pakistan ... what we heard is a new Pakistan cast in the mold of the old Pakistan . Mister president , I take the floor to reply and reject the baseless allegations of Pakistan . Amongst the most outrageous was ... on the attack at the Peshawar school four years ago . Let me recollect , there was an outpouring of pain in India following the massacre . Both houses of India 's parliament expressed solidarity and memory to those killed . Schools all over India held two minutes of silence in memory . Their comments are a despicable claim to the memory of those killed ... Pakistan has created attempts to destabilise neighbours ... let me make clear Jammu and Kashmir will remain an integral part of India . Mister president , we have heard Pakistan has turned the tide on terrorism . Let us fact check them . Can Pakistan deny it is the host of several terrorist groups , including 22 sanctioned by the UN sanctions regime as of today ? Will Pakistan deny that the UN designated terrorist Hafiz Saeed has a free run and sets up candidates for office ? We have noticed effort by Pakistan to champion human rights . This is verbal ... a Princeton professor ... appointed to a national committee in the country has his removal on the grounds he belongs to a minority . Before preaching to the world , preaching human rights should begin at home ... Mister president , the new foreign minister of Pakistan chose to term the gruesome killings of our security personnel ... on flimsy grounds . In India every life counts ... To conclude , mister president , what we have heard is fake ... Pakistan must demonstrate it has moved beyond deceit and distortion . " Speaking in Arabic in response to Qatar , the United Arab Emirates " wish ed to exercise our Right to Reply on the allegations and false representations of Qatar . It is deplorable Qatar , as usual , adopted political maneuvers to exacerbate tense relations ... instead of focusing on illegal attitudes which should be redressed ... Qatar international ises dimensions to the crisis by falsifying discussion s on the legal measures taken by the U.A.E. in co-operation with Bahrain , Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Egypt against Qatar . Qatar is trying to disseminate false notions taken by our countries . It has had destabilising attitudes for decades . Qatar interfered in other Arab states and promotes extremist ideologies ... it finance terrorist groups ... in flagrant violations of international law and multilateral agreements . It is also a severe threat to our countries and others around the world . The measures we took are targeted measures against the illegal measures by the Qatari regime . The U.A.E. fully respects the people of Qatar . In this vein , the U.A.E. ha s implemented measures for most of the people of Qatar not to be affected by these measures against the regime . Therefore the allegations made by Qatar are false . " Bahrain also responded with a similar rebuttal as the U.A.E. while adding the " maritime and air corridor is open . So this contradicts the statements of Qatar . An emergency air corridor for passengers is also open ... Qatar must adhere to the Riyadh declaration in 2014 and supplementary conventions in 2014 . " Pakistan responded to India 's reply in calling it a " diatribe " and a " homily by a pontiff " while comparing it to the RSS . He then called upon examples of human rights violations in Kashmir by Indian security personnel such as tying a man to a car and using him as human shield against stone throwers and running a person over by a Jeep . He continued in saying India is a country " where unabashed Hindu Yogi Adityanath serves as chief minister of Uttar Pradesh … where in Assam migrants are called ' termites ' ... where liberal India today has no room for dissent ... India continues to face over 70 domestic insurgencies . As for Jammu and Kashmir , I would urge the representative to look beyond obfuscation and denial to answer simple questions ... Kashmir is an international dispute by the numbers of UN resolutions , can India deny not using a plebiscite for the wishes of the Kashmir I people ? Can India deny killings in Kashmir which are well document by international media and organisations ? ... Can India deny using indiscriminate ? ... The true face of India in Kashmir shown again ... speaks of a litany of human rights violations … It is better for the truth by facing up to it . The truth is Jammu and Kashmir is not a part of India . It never was and never will be . This reality has no expire date ... mister president , India can hide behind semantics , it can regurgitate comments against Pakistan but it can not hide ... it can hide voices but it can not suppress what the international community has articulated by human rights commissions . The dead of Jammu and Kashmir tell of a different face . It is time for India to abandon double speak ... Phony bravado can win an election but not credibility . " Qatar used its second reply ( in Arabic ) in saying that what has been " heard from the U.A.E. and Bahrain are baseless and sought to distort the image of Qatar and aim to undermine Qatar 's international relations ... Our response since the blockade has been one of a period of dialogue ... We have been empowering youth and women and other initiatives ... So as not to impede efforts by the international community , therefore we have exercise d self restraint ... The U.A.E. and Bahrain continue to destabilise and violate human rights . Their delegations fail ed to produce evidence despite calls to do so . This proves the allegations are baseless and the measures taken are an embodiment of their failures to adapt to opinion . It also proves the approach is one of force . Mister chairman , it has become eviden t that attempts by the regimes in Abu Dhabi and Bahrain against my country are evidence of policies seek ing to justify unilateral measures that included digital piracy that have targeted credible entities and represent flagrant violations of international law and to combat cyber crime . Mister chairman , since I can not ask for the floor again to respond to further statements , my state reserves the right to respond in writing and have it placed on record . " The U.A.E. used its second reply in saying ( in Arabic ) : " Mister president , I am obliged to respond to allegations of the representative of Qatar ... We said multiple times allegations linked to piracy and false announcements by Qatar are complete ly erroneous allegations . All four countries refused to participate in the plot of digital piracy . We all on the regime of Qatar to stray attention from the issue we are focusing on and to stop supporting terrorism in the world . Qatar spreads false allegations that piracy led to the diplomatic crisis as if no other actions were contributing to this crisis . The region is in a phase of unprecedented turbulence and Qatar is trying to make the most of the instability by promoting terrorism . We have already clarified what we did with the Kingdom of Bahrain and Egypt . We have discussed the reality of the crisis with Qatar . We wish to reaffirm that the U.A.E. is playing a role which we are all aware of even if Qatar pays no attention to it . We are the forefront of the clashes the region faces , including by the attitude of Qatar .
