The remarks were made by Chairwoman of the Foreign Relations Committee of the French National Assembly Marielle de Sarnez in a meeting with Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Political Affairs Seyyed Abbas Araqchi in Tehran.

In the Saturday meeting, Araqchi and de Sarnez exchanged views on different subjects, including the Iran nuclear deal as well as regional and international issues.

The French parliamentarian stressed that the JCPOA is regarded as progress and a diplomatic success. She said it is important to preserve the Iran nuclear deal and every effort should be made to maintain the agreement.

She also touched upon Iran’s key status in the region and emphasized the necessity of holding talks with Tehran on regional and international issues.

Araqchi, in turn, said, “The economic war launched by the United States against Iranian people is targeting the security and stability of the whole region and has caused tension in the region.”

“The Iran nuclear deal is the only successful diplomacy experience to solve problems in the chaotic West Asia region. By withdrawing from the agreement, the US has jeopardized diplomacy and multilateralism and has subjected this experience to failure,” he said.

Iran Summons UK Ambassador over ‘Unacceptable’ Accusations

Iran Summons French Envoy over Macron’s Anti-Islam Stances

In the Saturday meeting with the British envoy, Iran slammed the UK government for its blind and hasty repetition of the US’ allegations against Iran regarding the tanker attacks.

Assistant Foreign Minister for Europe Mahmoud Barimani expressed Tehran’s strong protest to the British government’s unacceptable anti-Iran stances.

Barimani said the accusations have been levelled without presenting any documents and proof, and are in line with Washington’s policy in that regard.

“In the [closed-door] meeting of the UN Security Council last Thursday, no one but the UK accepted the unsubstantiated accusation levelled by Washington,” said Barimani.

“Even many well-known media outlets rejected the claim by the US and Britain, citing statements by the crew and authorities at the company which owns the tankers,” he said.

The top Iranian official denounced the baseless accusations and expressed Iran’s strong protest in that regard. He demanded an explanation from the British side and called on the UK to rectify its position.

“The popular reactions against Britain emanate from such approaches adopted by this country in support of US officials’ unfounded allegations about different issues, including the issue mentioned above,” he said.

He urged the British government to adopt realistic stances which conform to the realities of the policies adopted by the Islamic Republic of Iran and the need for London to revisit its approach.

The British ambassador, in turn, said he will immediately inform London of Tehran’s stance.

Iran Analyst Advises British Officials to Learn from Blair’s Mistakes

In a tweet on Saturday, Ataollah Mohajerani, a former culture minister and a pro-reform analyst, advised British officials particularly, the Tory leadership frontrunner Boris Johnson, to read once more the memoirs of former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.

“British officials and particularly Johnson who is close more than even to the premiership thanks to Trump’s support should read Blair’s memoirs once more,” he was quoted as saying in a report by Khabar Online website.

“Tony Blair who is also known as B Liar has described his government’s support for Saddam in war on Iran as a strategic mistake by the US and the UK, a destructive mistake,” he noted.

According to Mohajerani, in his memoirs, titled A journey, Blair says he has done what he thought were right but today he wishes he had never committed them.

Blair’s self-penned book is about his tenure as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Published in the UK on 1 September 2010, it covers events from when he became leader of the Labour Party in 1994 and transformed it into “New Labour”, holding power for a party record three successive terms, to his resignation and replacement as Prime Minister by his Chancellor of the Exchequer, Gordon Brown.

Mohajerani’s recommendation came after the UK joined the US to accuse Iran of being behind the recent oil tanker attacks in the Gulf of Oman.

After carrying out its own assessment the UK Foreign Office issued a statement saying, “It is almost certain that a branch of the Iranian military attacked the two tankers on 13 June. No other state or non-state actor could plausibly have been responsible.”
Iran has vehemently denied the accusation as unfounded.

The two sides met on the sidelines of the 5th Summit of the Heads of State of the Conference on Interaction and Confidence Building Measures in Asia (CICA), which was held in the Tajik capital Dushanbe.

During the meeting, the Iranian president stressed that Tehran is interested in expanding its mutual ties with Turkey in all areas particularly in the economic field.

Efforts to strengthen the current cooperation to raise the trade volumes between the two sides to $30bn should be stepped up, he noted, according to a report by dolat.ir.

“Over the past years, long strides have been taken to deepen the two sides’ mutual relations and the trend should be strengthened further,” he said.

President Rouhani then described the regional cooperation between Iran and Turkey as significant and said bilateral relations with Turkey and trilateral relations between Iran, Turkey and Russia in regional areas including the Astana Talks to reconstruct Syria are established in line with strengthening regional peace and security.

For his part, Erdogan said the mutual ties between Iran and Turkey have been expanding day by day and added it is highly significant to strengthen and deepen the current ties in various areas.

“Turkey is determined to expand its ties with Iran in all areas,” he said.

Rouhani made the remarks on Saturday in a meeting with Qatari Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, which was held on the sidelines of the 5th summit of the Conference on Interaction and Confidence Building in Asia (CICA) in the Tajik capital Dushanbe.

In the meeting, Rouhani said bilateral, multilateral and further cooperative consultations are the only ways to reduce differences and resolve regional problems, and the Islamic Republic is always ready to contribute to this objective.

The president noted that expansion of relations with neighbouring and friendly countries, in particular Qatar, is in line with the priorities of the foreign policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

“Stability and security of the countries of the region are interlinked and we are after the rule of moderation, brotherhood, wisdom, and prudence in relations between countries.”

“The Muslim world needs unity and integrity, and the two countries can undoubtedly work together in regarding this,” he added.

