-Mr. Ambassador thank you for giving us the opportunity to talk, international conditions have been disrupted, especially for you and perhaps all countries in the world. We want to talk more explicitly about international conditions. A comprehensive strategic partnership treaty signed between the two countries. What do you think about this and what the future do you see about this treaty?
-I also thank you for the opportunity to talk to, the Islamic Republic of Iran and Russia’s Federation is growing in various dimensions. We are pleased that Consultation The Strategic Comprehensive Comprehensive Signs was signed between the two President President in January this year. You approved it as Russia in the Duma Majlis; As they told me, it will be approved by the Federation Council next week. Our government is also preparing a bill and will soon be submitted to the and will naturally be adopted in parliament Alajra . As everyone saw Iran’s comprehensive agreement. We have documented in all aspects of production. All in the economic, political, cultural, student, technology and defense dimension, all the implementation of this treaty will be further enhanced and the issues of relations will be diverse and there will be a stability in the relations between the two countries. As you mentioned, today’s world is the world of is a transformative and we and you are a great neighbor, we have a historical background. We have common goals in the world now. We are both opposed to unilateralism, in agreement with Pluralism power and that all should be in the system between Brix and the Eurasian Economic Union, so the relationship between the two countries in this challenging world is expanding.
-Thank you for your talk. The Free Trade Agreement with the Eurasian Economic Union has two countries, it is necessary, I want to hear from your language, with this agreement What are we going to do, what is going to happen?
You mentioned the right thing, one of our great work is the free trade agreement between the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Eurasian Economic Union member states. We already had a preferential currency cancellation agreement, we still have and work on it. If we want to evaluate from year 2 to the present day when agreement Operation of preferential currency was operational; Our business volume increased. We have now signed this free trade agreement and fortunately approved by all five parliaments, the five members of the Eurasian Union and the Islamic Republic of Iran, and the Agreement will be implemented from 1 May ; With this, about 2 percent of Iran and Russia include the cancellation of the . This is a great privilege for businessmen and businessmen of the two countries, and there is a time for force, and Russian businessmen must come in the middle of the field to export goods to Iran and Iranian businessmen for exporting goods to Russia. As a government, we have provided conditions for the private sector and businessmen. You have a lot of goods for export to Iran and we have a lot of capacity to export goods into Russia. Part of these goods in Heitc , pharmaceutical, medical equipment, industrial products. The bed is completely available and encompasses many goods. It is a great opportunity for both governments to have good information and our experiences and consider the needs of the two countries in different areas. This cooperation will stabilize many of our areas. I am a very clear horizon in the because we have prepared the upstream documents that have to rail the relationship with the two completely prepared and hope that the private sector of the two countries, especially the benefits of the Iranian and Eurasian Free Trade Agreement.
-I would like to ask an important question about the north-south corridor and the role of Iran and Russia. What is the situation right now? Before we talked to you, good progress had happened, how is the situation now?
-We are pleased to launch the Islamic Republic of Iran and Federation Russia. The north and south hub has three branches; It is an eastern branch that starts from Russia and reaches to Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Iran. We started this branch. We started year 2; That is, before this year we didn’t have this branch of the process. About 6,000 tons of goods were passed through this year. I targeted to carry about 2 million tons of goods from this route in year 2, we are pleased to reach one million and 6,000 tonnes, close to . We hope that this figure will reach 5 million tonnes in year 2. This route has a capacity of 5 million tons and we have to reach this figure and later we can develop this branch. The next part is the middle branch. Which comes from Russia to the Caspian Sea and then to Iran. In year 2, more than 5 million tons of goods crossed the branch, and that is a good figure. The next part is the western branch and Jadiyah which carried 2 million tons of this route; But the Rasht-Astara piece has not yet been built. Fortunately, there is a very good relationship between the Russian Ministry of Transport and the Iranian Ministry of Roads and Urban Development. I had a meeting with your Deputy Minister of Transport a few days ago; Reviewed the last situation with each other; Dear Dr. Medical, our president Our republic has allocated a good budget for the purchase of Rasht-Astara land. All the supreme leader of the revolution and the our President Our President and also President President and Prime Minister and Minister of Transport
-Iran and Russia both have gas, there is a desire to co-operate in this area, is there a possibility of understanding in this area?
-The argument was that Russian gas was transferred through Iran. We fully agree; We signed the initial agreement, negotiations between the two countries are underway. I can tell you that more than 5 % of the negotiations have reached an agreement, in one or two cases, no understanding has not yet been made, Inshallah In the near future (April at May), we will have a joint commission of the two countries. President The Joint Commission by Our Petroleum Minister is Chairman The Joint Commission is also the Russian Energy Minister. Both positions will meet in Moscow; We hope to reach a few remaining in that case and we can provide Russian gas from Iran.
-Is the fundamental or basic differences?
-There are conversations about the prices that we solve. Apart from these discussions, we have no other specific issue, we are sure that this is solved, as we are two countries whose relationships are based on mutual interest, and we talk at a balanced level, our conversations are not superior. These are helping us to understand each other.
