Strategic Council Online – Opinion: The last round of indirect negotiations between Hamas officials and the Zionist regime, which was conducted in Cairo with the mediation of Qatar, Egypt, and the United States, was unsuccessful due to the Zionists’ “Obstruction.”
Hamid Khoshayand, an expert on regional issues
Strategic Council Online- Interview: An expert on international issues said that student protests by supporters of Palestine are having a relative effect on the policy of the United States and the West towards the Israeli regime.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on international issues said that the US claims to have suspended sending weapons to the Zionist regime is a political deception to silence public opinion because this would make no difference in the nature of Washington’s support for the Zionist army and the existence of this regime.
Strategic Council Online—Interview: A researcher of Saudi affairs said that US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken arrived in Riyadh recently during a regional trip and had consultations with the Riyadh officials. It seems that one of the items on the agenda between Saudi Arabia and America, in addition to the Gaza war, is the process of normalizing relations between the Israeli regime and the Arab kingdom.
Strategic Council Online – Note: Iran has done more than its share for the nuclear non-proliferation regime.
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.”
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.

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.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: The tragic and criminal incident at the embassy of the Republic of Azerbaijan in Tehran, which based on the explicit confession of the assailant, took place with personal motives, ended with the timely intervention of the police force.
Strategic Council Online—Opinion: Any attempt by Europe to designate the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps–a sovereign body and part of the official defense force of the Islamic Republic of Iran—as a terrorist organization will affect the interests and national security of European countries before it harms the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Hamid Khoshayand—Expert of regional issues
Strategic Council Online-Interview: The scientific deputy of Shahid Sadr Research Institute of the Expediency Council stated that sending the Patriot systems is the beginning of cooperation between the United States and Ukraine at a higher level, adding that this moves aims more to maintain the balance in the war and as long as Russia is involved in the war, the United States can take extensive international measures against it and making any agreement is against the US strategic goal of continuing the war and eroding Russia’s power.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Politics in general, including foreign policy, followed by political action and diplomatic measure, appears natural and is more welcomed when it can emerge from a country’s worldview and its civilizational, historical, moral, religious and political customs. Otherwise, it will not achieve much success. Compliance with the principles may sometimes cause an apparent loss to the holder in the short term, but compliance with the principles will benefit everyone in the long run.

Strategic Council Online—Interview: An expert on East Asian issues believes that China knows that after the realization of US conspiracies against independent, rival and critic countries such as Russia and Iran, Beijing will be the next target of these conspiracies, which will be pursued through any means, even the spread of insecurity and the growth of terrorism.

Currently, 14 seats of the three extreme parties are among Netanyahu’s coalition.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: Senior researcher on Central Asia and Caucasus affairs, saying that approvals of the Armenia-Azerbaijan Boundary Commission should not be a prelude to changing the geographical borders in the region, noted: Iran can assist the peace talks in Karabakh so that by stabilizing borders and establishing calm measures can be taken for the future development of the region.
