See the of the frequency of the interviews you can see the frequency of tweets and there has been a dramatic and actually. It could be partly explained by the intensification of Pressure Campaign by does the western side specially the us and im not talking just about the economic pressure im talking about the Media Campaign truth or campaign i mean social media in general if such a car no for Public Diplomacy was absent in the general framework of the. You know Foreign Policy its would be really difficult for your own to really you know actually announce its real position and clarity fawley its main positions on the different issues and also to reach out to targets countries as you. Towards now speaking about the target audience i thought the main target audience for this media appearances over the last couple of months have been the europeans with their somewhat feeble attempts to salvage part of the 2015 new created deal i think its now clear that thats not going to happen but do you think the authorities in teheran ever sincerely believe that the europeans would go against the americans in such a serious and some would say provocative way. Actually it wasnt a waltz believe it was a balls hope you know hoping thats in the car and you know trends in the International Affairs i mean thats kind of the you know rather demise of the you want to troll of the United States on the rise of the other main centers of power of china and russia europe would also be willing to you know take a kind of independent role in the International Arena so you dont try to if we are to. Talk about the initiatives very well youre on and also about the recent you know wave of. The recent phases of the reduction of irans commitments under the Nuclear Deal Reached kind of a gradual pattern in dealing with the europeans so at the 1st because youre wrong from the very beginning at. Its commitment to the nuclear deal you try to save it with the remaining parties but after being disappointed from from the european sides its try to you know actually change its approach in order to get them on board so i can see that your own is still hopeful to save the deal based on the current actors remained which remains in juice j. C. B. Way but i mean. What hope is there left especially after the europeans very suddenly change their position on. The recent saudi attacks and blame the iran for those attacks where i mean in diplomatic terms it was clear that it was not only about the saudi air attacks but it was also i think about that track their brain in track and that commitments to the way dont you think so. Actually. I think the european assessment of course it was seen in iran as a kind of negative as a kind of negative move you know whats on the other hand it isnt. You know name iran as as being conducted the attacks it said that they said it was responsible and the responsibility of. Chancellor make of try to somehow modify the position im not going into details of that im saying thats. At the Current Situation maybe irans thats hope i was talking about is that maybe the europeans based on the for example the recent initiatives raised by manuel micron of france maybe they can do something to you know americans to the negotiating table indeed mutually accept a terror i mean. Im sure stroker that is siding. Position jast with their parents about you not in terms of trying to lure the americans to being a negotiating table the mistrust between iran and the european sides. Droving got the moments lets hope i was talking about is that i mean from the arena on side is that maybe the europeans can come and can convince the United States to lift the sanctions to do something for diplomacy to gets back to the threat you know i think iran has been trying to achieve i mean it has defined a kind of 2 fold approach industry. Why did reduction of the comments means either do europeans would be you know somehow feeling to do something against the United States and save the nuclear deal why some measures like in states or Something Like that or at the end of the day there will be new negotiations between. All the sides again including the United States so iran would need some kind of looters industry guard. Is it fair to say that both of these tracks have failed. I mean from the european side its been mostly restricted to do you know expressing Political Support and also from the american side im sure that you have seen the reports of whats happened to you know the u. N. General assembly recently. Only condition was that the United States should remove the sanctions and then the talks would be possible what the United States refused to do so and for iran you know its not about just the governments its the also the Public Opinion there is an increasing resource toward the United States because of his role from the juice if you are so there was a real concern that if iran goes through the negotiation new negotiations with the United States and then the United States again refuses to lift the sanctions large the same they did to north korea everything would be even worse than the tease so yes from one point of view we can see that those initiatives have failed by i can see the signs of new initiative in place i mean starting to diplomacy extract from inside the region talking about the recent signs of you know reeling this for target between for talks between iran and saudi arabia expressed by blood to both sides President Trump and his secretary of state mike on pay are awesome to talk about toughness as the main feature of their Foreign Policy especially iran why do you think down they laughed those attacks on that on the facilities that acts