Rouhani said the relations between Iran and Qatar are fraternal, friendly and in the interests of the people of the region, noting that there are many capacities to strengthen the economic relations between the two countries which should be used in the interests of Tehran and Doha.

For his part, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani said “Qatar believes that solving all the differences in the region is possible only through dialogue, collective co-operation and use of political resolutions.”

The Qatari Emir also said that Doha is ready to develop ties with Tehran in all areas of interest.

President Rouhani has travelled to Tajikistan to attend the CICA summit – which has gathered together leaders from 27 countries in the grouping and 13 observer states and international institutions.

The two sides discussed the latest developments of the Iran nuclear deal and the implementation of the EU’s initiative to save the deal known as the Instrument in Support of Trade Exchanges (INSTEX).

They also conferred on the US sanctions against the Islamic Republic, and the EU’s efforts to help Tehran reap the benefits of the JCPOA.

Back on Wednesday, before starting her visit to Tehran, Schmid described the Iran nuclear deal as “the key to the Middle East’s security and stability” and said during her stay in Tehran she would hold talks with Iranian officials on the latest developments of the JCPOA as well as the implementation of the INSTEX.

She arrived in Tehran as the fourth leg of her regional tour which took her to the UAE, Oman and Qatar.

“I will discuss the implementation of the JCPOA as well as the INSTEX with the aim of preparing the ground for normalizing our economic ties with Iran,” she noted before arriving in Tehran.

Following the US unilateral withdrawal from the Iran nuclear deal back in May 2018, the future of the multinational deal has been cast in doubt.

Iran had called on the remaining signatories of the deal to take some concrete measures after one year so that the Islamic Republic could benefit from its economic share under the JCPOA. To this end, Iran has given them a two-month deadline, saying if no measure is adopted, it would scale back its commitments under the deal.

Project manager Farshid Allahyari says the company began its activities in the domain of producing orthopedic prostheses in 2007.

“The raw materials for these prostheses are imported from Germany, but the entire process of design and production takes place at this company,” he told ISNA.

He said the products are made of stainless steel and titanium which are compatible with the human body.

“The orthopedic items produced have high quality. Moreover, we have managed to receive the CE certificate, and we are the only exporter of these products in the country,” he noted.

“The orthopedic products include different types of plaques, nails and screws, which can be used to treat various kinds of traumas and cracks in the arm, shin, pelvis, wrist and fingers,” he said.

He noted the products are under insurance coverage.

“At the moment, more than 200 medical centres in the country are using these products,” said Allahyari.

He also touched upon the export of the products.

“Countries in Southeast Asia and the Middle East, including Iraq, Syria and Lebanon as well as France, Italy and Germany have been among our target markets,” he said.

“We managed to export the products with the support of Innovation and Development Fund,” he noted.

According to the senior researcher, the company has opened representative offices in Sweden and Germany.

The 150-year-old house has been built on a 700sqm land in the southern Pamenar neighbourhood of the capital city.

According to historical documents, the house dates back to the last years of Qajar dynasty. It belonged to Sultan Beigom Shojaee the wife of Mohammad Reza Shoja ul-Mamalek, a royal musketeer during Qajar dynasty.

The yard of the house resembles a small garden. It has been built 15 steps lower that the level of the alley in which it is located. There is a rectangular pond at the yard’s centre. It is besieged from three sides with buildings with brick view and wooden windows.

The wind-catchers of the building stand above the Mirror Hall at the centre of the western building. The mirrors and the gypsum walls are covered by paintings inspired by some European images. Meanwhile, the paintings behind the glasses as well as the ceilings are painted in a way that give the impression of wooden frames. The wooden doors also reveal the perfect aesthetics of the architect.

But the most exciting part of the house is its library which is home to over 6,000 books with various themes from history to architecture, tourism and so on.

As certified by International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) the house has been named as one of the top 1001 beautiful libraries in the world due to its closeness to the Mirror Hall.

Foreign Powers Turn Mideast into World’s Most Unstable Region: Rouhani

Rouhani made the comments in a Saturday address to the 5th summit of Conference on Interaction and Confidence-Building Measures in Asia (CICA) which is underway in the Tajik capital Dushanbe.

“The interference of some foreign powers in the internal affairs of the countries of the Middle East region, forceful unilateral policies, terrorism and extremism, their blatant breach of promises and lawlessness in matters related to international peace and security, including the important nuclear deal with Iran, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), have made our region one of the world’s most instable regions,” he noted.

Iran’s president underlined that his country’s foreign policy is based on cooperation, win-win approach and expressed Iran’s preparedness to draft bilateral, multilateral political, security mechanisms.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran is looking for the values ​​that Your Excellencies have seen during the last four decades in our foreign policy, including the fight against terrorism and extremism, which present a harsh and violent image of Islam, sheltering innocent people who have been grappling with war and its resulting disasters, fighting unilateralism by which a country tries to dominate others with material power and the use of force, explicit opposition to the production of any weapons of mass destruction from nuclear to chemical, and ultimately, constructive interaction with all countries that believe in these values,” he said.

President Rouhani also referred to the ongoing situation in Palestine, Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan and Yemen as the result of the US regional policy.

He then said Iran can’t remain committed to its pledges under the Iran nuclear deal unilaterally and that the remaining sides of the nuclear deal should play their role to preserve the accord.

“Obviously, Iran cannot stick to this agreement unilaterally. It is necessary that all sides of this agreement contribute to restoring it,” He said and added Iran needs to see positive signals from other sides of the deal.

President Rouhani arrived in Dushanbe from Bishkek after taking part in the 19th summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization. On the sidelines of the summit, he held talks with a number of leaders of the member states participating in the talks.