Return to the Free Trade Zone between the two countries and the Comprehensive Treaty, are there any areas that are fundamentally and theoretically but are not implemented for some reason?
-We have some issues that we need to solve objectively, we have complete cooperation documents, but business has some needs, one of which is the resolution of banking matters. We have to speed up our speed in this area; Because when traders do business, their goal and end is to get their profit and receive their own money. So we still have problems with monetary and banking, though we had a lot of talks and have gone a good way so far; But our issues are not completely resolved, or along with these discussions, we have Kamargat , in the customs duties we have signed, good and good, but there we need the facilities, we can only communicate with the Caspian and water, but we can communicate with the Caspian and water. We also need to coordinate the intermediary countries and their interests must be provided and work with us and you. In one part we need to cooperate with Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan, in another area we need to coordinate with Azerbaijan. We have other ways to do it through Armenia and Georgia to Russia. Over time, this path must be opened and its problems will be resolved. So there is a Camigi and another discussion of the intermediary countries we need to coordinate. Another discussion but good logistics facilities we need to provide. In the Caspian, for example, we need to renovate and upgrade both naval countries, develop ports, have problems in one area of Iranian ports, and in some areas of Russian ports. For example, we strengthen in Iran behind the coasts. Create good facilities. Your port capacities are good, but we need to reinforce the backward coast, your coastal ports are almost in Volga. You only have a port of non- Volgai which is Makhach Castle, so we have to reinforce it. Self Volga should be dredged regularly. In addition, one of the problems Volga is that winter transfers become difficult; Outline problems over us. These things that need to be resolved by the two countries are not merely resolved by signing the document; Naval fleet and port facilities must be strengthened.
-I also wanted to ask about something else, your banks are braking or our banks?
-Because we have been sanctions before you, your banks are waiting for sanctions to lift, we have to lift the sanctions and normalize banking relations. We did good things in this regard, for example, the confidential messengers of the two countries were connected, we had problems before, or in the areas of monetary and financial transfers a value Lubrication But the speed needs to be increased. We expect our Russian friends to pay more attention. Because in the economy sector everyone is trying not to be sanctioned. The two countries are now sanctions and they have to see today’s situation, we just had the first place in the boycott, today you have taken our place. Today you have more than 6,000 sanctions, we have more than 3,000 sanctions. They are hostile to us and you, we do not consider these sanctions legitimate. For the two nations of Iran and Russia, we do not deserve to be boycotted. But as you were able to handle yourself well, we managed ourselves well. Those who boycotted you, thought, your economy has been , but your economic growth is more than most of the countries that boycotted you, we made the most. Anyway, We have argued that we need to work more and remove the barriers faster. The trade of the two countries can be upgraded.
-We have entered international issues with these talk, entering the topics between . Iran has had threats from the United States in recent years and I realize that Iran is ready to deal with any threat, what do you think Iran’s response to these threats will be?
-When you talk about the threat, I was the first year of the guidance when the Islamic Revolution of Iran won, that is, five years ago. Now I’m 5 years old. For the past five years of my life there is a regular threat, boycott and military attack and everything on the table, I heard these, but our country went on. Because the Iranian nation cannot be threatened. Because we are rooted nation. Our edited date is more than three thousand years. So we are not a nation that has just come to
>. During this date, we encountered a lot of ridicule. Our history can be studied. By the way, we are a cultural nation, sometimes they invaded us and even dominated us, but Iranian culture digested them, and even Iranian culture built other forces, so they speak threats, sanctions, the Russian nation can better understand us today. The sanctions are hard, we are not hard, but it builds a nation, you are a nation under sanctions, but you have both scientific capacity, natural resources and Goddess , you are a vast country and a nation, people in some areas. These people are not ordinary people, they did not grow up in the blessings, created their lives hard, built their civilization in the hardships, you are a nation that has a thousand years of history. There are also problems with Iran, too.
-We realized that it was five years. But now your leader has decided to get the armed forces ready. That means Iran looks very seriously on these threats, what do you think the consequences will be?
-Two ways ahead, the first is the threat and the second is the path of negotiation; If you look at the 5 -year -old revolution, we were always in the negotiations, we neither escaped from the negotiating table nor did we act against our commitments. Because in addition to the human duty to fulfill our obligations, our religion has obliged us to fulfill us, the Qur’an states “ Evafova So we did not leave the path of negotiations, and today the indirect talks are due to take place on Saturday between the Islamic Republic of Iran and the United States. Of course, we said that the negotiations are indirect and indirectly. The second part is the threat, we are ready to deal with the threat, if we were to surrender to the threat, for what years we stood, we became accustomed to these threats and lived with these threats. It depends on which path to continue. We do not have the , provided that Iran’s dignity is preserved and our red line is respected. Our country officials, Dr. Arakchi, our esteemed Foreign Minister, have repeatedly stated that we do not initiate any war and where we will not attack , but if we are to attack, we will confront all strengths. But we do not welcome war and we don’t talk to war literature; We definitely prefer the conversation. We must think we are human and we can solve the issues through the conversation; But we have a bitter experience, and that we have been discussing the subject of peaceful nuclear programs for a few years, it was always our opponent who emptied the scene or did not fulfill or overdo it. The new route begins on Saturday and we have to see how it will go.
