"We have come to the United Nations to fast and hold a vigil to mark the 10th anniversary of the imposition of sanctions on Iraq." said Lisa Gaze, a member of Chicago-based Voices in the Wilderness. She was sitting in a tent set up in front of Baghdad's al-Canal Hotel, which houses six UN offices. The group plans to remain there during the fast, which ends on Tuesday night. "We have chosen the United Nations because it is the body that imposes sanctions on Iraq and we recognize that it is the United States working through the United Nations and it is the main opponent of lifting sanctions," Gaze said.</span></p><p class="ql-block"><span style="color: rgb(237, 35, 8);">答案：BC</span></p>