that they blame squarely on iran without any. Response that would demonstrate that toughness and all about the sanctions against the central bank but that i think you would agree that compared to the magnitude of the charges. That there are actually took out those facilities and this is minuscule why do you think they have not responded in a tough way. I think there are several reasons 1st of all because there hasnt been a concrete sign that it was iran behind that its easy to say thats life again. Was experienced why do you look and its easy to say that you dont was responsible because you dont support the. Movements well its easy to say this and the United States has had you know experience of iraq war and i dont think that the situation that the United States wanted to do something militarily. Would have been able to gain some support from from its main allies this is this is one reason the other isnt i can say is that president president romps general on willingness to gets into on the sister of ours in the United States is especially in just one year remaining to the new us elections and finally i think more importantly is the transfer of the Islamic Republic the iranian officers has publicly said thats no kind of you know military move against iran would be remains unanswered and the answer would involve not only ring on borders with also the whole region so this makes the United States and not only the United States also the other actors that would thats maybe want to you know raise of all military action against iran saying to us now while the americans didnt respond militarily they continue tightening the screws on the iranian economy and i know that you wrote recently that to me to gave that pressure iran has been trying to cultivate trade with its neighbors particularly in the dollar denominated trade but i soon learned that even trading in local current. This requires some tacit and nerika approval of small countries like i said bridge and like crimea really a 4th trait of iraq without facing some sort of rebuke from washington of course there has been this fear from the side of the arena neighbors. Actually the policy of. Missiles that uses neighbors 1st started to be devised from before the us withdrawal from the nuclear deal i can see that the main parts of this follows the ease. I mean its not restricted only to ukrainian neighbors its aimed at the nonwestern groups powers like russia and china in iran sees a kind of reeling this to do something you dependency from the United States for example the reports about china. You know still continuing to buy uranium oil and also. You know trying to define new ways of interacting example to integrate the iran more closely into the eurasian if you know all the you know any exact do you think that are going to you know have project for russia clearly but. You know there are many criticisms about how effective that they can all make here and has been do you think its has enough out to protect iran from them or pressure thats a chorus situation it doesnt have thats thats kind of influence or thats going to leverage but you know the more the United States uses sanctions as a Political Tool and the more countries are being sanctioned by do not add to the states the very you know importance of sanctions as a tool. Being you know decrees for example both iran and russia are in a kind of. You know toughening us sanctions at this situation. I can see that the political willingness to do something about this is in place and practical steps as a starter to be taken by the sides of course its a gradual and maybe its a matter of decades or so and thats not so lets hope that iran has enough time and enough already reserves to stand this time because it would help you along gaining more and more Political Support to say that you know if we come back it would be useful to compare the Current Situation for example the decision before to signing of the nuclear deal when there was a general consensus among the europeans and americans in sanctioning iran on the one hand. There were you know a Un Security Council resolutions against iran and also at that time russia and china were totally. Same page with the United States but. China is that kind of economic war with the United States russia is experiencing one of its worst periods of relations with the United States so everything is different thats Political Support with at least currency some kinds of stay really to the fore for the Current Situation so that you dont can build on that and continue to. Translate it into more countries measures in terms of economic benefits mr is that we have to take a short break now well be back in just a few moments stay tuned. In the age of trump what has happened to journalistic standards and competence in the media not long ago it was generally agreed that politics was the art of the possible no one news near to must prevail and all others must be vanquished the state of affairs to serve the public interest. Welcome back to worlds apart with time and that is as easy as system professor for a general studies that show he had been hashed to university in tech crunch that there is a day before the break you mentioned that there are countries that are still willing to defy that pressure and i think china would be one of them there have been reports that chinese oil tankers for example are switching all their transponders and changing then names to avoid being detected but the americans out also stepping up. Efforts to squeeze irans ability to export its oil. The latest news is that there are already 5 countries that have joined the American Initiative for the patrols of the persian gulf do you think it may actually result in iran being physically blocked in fact locative from being able to access the maritime route. For exporting its no i dont think so because. Except for the United States use of the other countries do not have that kind of you know physical leverage and real liberals to do something in this regard and except for saudi arabia and its regional allies which are also joined the coalition and reach not so you know he them they were. Too concerned youre wrong the others have weeks explicitly said that they aim is not to. Find of confrontation with iran and its just about securing the american roads as a talking about like 555. 