Mansour Gholami said Iran also ranks eighth in the field of bio-technology.

In a meeting with Grand Ayatollah Nasser Makarem Shirazi in the holy city of Qom, Gholami also noted that Iran has achieved the total science rank of 16 in the world.

Nanoscience and nanotechnology are the study and application of extremely small things and can be used across all the other science fields, such as chemistry, biology, physics, materials science, and engineering.

Nano-technology is hailed as having the potential to increase the efficiency of energy consumption, help clean the environment, and solve major health problems.

It is said to be able to massively increase manufacturing production at significantly reduced costs. Nano-tech advocates claim that products of nanotechnology will be smaller, cheaper, lighter yet more functional and require less energy and fewer raw materials to manufacture.

Selling Oil Today More Difficult than in Wartime: Iran

Zanganeh said at that time the only problem was that Saddam Hussein was targeting the country’s facilities, but Tehran could receive its money.

However, he added, at the moment the process is hard and the Islamic Republic cannot export oil under the name of Iran.

“The United States has not spared any effort against the Iranian nation,” underlined the Iranian minister.

“The situation is very difficult, but as there’s no smoke, fire and blood it does not feel like war. Despite this, we are working hard to overcome these difficulties,” maintained Zanganeh.

He further mentioned that if the domestic problems are solved, foreign and international issues can be resolved as well.

According to many, the US sanctions against the Islamic Republic are brutal.

While the bans have failed to advance the US goal of changing “Iran’s behaviour”, they have provoked growing tensions with Washington’s trading partners across the world and inflicted terrible pain on the ordinary people of Iran.

Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council Ali Shamkhani and Hamdullah Mohib, the National Security Advisor to Afghanistan’s president, met in the Russian city of Ufa on Wednesday.

The meeting was held on the sidelines of the 10th International Meeting of High Representatives for Security Issues in Ufa, the capital of the Republic of Bashkortostan.

Shamkhani and Mohib both emphasized the necessity for closer coordination and consultations between the Kabul government and the neighbors of Afghanistan in order to counter terrorism and contribute to the process of national reconciliation in Afghanistan.

They also stressed the need for contacts and communication between the region’s influential countries and the Afghan opposition groups in coordination with the government of Afghanistan.

The two officials also discussed plans to strengthen the Afghan military forces for establishing sustainable security in all parts of Afghanistan.

Heading a delegation, Shamkhani has attend the summit of security officials in Ufa at the invitation of his Russian counterpart Nikolai Patrushev.

The senior Iranian official delivered a speech to the forum on Tuesday.

Delegations from around 120 world nations have taken part in gathering. The forum has been held regularly by the Russian Security Council in one of the cities of Russia each year.

The meetings have been previously held in the cities of Yekaterinburg, St. Petersburg, Vladivostok, Kazan, Ulan-Ude, Grozny, the Tver region, and twice in Sochi. Last year’s conference in Sochi was attended by delegates from 118 countries and three delegations from the UN bodies.

IRGC Chief Rejects US’ ‘Lies’ about Oil Tanker Attacks

He said the Americans are not able to make the right decisions politically, and this is the reason for their failure.

“They were supposed to create a submissive political system in Iraq, but what did they accomplish?” he said in a Wednesday interview with the Young Journalists’ Club (YJC).

“Today, they have to come to Iraq at night. Why do they come to the Middle East only at nights? We see the demolition of US politics in West Asia. They are worried and wandering and cannot protect the Zionist regime.”

Two tankers were attacked at the Oman Sea last week. One of them was heading to Taiwan from Qatar and the second was going to Singapore from Saudi Arabia.

Washington has accused Iran of blowing holes in the vessels with mines, but Iran has denied the allegations.

 

Saudi Arabia Halts Umrah Visa Services

Saudi sources quoted the kingdom’s Ministry of Hajj and Umra as announcing on Tuesday that it has halted visa services for the Umrah pilgrims.

The Saudi ministry has not mentioned any reason for the new decision.

The Umrah is a pilgrimage to Mecca performed by Muslims. Unlike the Hajj, which is also known as the “major Hajj pilgrimage”, it can be undertaken at any time of the year.

In 2016, more than 1.8 million pilgrims attended Hajj, but Iranians stayed at home after tensions between Riyadh and Tehran boiled over following a deadly crush of people during the 2015 pilgrimage.

On September 2, 2015, thousands of people lost their lives in the deadly crush after Saudi authorities blocked a road in Mina during a ritual, forcing large crowds of pilgrims to collide.

The crush marked the deadliest incident in the history of the pilgrimage.

Saudi Arabia claims nearly 770 people were killed, but officials at Iran’s Hajj and Pilgrimage Organization say about 4,700 people, including over 460 Iranian pilgrims, lost their lives.

Talks with US to End Up with Surrender, IRGC Chief Warns

“Our resistance is based on logic, because there is war, loss of power and surrender behind the logic of negotiations,” Major General Hossein Salami said in an address to an academic gathering in Tehran on Tuesday.

