Dr. Kharrazi's response to the new US position on Iran's nuclear program:
It Was America That Abandoned Nuclear Diplomacy/ Iran Also Considers Diplomacy the Best Approach
Strategic Council Online: The President of the Strategic Council on Foreign Relations stated: “The US State Department spokesperson, after my interview with Al Jazeera, reiterated their past remarks, stating that they won’t allow Iran to build nuclear weapons, but ultimately said diplomacy is the best approach. Yes, we too prefer diplomacy since based on the Fatwa of our Supreme Leader are not for nuclear weapons; rather, we are advocates of diplomacy to make the Middle East a nuclear-free region. But, in case the Israeli regime threatens us with nuclear weapons, we surely cannot sit idle and wait for permission from others.”
Europe’s Confusion in Securing Bab al-Mandab Strait and the Red Sea
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: The strategic Strait of Bab al-Mandab and the Red Sea have recently faced serious problems and crises due to the Gaza war. This is because of the protectionist approach of the Yemeni army forces toward Palestine, which, since the beginning of the Israeli regime’s attacks on the Gaza Strip, has included attacks on ships bound for or from the origin of the regime in the Red Sea.
They said they will continue their attacks until the Israeli regime’s military aggression in the Gaza Strip ends. The United States, as the most important supporter of the Israeli regime, was the first country to respond to this policy of Yemeni army forces and tried to form a global coalition to counter these attacks under the cover of supporting freedom of navigation, which, of course, failed because of conflicts of interests of Western countries and ended in the actions of the US and British attacks on positions in Yemen. Of course, although European countries were not seriously involved in the American coalition, they have numerous and complex interests in this inflammatory, and as a result, have adopted a particular and independent approach.

The prospect of Possible Departure of Hamas Political Office from Qatar
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on regional issues said Qatari authorities will definitely resist Western pressure to expel Hamas leaders from their territory, and probably the United States will not move towards a zero-hundred equation in this regard because if the Hamas leaders remain in Qatar, which is an ally of the United States, is better than moving to a country outside the power of the United States to exert pressure.
Messages and Consequences of Student Protests in the United States
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Student protests in America take on new dimensions every day.
Because the university enjoys higher public trust and social capital than other civil and social institutions and is, therefore, more effective, the current protests put the U.S. government in a “difficult situation” that is clear in the statements of current and former U.S. officials.

Strategic Council Online—Interview: An expert on strategic issues said: The US Navy has put a project on the agenda to convert surplus oil platforms into mobile missile defense bases in the Pacific Ocean and face China’s threats. These platforms are supposed to be deployed in response to China’s growing missile threats in the Pacific region. Platforms converted into missile defense bases are expected to play an important role in increasing US air defense capabilities and assisting in the country’s strike missions.

Behind the scenes of the Zionist regime’s attacks on Syria
Strategic Council Online—Opinion: Repeated missile attacks on Syria can have several goals, including maintaining the atmosphere of tension, measuring Syrian air defense systems and radars, supporting terrorists, etc., but the coincidence of these attacks with the internal crisis of the Zionist regime strengthens this hypothesis and proves that this regime has resorted to the policy of “exporting a severe internal crisis.”

Fields of Cooperation between Iran and Saudi
Strategic Council Online – Guest Opinion: The normalization of relations between Tehran and Riyadh, despite several decades of tension in Iran-Saudi Arabia relations, has created new speculations about the prospects of ties between the two countries. Despite many controversial cases between Iran and Saudi Arabia, there are many fears and hopes about the results of the resumption of relations between Tehran and Riyadh and its effects and regional consequences. Still, with the current conditions, it seems that the drivers are effective in improving the atmosphere of cooperation between Iran and Saudi Arabia, and solving regional issues is stronger than the challenges and doubts in this regard.

Strategic Consequences of Improved Ties with the Saudis

An analysis of the countermeasures of the Zionist regime against Moscow in approving the transfer of anti-drone systems to Ukraine
Strategic Council Online—Opinion: Relations between Russia and the Zionist regime have always accompanied many ups and downs. In some cases, cooperation and coordination and some cases, conflict and disagreement have defined the relations of the parties. This situation became more evident after the Ukrainian War. Although Tel Aviv tried to show some neutrality towards the war in Ukraine from the beginning, the talks of its military aid to Ukraine led to a wave of differences between Tel Aviv and Moscow.

Future of the presence of US forces in Iraq
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on West Asia affairs called the central message of the US defense secretary’s visit to Baghdad as the declaration of their desire to maintain the presence of their troops in Iraq and stressed: The United States still wants and insists that its forces remain in Iraq. Even though it declared policy, Iraq’s prime minister stated that Baghdad needed no presence of foreign troops, and this policy would only stay at the announcement level.
The continuation of the US military presence in Iraq and its consequences
Strategic Council Online-Interview: An Iraqi affairs expert emphasized that the US wants to maintain a military presence in Iraq and the region, adding that the US presence has no consequences other than insecurity in the region and an impact on the independence of decision-making in the governments that host them.
