UANI Applauds The Essex House for Rebuffing Ahmadinejad

New York, NY - UANI applauds The Essex House for refusing to host President Ahmadinejad. In discussions with UANI leadership the Essex House has confirmed that it will no longer host President Ahmadinejad.

UANI President Ambassador Mark Wallace said of the Essex House's decision "UANI applauds the Essex House for declining to host President Ahmadinejad and for refusing to provide him with a venue and a platform for spewing hatred.  By choosing not to accommodate President Ahmadinejad, The Essex House joins UANI, GE, The New York Helmsley, and Gotham Hall, and the international community in isolating Iran and its thuggish theocracy.  We thank our supporters for sending a clear message to the Essex House that companies that do business with Iran support a dangerous regime and finance an illegal nuclear weapons program.  We call on other American and international businesses to follow the example of the Essex House."
