US Seeking to Portray Iran as Security Threat: Zarif

Speaking at the parliament floor on Sunday, Mohammad Javad Zarif said Washington is also trying to view economy through a security lens.

“In this full-scale war, the United States wants to do several things the most important of which is to create a concept, i.e., portray Iran as a security threat. After it features Iran as a threat to security, then the issue of Iran becomes the topic of discussion at locations and domains where the US dominates such as the UN Security Council,” he said.

“Or the US wants to drag the issue into the security domains of economy, so that it can deal security blows to global economy,” Zarif added.
He said the United States’ second strategy was to build a consensus against Iran.

“From January 2018 until last week, four UN Security Council meetings were held in a bid to put pressure on Iran,” said the top diplomat.

“One meeting was aimed at supporting riots, the second was chaired by Pompeo, the third meeting was attended by Trump and the last meeting was attended by me and Pompeo. The US was isolated in all those meetings because in all of them USSC members stressed the need to preserve the JCPOA and reiterated that the US is pursuing a wrong policy,” Zarif added.

He said Washington’s third objective is to tell fabricated stories about Iran, adding, “We should notice what the United States’ goal of this game is and we should take care not to get involved in this game.”

Zarif noted the US is also trying to pressurize Iran’s friends and target the country’s interests in the region.

“We should pay attention to that matter as well,” he added.

Zarif said the White House seeks to drive a wedge between Iranian people and the Establishment, and seeks to create the impression that the Islamic Republic’s System is inefficient.

“They want to delegitimize the Establishment,” he said.

Zarif further noted that the United States has misgivings over the emergence of countries such as China and other emerging countries.

Elsewhere in his remarks, the foreign minister said Iran should reach out to its neighbours and make them realize that the Islamic Republic is a source of security, stability and development in the region.

The consignment was sent to India through Shahid Beheshti port in Chabahar in line with a trilateral agreement signed by Iran, India and Afghanistan.

During the transit operations, as many as 30 refrigerated containers and nine ordinary ones all of which contained transit commodities coming from Afghanistan and destined for the Indian ports of Mundra and Nhava Sheva were loaded onto a vessel and shipped out to India, said a ports and maritime official.

“This is the first time that a container ship only carries container goods when leaving Shahid Beheshti port in Chabahar in keeping with the implementation of a trilateral deal between India,

Afghanistan and Iran,” the official added.

Iran Warns COVID-19 Patients against Hiding Their Infection

Addressing a meeting of the National Headquarters of Fight against Coronavirus on Saturday, President Hassan Rouhani said a plan should be drawn up to tackle the problem.

“Here, I’m telling the Health Committee and the Social-Security Committee to do something and present a plan about those who hide their disease, so that it could be approved at our meetings,” he said.

“Hiding one’s infection is regarded as encroaching upon others’ rights. In other words, some people hide their disease from their family or friends or colleagues or a stranger in the street, approach them and talk to them even without wearing masks,” he noted.

The president said those infected should wear masks, at least.

“At least, I must wear a mask if I’m infected. In the first place, I mustn’t leave home, and if I have to go out, I must wear a mask, observe social distancing and tell the other person not to get close to me. There’s nothing wrong with it. We should institutionalize this culture,” he said.

He underlined all those who have contracted the disease should inform people around them of their infection.

“At workplace and elsewhere as well as places of gathering, all infected people must tell others that they have contracted the disease, and if somebody has found out that another person is infected, they should reveal it, so that we will be able to get through this problem,” he said.

Elsewhere in his remarks, President Rouhani underlined that wearing masks in public places will be obligatory as of July 5, 2020. He said health protocols should also be observed as before.

“As of tomorrow (July 5, 2020), it will be compulsory to wear masks at roofed public places, so services should not be offered to people not wearing masks. This applies to all places where it is obligatory to wear masks. All of us should observe the protocol, and we should all help one another,” he said.

US Had Grudge against Soleimani for His Role in Fighting Terror: Iran

Vice Admiral Ali Shamkhani said General Soleimani laid bare the “true colours” of Washington.

