Solution to Get Out of FATF Blacklist and Get Rid of Its Heavy Costs?

2024/03/04

Strategic Council Online – Opinion: The Financial Action Task Force, FATF, announced on Friday, February 23, that the name of the Islamic Republic of Iran remains on the “blacklist” of this international organization. A decision that was not unexpected for the authorities of our country. According to the Governor of the Central Bank of Iran, one day before the release of the FATF statement, due to the current sanctions, Iran is looking for its own FATF, as it uses other tools instead of SWIFT (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications). On this basis, it seems that while the United Arab Emirates and Lebanon were removed from the “Grey List” of FATF in the previous reviews in June 2024, the Islamic Republic of Iran is not trying to be exempted from the blacklist. But what kind of organization is FATF, and why are some in Iran against joining it? And what is the way out of this situation?

2023/10/11

Responsibility of Aggressor Countries Invading Yemen Before Millions of Children at Risk of Starvation

2023/08/15

Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Eight years after military aggression and civil war in Yemen, 22 million Yemeni people, equivalent to two-thirds of the country’s population, live with humanitarian aid. The extent of the suffering of Yemeni children due to the deterioration of livelihood and health conditions after years of siege and war in that country is indicative of a humanitarian disaster in Yemen. The catastrophic situation of Yemeni children requires increased efforts to provide emergency aid to deal with such a crisis and save the lives of millions of children. International organizations have announced that 11 million Yemeni children need immediate support and aid, and more than 2 million suffer from severe malnutrition. Children are the biggest victims of such a dire situation, which in those few years have been dealing with death, hunger, displacement, physical disabilities, health problems and diseases caused by lack of food or unhealthy nutrition, lack of medical system, unsafe water, and bad economic condition.