“We are close to victory, and our only solution is resistance in accordance with our national and revolutionary expediency,” the commander noted.

Iran has effectively foiled the enemy’s plans for military action, the general stressed, warning that the adversaries insist on negotiations in order to impair Iran’s deterrent power.

Diplomacy without power is meaningless, the general added, stating that backing off from resistance would encourage the enemy to intensify the pressure of sanctions.

“The enemy’s greatest wish is to dismantle part of our defence power,” he went on to say.

“Today, the US is not able to make correct political choices and its mechanism of turning the military power into political power has broken down,” he concluded.

In comments last week, Leader of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei highlighted the necessity for strong resistance in confrontation with the enemies, stressing that the Islamic Republic will keep making progress provided that the US does not come any close to Iran.

The Leader also described the ultimate goal of resistance as reaching the “deterrence point” in the economic, political, social and military spheres.

Deterrent power dissuades the enemy from aggression against Iran in all arenas, the Leader noted, saying Iran has already reached the deterrent point in the military field.

The enemies have focused on Iran’s missile power, because they know that Tehran has gained the deterrent power in this area and seek to deprive the Islamic Republic of such capability, “but they will never be able to do that,” Ayatollah Khamenei underscored.

Iran Urges Regional Coordination for Talks with Taliban

In an address to a 6-party meeting of high-ranking security officials in the Russian city of Ufa on Tuesday, Shamkhani stressed the need for a concerted approach among the neighbours of Afghanistan for talks with the Taliban, in coordination with the Afghan government.

The meeting was attended by top security officials from Iran, Russia, China, India, Pakistan and Afghanistan.

Shamkhani also offered Iran’s proposals for the structure, time, agenda, and mechanisms of effectual activities by the neighbours of Afghanistan for the establishment of national reconciliation in that country.

“It is necessary for the neighbours of Afghanistan to increase contacts and connections with the Afghan opposition in coordination with the country’s legitimate government, and also to restrict the possibility of interference from the extra-regional states in that country’s crisis,” he added.

Shamkhani also voiced concern about growing political gaps in Afghanistan, urging constant cooperation among the neighbours of Afghanistan in order to “strengthen the legal structures” on the basis of public votes and collective partnership.

Shamkhani has travelled to Ufa to take part in the 10th International Meeting of High Representatives for Security Issues at the invitation of his Russian counterpart, Nikolai Patrushev.

The forum has been held regularly by the Russian Security Council in one of the cities of Russia each year. The meetings have been previously held in the cities of Yekaterinburg, St. Petersburg, Vladivostok, Kazan, Ulan-Ude, Grozny, the Tver region, and twice in Sochi.

Last year’s conference in Sochi was attended by delegates from 118 countries and three delegations from the UN bodies.

Iran Is the One Preserving Regional Security: First VP

Jahangiri said the recent oil tanker attacks were carried out after Iran withdrew its forces from the Persian Gulf for a short while.

“As far as Iran was present in the region, no one dared to undermine the security in the Persian Gulf or the Sea of Oman and the recent attacks were carried out while Iran was not present in the region,” he was quoted as saying in a report by dolat.ir.

He added it is falsely believed that this is Saudi Arabia or the UAE or Bahrain which provide the region’s security but “in fact this is Iran which is behind even these countries’ security.”

He then referred to the US call for talks with Iran and said the main question is how and on what issues, they should sit for talks.” Even if we make an agreement, there is no guarantee that the American side won’t violate it once again.”

Jahangiri said Iran has always called for talks based on mutual respect and within a logical framework and added “if you hold talks with Iran based on respect, your problems would be resolved soon but we don’t allow you to talk with the language of threat, disrespect and violation with a nation that has such a long history like Iran.”

The US and its allies accused Iran of carrying out the recent attacks on two oil tankers in the Sea of Oman. Iran has vehemently denied the accusations and called the attacks “suspicious”.

Iran, Iraq Discuss Expansion of Regional Cooperation

During the Tuesday meeting, the two officials discussed the deep-rooted mutual ties between the two nations of Iran and Iraq as well as the significant agreements the two sides have signed in economic areas.

They also exchanged views on the facilities provided for Iranian and Iraqi people for reciprocal visits and the two sides’ support for each other amid harsh conditions.

Zarif and al-Haddad further conferred on the role of Iran-Iraq cooperation in preserving regional peace and stability and the latest regional developments.

Back in April, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said Iran and Iraq are keen to expand their cooperation in the fight against terrorism and smuggling while seeking stronger ties in the power, gas and oil sectors.

“Border cooperation to fight terrorism, narcotics and smuggling will become stronger between the two countries,” Rouhani said at a joint press conference with Iraqi Prime Minister Adel Abdul-Mahdi in Tehran on April 6.

The Iraqi prime minister, for his part, said Iran had played a leading role in the fight against terrorism and the promotion of peace and stability in Iraq and called for further development of mutual relations.