-Why Iran says it doesn’t directly negotiate? Don’t think the direct negotiation will make the result faster?
-we But our leader said something that is very wise, they said why don’t we negotiate? Then they said the reason? Then they said the reason for the experience. We have different experiences, such as in the same negotiations that led to the Brajam; We talked straight together, spent several time to reach the brigade; Remember how many conversations were there? There was a direct relationship, our then Secretary of State was regularly e -mailing with the US Secretary of State, had a telephone conversation, they were in cyberspace, one had to ask what happened later. The results of the negotiations were violated at once. Our leader pointed out the exact point, said This is in front of our eyes. We are currently negotiating to see . Really, if there is a horizon for understanding and Iran’s dignity is preserved, Iran has no direct talks
-Now the structure of Saturday negotiations is about boycott
, or nuclear or agenda at the same time?
-I am not in detail, but what is speculative my wife is that Saturday’s meeting will be the first meeting, and there will be both the future negotiations and goals we have, if the opposite side is honest, and what is true. Style = “Text-align: Justify”> US President recently said that we do not want Iran to have nuclear weapons, if the demand is, the problem is solved. Because Iran is not looking for nuclear weapons. We have all the agency’s inspections Acceptance . Our leader again has a clear statement, saying, “If we wanted nuclear weapons, we would have achieved, we didn’t want to have a nuclear weapon, and now it is. So the issue is solved. ” What is our demand? Our demand is also lifting sanctions and bottlenecks. If we go the same path, we can succeed, but if you are over again. Relaced matters enter, write the outcome of the negotiations in advance, and say let’s sign, naturally Iran does not consider such negotiations, negotiations means dialogue; That is, to sit down enough to solve our problems. So this result depends on the honesty of our opponent. اگر با صداقت و با تغییر روشهای گذشته بیایند، میتوان به نتیجه مذاکرات امیدوار بود.
-در مجلس شما بیانیهای مطرح شده بود که ایران باید به سمت ساخت سلاح هستهای حرکت کند، آیا گزینه هست که اگر مذاکرات شکست بخورد ایران به سمت…
-نه در مجلس ایران، بیانیه یا مصوبهای در این خصوص وجود ندارد، یکی از نمایندگان محترم مجلس، از تریبون نظر خود را گفت، آن نظر یک نماینده بود. من ۲۰ سال در مجلس بودم. رئیس مجلس موظف است، تریبون نمایندگان مجلس را باز کند و آنها میتوانند اظهار نظر کنند؛ اظهار نظر نمایندگان مختلف است، اظهار نظر یک نماینده ملاک نیست، آنچه برای ما مهم است، تصمیم نظام ماست. تصمیم نظام ما در سخنان رهبر ما، سخنان رئیس جمهور ما، وزیر خارجه ما، در سخنان سخنگوی دولت و در سخنان سخنگوی وزارت امور خارجه ما تبلور پیدا میکند. در همه دنیا عرف همین است. اما من عرض کردم من خودم در مجلس بودم، معمولاً اعضای پارلمان، دیدگاههای خود را مطرح میکنند. طرح نظرات آنها تا زمانیکه در مجلس تصویب نشود، صرفاً یک ایده است. نه ما همچنان روی نظر خودمان هستیم و به دنبال تولید سلاح هستهای نیستیم.
-پس اظهار نظر همکار شما، اظهار نظر شخصی درباره ایران بوده است؟
-بله نظر شخصی ایشان بود. در همه مجلس همه نمایندگان اظهار نظر میکنند و اینها نظرات شخصی آنهاست، اگر یک روزی به بیانیه و یا مصوبه و قانون تبدیل شد، آن زمان نظر کشور میشود.
-امروز فشاری که علیه ایران و روسیه میآورند، همکاریهای فنی و نظامی ما در این شرایط چگونه توسعه پیدا میکند؟
-همکاریهای فنی و نظامی را با همدیگر داریم و از اول هم گفتیم که این همکاریها علیه هیچ کشوری نیست. ایران و روسیه دو کشور بزرگ هستند، سابقه تاریخی همکاری با همدیگر داریم، روابط ما مثل همه کشورهای همسایه فراز و فرود زیادی داشته. امروز در دوران طلایی روابط هستیم، این دوران طلایی هم بر اساس تعارف نیست، یک محورش به همسایگی بر میگردد و یک بخشی هم به رویکرد مشترک رهبران دو کشور بر میگردد و این اشتراکات در سازمان بریکس، شانگهای، اتحادیه اوراسیا تبلور پیدا کرده است، لذا روابط نظامی ما بدون اینکه تهدیدی برای کشوری باشد، در حال گسترش هست و گفتگوها انجام میشود و بر اساس اسنادی که وجود دارد، کارهای خودمان را به پیش میبریم.
