In an exclusive interview with IRNA, the head of Iran’s diplomatic corps, who is in New York to attend the 76th session of the UN General Assembly, stated: “We will not negotiate with the P5 + 1 members at the moment.” We have talked to different parties individually and bilaterally. When the investigations in the Islamic Republic of Iran and the study of Borjam’s case are completed, the materials and views will be exchanged at the negotiating table.
According to IRNA, Amir Abdullahian is currently holding frequent and intensive diplomatic meetings in New York with his counterparts and officials of international institutions on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly, to explain the policies of the 13th government and regulate foreign relations.
In the midst of his very intensive programs, we had a short interview about the two axes of the 13th government’s approach to its neighbors and Borjam, which is the main focus of his discussions and meetings with European and international officials, at Iran’s representative office at the UN. He answered and after our short interview he went to meet another colleague again.
Remarks by the new Iranian Foreign Minister to Joseph Borrell
Asked about his talks with his European counterparts and international officials, including the European Union’s foreign policy chief, the Iranian foreign minister said: “We have made it clear to them that the new government that has come to power in Iran is pragmatic.”
The head of Iran’s diplomatic corps said: “In my meetings with the foreign ministers of Britain, Germany, as well as Mr. Josep Borrell, the foreign policy chief of the European Union, and officials of the United Nations and other European countries who are somehow involved in this issue, I explicitly stated relations with Europe.” Is not limited to Europe consisting of three countries: Germany, Britain and France.
Amir Abdullahian emphasized: We explicitly told the other parties that the new government of Iran does not believe in negotiations for negotiations. Tangible achievement is important to us.
“They have to understand a few things,” he said. The first point is that they have to decide whether they want to return to Barjam and their commitments. In practice, nothing has happened except for a very small part of the commitments made in Borjam, even at a certain point. Their return to commitments must be accompanied by initiatives from the other side.
The Iranian Foreign Minister said: “I told Mr. Josep Borrell, the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, that our people are finally asking that all this negotiation and negotiation, the longest document, the longest negotiation in the history of diplomacy, And what was its economic achievement for the country?
Borrell conveys views and criticisms
Amir Abdullahian added: “At the same time, I criticized, is it possible that Mr. Biden, on the one hand, wants Iran to return to the negotiating table, sometimes sending messages that we are willing to talk to each other bilaterally, and at the same time Will return to its obligations and Borjam, impose new sanctions against the Islamic Republic and the people of our country.
The senior diplomat of the Islamic Republic of Iran stated: I am telling these things to the negotiating parties in New York, and Mr. Joseph Borrell was also supposed to convey these things, which finally makes sense for Iran. He acknowledged that their argument was a valid one, and that the Americans should clarify their position on the matter.
America’s behavior is paradoxical
Amir Abdullahian stated: America’s behavior is paradoxical and contradictory. On the one hand, the invitation and request to return to Borjam, and on the other hand, the imposition of new sanctions and sometimes the negative literature that is used in the media and their interviews.
Failure of US policy of political and diplomatic isolation
The new head of Iran’s diplomatic service emphasized: “But the important point is that the Islamic Republic of Iran is a model in the world.” In New York, due to the large number of appointments, due to time constraints, we have had to shorten some and apologize and postpone some.
He added: “This shows that even the American policy for political and diplomatic isolation of Iran has not reached a conclusion and the size and position of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the region and in the international system is well understood by countries, governments and governments.” کردن.
The Iranian Foreign Minister said: “Iranians, considering the history and civilization and the great nation of Iran, are not a nation that can not be seen in the world. They shine in the world despite all the pressures exerted by the enemies.”
Economic relations will be strengthened; We do not distance ourselves from the negotiating table
Amir Abdullahian said: I am very optimistic that the future is a bright future. Economic relations will strengthen and move forward at a good pace, God willing, and we will see its effects inside the country.
He added: “We are not looking to distance ourselves from the negotiating table. We will definitely pursue a negotiation that serves the rights and interests of our nation.
The red line of Mr. Raisi’s government
Iran’s new foreign minister, meanwhile, said: “But one of the red lines of Mr. Raisi’s government is that we do not want to tie the country to Borjam.” Tie the country to the Vienna talks, and each section works in its own way for the development, excellence and progress of the country.
The head of Iran’s diplomatic service added: “If in this direction, the Vienna and Borjam talks also reach a conclusion, Fabha al-Murad.” It will become catalyzing and our relations and economic progress will accelerate and accelerate.
Opinions will be exchanged at the negotiating table
In response to an IRNA reporter’s question whether Mr. Joseph Borrell is going to convey the other side’s answer to us? “Obviously, one of the tasks of the European Union is to bring the views closer together in the negotiations,” he said.
Amir Abdullahian added: “But we will not negotiate with the P5 + 1 members at the moment.” We have talked to different parties individually and bilaterally. When the investigations in the Islamic Republic of Iran and the study of Borjam’s case are completed, the materials and views will be exchanged at the negotiating table.
At the same time, the head of Iran’s diplomatic corps said: “Our opposing parties are very insistent that the time to return to the negotiating table should not be long.” I explained to them that despite the fact that we are the new government, we are facing the crisis in Afghanistan, which has affected some of our country’s border issues.
The senior diplomat of the Islamic Republic of Iran added: “We are examining approaches to the issue of returning to negotiations, and God willing, we will return to the negotiating table at the earliest opportunity, but a negotiating table that is fruitful and fruitful.”
It presented new opportunities for us and the region
The new Iranian Foreign Minister also said about his talks with his regional counterparts and neighbors: “In the talks we had with the countries of the region and it is still going on, I felt that a new atmosphere has been created.” The countries of the region tend to work with more motivation than in the past with the new government and the new approach, which has been given priority by its neighbors.
Amir Abdullahian stated: Therefore, I think there are new opportunities for us and the countries of the region.
Referring to his meeting with the Kyrgyz Foreign Minister, the head of the diplomatic service said that a few days had passed since Dr. Raisi’s visit to Tajikistan. Iran has entered the process of permanent membership in the Shanghai Organization, the first visit of the President to one of our northern neighbors, who met the members of Shanghai at the level of heads of state. “Naturally, this trip has had a positive effect on our meetings in New York,” he said.
Amir Abdullahian said: “In neighboring countries, they feel that the government’s slogan and approach to its neighbors is real, and part of it has been implemented by the president, and they are interested in emphasizing that they want to develop their relations with Iran in this area as well.”
