TEHRAN - In a note, Kayhan addressed the issue of de-dollarization and said: "The Shanghai Cooperation Organization, which our country became a member during the Raisi administration, presents a potential possibility to ameliorate "common pain", a common pain that is the result of America's arrogant spirit.

At least three members, including the most important members of this organization, are in opposition to America: Iran, Russia, and China. All three countries want to delete the tools of American intervention from the policies of other countries. Undoubtedly, the dollar is the main tool of the United States in this campaign. Though it has nine main members, the Shanghai Organization accounts for a significant share of the global trade. By establishing a bank, the problems caused by the dollar can be solved. The currency created by the Shanghai Cooperation Organization is very likely to be supported by other organizations such as BRICS.

Iran: Big Russian trade market should not be overlooked 

In an article, the Iran newspaper discussed the growth of trade relations between Iran and Russia and wrote: Trade relations between Iran and Russia are increasing and good news is being heard from Moscow. As announced, the export of Iranian products to Russia in 2023 reached more than two billion dollars, which is unprecedented in the history of joint cooperation between Iran and Russia. As a rule, if businessmen take a deeper look at the Russian market, Iran's exports to Russia will increase at a faster rate. The Russian market is very big. The Russian market cannot be compared with the markets of Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. Iran's negotiations and numerous talks between government officials and Russians have caused Russian businessmen to pay more attention to Iranian goods. Therefore, this opportunity should not be lost.

Shargh: Can Washington and Tehran find a common reason for cooperation again?

In an analysis, Shargh looked at the views of Iran and America towards each other by quoting Farid Zakaria, a famous analyst of international relations, who has said: Two ideas are often the basis of America's strategy that must be destroyed. First, the Iranian government will fall and suddenly become a pro-American ally. The second idea is that America and the current government of Iran can be friends. The truth is that Iran is a very proud and nationalistic country that is deeply ingrained in the sense of its historical greatness. The Islamic revolution is anti-American in its DNA. The politicians who govern Iran have an ideology that is as much related to the importance of religion as it is to the importance of resistance against America. It seems unlikely that Washington and Tehran will be able to find a common reason for cooperation again. The path that both countries are on is one that they are both comfortable with, despite the fact that it is full of tension and misunderstanding and could even lead to war.

Siasat-e-Rooz: One lie after another

Siasat-e-Rooz devoted its editorial to the claims of the United States and its Western partners regarding Iran's nuclear activities. It wrote: According to the International Atomic Energy Agency, Iran has been the subject of most inspections as well as cooperation with the agency, while the Americans in the framework of pressure on Iran and pursuing their ambitious goals, refuse to accept the completely peaceful nature of Iran's nuclear activities, and continue to lie for two decades and have even imposed sanctions against Iran. Sanctions which, according to UN Special Representative Ms. Dohan, are contrary to all international and humanitarian laws and are considered crimes against humanity. Dohan says the perpetrators and directors of sanctions must be held accountable and all sanctions be canceled. The lies are being repeated on the anniversary of the Ukraine war. As John Kirby has claimed the West will impose more sanctions against Iran in the coming days and they are ready to go further if Iran sells ballistic missiles to Russia. These lies are derived from the critical situation that American leaders, including Biden, are facing.
