US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is expressing support for the protesters rallying in Iran. She's also warning against the use of violence by government security forces.
Hillary Clinton, US Secretary of State, said, "We are against violence, and we would call to account the Iranian government that is, once again, using its security forces, and resorting to violence, to prevent the free expression of ideas from their own people. Secondly, we support the universal human rights of the Iranian people. And thirdly, we think that that there needs to be a commitment to open up the political system in Iran, to hear the voices of the opposition and civil society."