“The United States and the Zionist regime [of Israel]’s malice and grudge against martyred Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani and martyr Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis was due to their unique role in fighting Takfiri terrorism in the region and revealing [the reality of] the United States’ anti-terrorism show,” said Shamkhani, the secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council at a meeting held to follow up on the case pertaining to the assassination of general Soleimani and his companions by the US military in Iraq.

He said the world should not take for granted the struggles and sacrifices by these two commanders in the fight against terrorism as their efforts kept the scourge of Takfiri terrorism from spreading across the world.

Shamkhani also said the assassination of general Soleimani was the United States’ “greatest gift to Takfiri terrorism and its supporters.”

In the meeting, a report was presented on the actions taken to follow up on the case of the assassination of general Soleimani and his companions. Also, decisions were made to expedite the trend of efforts to pursue the matter. The meeting was attended by judicial, political, intelligence and security officials.

Iran Says Not Supposed to Pay Damages to Turkmenistan for Overdue Debts

Iran Says Not Supposed to Pay Damages to Turkmenistan for Overdue Debts

Kasra Nouri, a senior Iranian Oil Ministry official, made the comment with regards to details of an agreement on Turkmenistan’s natural gas exports to Iran and the outcome of arbitration over differences between the two sides.

“During the tenure of the previous [Iranian] administration between 2005 and 2013, Türkmengaz (Turkmenistan’s national gas company) cut off its gas exports to Iran in three phases, causing serious problems for resident in the northern parts of the country,” he said.

“In 2013, Türkmengaz cut off the flow of gas in a bid to receive overdue payments. Finally, it was decided that the National Iranian Gas Company’s debts to Türkmengaz be paid in the form of a loan with interest as stipulated in an addendum to an agreement,” he added.

“The previous administration had agreed to pay its overdue debts at 7.5 percent interest,” which, after discussions, turned into a loan at a five-percent interest rate.
Basically, neither had Türkmengaz requested compensation, nor had the arbiters issued a ruling that would suggest the National Iranian Gas Company would have to pay damages or fines to Turkmenistan, he noted.

“The arbiters simply finalized the debts of the National Iranian Gas Company and issued the Iranian side with an order requiring it to pay its debts to Turkmenistan,” the official underlined.

“In return, part of the National Iranian Gas Company’s demand for compensation over the quality and quantity of the gas delivered by Turkmenistran was accepted, and was accordingly deducted from Iran’s debts to Turkmenistan,” he said.

The official underscored that Iran has always stressed during all negotiations that it owes to Turkmenistan, and that the only reason it has not yet paid its debts is that international and banking conditions have made it impossible to keep up payments on a regular basis.

He said there has not been any conflict between Tehran and Ashgabat, and that the argument mentioned above was just a trade dispute between the two sides.
The official noted that Iran has always sought good economic relations with Turkmenistan.

Disabled Iranian among World's 10 Outstanding Young People

Vahid Rajabloo, who is diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), was tapped by the Junior Chamber International (JCI) to receive the honor due to his outstanding contribution to independent performance by the people with disabilities.

Rajabloo was born into a middle-class family that was eventually forced to give up his treatment due to economic hardship and suffice to just providing him with physiotherapy.

A teacher in programming and web design, he founded Tavanito Technology Company that provides medical, educational, and general services to people with a handicap.

Currently, 14,000 people use the Tavanito platform and the company employs seventeen people full-time.

Mr. Rajabloo himself leads a completely independent lifestyle at his own home.

The JCI encourages young people to join efforts that are geared towards social and economic development, international cooperation, good-will, and understanding.

The non-profit organization that has chapters in around 124 countries produces the list on a yearly basis. Those tapped for the honor are all under 40 years of age — the age bracket that comprises its membership too.

This year’s selection was made after a record 77,206 votes were cast.

“These individuals exemplify the spirit of the JCI Mission and have extraordinary accomplishments regarding individual development, business and entrepreneurship, community action and international cooperation,” the body says.
