UANI Announces Launch of Advertising Campaign Surrounding UNGA


New York, NY - United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) today announced the launch of a street advertising campaign surrounding this year's meeting of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York, NY.

The campaign includes kiosks near the United Nations Headquarters as well as buses in Manhattan. The ads urge the United Nations and all Americans to take action to prevent Iran from continuing to develop nuclear weapons.

Speaking about UANI's ad campaign, UANI President Ambassador Mark D. Wallace said:

The international community has made significant strides over the past year in increasing financial pressure against Iran. The ad campaign serves as a reminder to the UN, international companies and private citizens that while such pressure is paying off, more must be done to economically isolate Iran. Multinational corporations that do business in Iran support a brutal theocratic dictatorship and provide economic support for Iran's illegal nuclear weapons program.

UANI has also called on all New York City Hotels to refuse to host President Ahmadinejad during his visit to New York for UNGA. Last year, President Ahmadinejad was effectively quarantined to the one venue that agreed to accommodate him.

United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) is a program of the American Coalition Against Nuclear Iran, Inc., a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

The prospect of a nuclear-armed Iran should concern every American and be unacceptable to the community of nations. Since 1979 the Iranian regime, most recently under President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's leadership, has demonstrated increasingly threatening behavior and rhetoric toward the US and the West. Iran continues to defy the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and the United Nations in their attempts to monitor its nuclear activities. A number of Arab states have warned that Iran's development of nuclear weapons poses a threat to Middle East stability and could provoke a regional nuclear arms race. In short, the prospect of a nuclear armed Iran is a danger to world peace.

United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) is a non-partisan, broad-based coalition that is united in a commitment to prevent Iran from fulfilling its ambition to become a regional super-power possessing nuclear weapons. UANI is an issue-based coalition in which each coalition member will have its own interests as well as the collective goal of advancing an Iran free of nuclear weapons.


The Objectives of United Against a Nuclear Iran


  1. Inform the public about the nature of the Iranian regime, including its desire and intent to possess nuclear weapons, as well as Iran's role as a state sponsor of global terrorism, and a major violator of human rights at home and abroad;
  2. Heighten awareness nationally and internationally about the danger that a nuclear armed Iran poses to the region and the world;
  3. Mobilize public support, utilize media outreach, and persuade our elected leaders to voice a robust and united American opposition to a nuclear Iran;
  4. Lay the groundwork for effective US policies in coordination with European and other allies;
  5. Persuade the regime in Tehran to desist from its quest for nuclear weapons, while striving not to punish the Iranian people, and;
  6. Promote efforts that focus on vigorous national and international, social, economic, political and diplomatic measures.
UANI is led by an advisory board of outstanding national figures representing all sectors of our country.
