TEHRAN PAPERS

The world admits that Iran's nuclear activity is peaceful

June 22, 2024 - 0:26

TEHRAN - Siasat-e-Rooz devoted its editorial to the report of the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) and wrote: In recent days, numerous news and reports have been published about the increasing tendency of the possessors of nuclear weapons to expand these weapons, and this is a big alarm for the security of the world.

The institute is worried about the increase of nuclear approaches in the world, while the name of the Islamic Republic of Iran is not mentioned in its alleged list. This is an acknowledgment of the peaceful nature of Iran's nuclear activities. This is because in recent weeks, the Westerners in the form of the European troika, as well as those present at the Group of 7 meetings, have made false and repeated claims centered on Iran's nuclear threat. By making nuclear lies against Iran, the West seeks to accuse Tehran and exonerate the Zionist regime from international protests against the crime and genocide in Gaza, because the West has not reacted to the Zionists' repeated threats to use nuclear weapons against Gaza.

Arman-e-Emrooz: Exchanging messages with America?

Arman-e-Emrooz dealt with the trip of Ali Bagheri, the acting Minister of Foreign Affairs, to visit and discuss with high-ranking Qatari officials. The paper said: It was said that consultation and exchange of views with the Qatari authorities regarding the end of the war in Gaza and quick assistance to the residents of Gaza are at the top of the discussion and exchange of views during Bagheri's trip to Doha, but it seems that the issue of negotiations with America has been raised once again. According to unofficial reports, negotiations between Iran and the United States have begun in the fourth phase, and it seems that the first axis of these negotiations is to reduce tension in the region, the second axis is to prevent an increase in tension, especially between Israel and Lebanon, and the third axis is to reduce tension with the Yemeni Houthis. Bagheri's hasty trip to Doha seems to be related to unofficial movements to reduce the tension desired by Iran and the United States in the region. It seems that both America and Tehran are worried about the tension level between Hezbollah and the Zionist regime getting out of control, and the next few hours will determine where the situation in the region is going to go?!

Vatan-e-Emrooz: Presidential diplomacy is a unique model for the 14th government

The outstanding performance of the 13th government in foreign policy opened many doors for Iran not only in the economic field but also in the security and political fields. Some foreign leaders and officials came to Tehran to participate in the funeral ceremony of martyr Raisi and Amir Abdollahian, who had no official relationship with Iran in the past 40 years, and this was due to their diplomacy. This diplomacy made the leaders and officials of these countries travel to Iran for respect. A multifaceted view of diplomacy instead of a one-dimensional approach of looking at the West and its special importance to the economy in diplomacy showed the high power of this government in the field of foreign policy. For success in this field, the head of the 14th government must put the foreign policy of the 13th government at the top of his work and following it will be one of the requirements for the success of the future government. It was a unique foreign policy that promoted the dignity of Islamic Iran and guaranteed the national interests of our country.

Ham Mihan: The path of interaction between Iran and Russia

In a commentary, Ham Mihan addressed the way forward in the interaction between Iran and Russia and said: According to some experts, Amir Abdollahian, the late foreign minister, played a significant role in consolidating Tehran's relations with Moscow. After Russia attacked Ukraine, Tehran increased defense cooperation with Russia, and in return, Tehran received three squadrons of training aircraft. On the other hand, as a trend, any new interaction between Tehran and Moscow is usually more media hype. One of these examples is the multibillion-dollar contract in Iran's oil and gas industry, which has no significant progress. In this regard, the construction of the Rasht-Astara railway has not been completed yet. Considering Tehran's anti-Western positions, it is unlikely that the new Iranian president will change Tehran's position towards the West, which means that Moscow's engagement with Tehran will potentially increase. However, this increased relationship will not necessarily lead to the quick completion of joint projects due to bureaucratic obstacles and delays. The fate of the joint projects will not change even if the new president follows Raisi's position with a trip to Moscow.
