Dr Kharrazi Meets Former French FM
Trump Strategy: Split up Europe, Exterminate JCPOA

2019/05/12 | Council, News

Strategic Council Online: President of the Strategic Council on Foreign Relations Dr Kamal Kharrazi says the incumbent US president's strategy is to cause a rift in Europe and prevent its cohesion on the one hand and exterminate the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) on the other.

Dr Kharrazi met with former French Foreign Minister Hervé De Charette in Paris Saturday and discussed the developments in the region, Iran-France relations and the Iran Nuclear Agreement.

Referring to the role of the United States in creating crises and tensions in the region, Europe and the world, Dr Kharrazi stated: “The incumbent US president’s strategy is to cause a rift in Europe and prevent its cohesion on the one hand and exterminate the JCPOA on the other.”

He added that at the regional level too, Trump while supporting the Zionist regime with an aim of completing the occupation of Palestine is trying to extort certain subservient Arab regimes by humiliating them and spreading Iranophobia.

De Charette also underlined the importance of European independence and coherence and stated: “Using the power of the USD as a tool to punish other countries is unacceptable.”

He noted that Iran plays a very important role in the region, and the dialogue and deepening of relations between Tehran and Paris is important for the development of peace and security in the region.

On Iran’s Nuclear Agreement, De Charette said the deal between Iran and the P5 + 1 is an international agreement and everyone should strive to maintain it.

Dr Kharrazi, describing the latest status of the JCPOA and the necessity for Europe to fulfil its commitments to protect the deal, stated: “Europe’s response in this respect would show to what extent it will be moving in line with its independence.”

On the IRI policy in the region, Dr Kharrazi underlined the role Iran plays in creating stability in the region and stated that Iran’s influence in the regional states has not been generated by the use of force but is rather the fruit of the IRI spiritual influence in the hearts of nations.

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

2024/05/13

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

2024/05/12

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: 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.