00 starting patrols in november and you can say all you want all it takes but. Iran has already had issues with one of its assholes being detained are you absolutely confident that. Irans ability to operate on this theory and particularly in the persian gulf war of will not be compromised by this Initiative Iran from the very beginning has shown a negative response to this this is a fact why because iran has been. Opposing the prisons of foreign powers for shalit us and powers in the persian gulf this is one issue the other issue is that the iranian officials especially the military ones have made it very clear that in case of any kind of you know provocative move from the United States or the others there could be a war in the region and iran has shown that it has the ability to do something by downing to us strong so im not saying thats go to war in the stay safe im not saying this but im saying thats. The other part is no thats theres a cost and theres a huge cost for entering all confronted. So i think thats the main nature actually did very nature of the recent u. S. Initiative for the persian gulf is mostly politico now for decades the fret to blow the strait of hormuz has been iran is saying to if a response to any american pressure im not trying to take any sides here but dont you think that the iranians themselves are responsible for giving the trumpet ministration this idea all how to her the most. Of your rights. And the warning toward the other countries about its. Potential closer of the straits well its interesting we havent hear of this. Passover along so. But on the other hand you dont have as i said as i mentioned you dont have more serious and why you will have more immediate options to respond to do you know for example how can the iran of the and if there is indeed a more serious i think the americans have the largest successful in substantially decreasing the rainy and oil trade i mean if you look at the latest figures i think in july the export of oil was around 100000. 00 Barrels Per Day this is very very small compared to like 2000000000. 00 Barrels Per Day back in 2018 so the damage is already done you know of course of course its 1st of all. Thats not the official was set to 16 these are just speculations of course its decrease through critics and whats on the other hand lets go back to the previous point of boats your own trying to expand relations with the other countries with visits neighbors you know and im talking especially well there have been some discussions of. Helping your own to sell its orders on the other. You know issues like that so iran is west country we have. The north we have the other options so its not about of course. Any kind of you know kind of block either something but thats in the persian gulf would restrict iran even more than before but it wouldnt mean that iran would be you know in a situation of lacking in a kind of other options you mentioned before that iran has intensified its. Outreach after its ministers that if keeps talking about. Pacts with its neighbors including saudi arabia do you take that as. As an act of diplomacy and effort to preside itself as a responsible International Player or is it indeed a viable Security Solution which is why will because its been in place for several years its not the 1st time that iran is trying to reach out to saudi arabia on the other countries 1st year andres the initiative of you know regional regional dialogue and. Its. Raised the idea of nonaggression pact based on observations but studies on the Foreign Policy are based on living inside the country i can say thats the idea of collective security in the 1st go through Something Real for iran but it is the regional situation thats you know leads iran to do balancing acts i mean mr is it his story history knows may or not many but the number of nonaggression pots that resulted in their actually in the war world war i mean even if. Iran and saudi arabia signed this document candy to really trust one and not there or it would be more like and then the aggression that joe many in the soviet union signed 18 years ago that the Current Situation of total lack of trust between the 2 countries and the situation thats broke out at any moments. The 2 sides you know lose from signing of such and such a document if at least it helps them to compensate the saudis will lose faith face and they will lose their ability to. Have that friends i think have already lost face by you know being targeted as well by the human body not being able to you know raise your kind of Successful Operation against against them so they have said this would help them i think it would help them you know because iran has many times iran has many times theyre cleared. It doesnt support human news militarily because its simply impossible but it supports them politically if such a kind of the aggression parents signed between the 2 sides iran can help. You know the help so i would use and human use to negoti
