Iran; Elder Brother of Kurds, Iraqi Shiites

In a Farsi article in the Shargh daily newspaper on Wednesday, Bahram Valadbeygi, the director of Culture Institute of Kurdistan-Tehran, wrote that the authorities of the Islamic Republic of Iran must consider the future developments of the region intelligently and with a historical approach in order to ensure the national security of Iran and at the same time respect the public opinion of Kurdish people in the Middle East, especially the Iranian Kurdish compatriots.

“The historical bonds between Iran, Kurds and Iraqi Shiites must not be forgotten,” he added.

“Iran should turn the recent developments in Kurdistan from a threat into an opportunity and not allow traditional rivals of Iran such as Saudi Arabia and Turkey and enemies like the United States and Israel to play a more prominent role in the future of Kurdistan. The Middle East with its current crises and developments needs more convergence between Baghdad, Tehran and Erbil.”

Deregulation; Best Way to Save Iran’s Economy

Iranian economy

Amir Hossein Khaleqi, a PhD holder in Policy-Making from the University of Tehran, has said in an article in the Donya-e-Eqtesad daily newspaper on Wednesday that the three important factors that make doing business harder for businessmen are ‘financial difficulties’, ‘inefficient government bureaucracy’, and ‘lack of stability in policies.’

“The fundamental problem should be sought in the legal structures and numerous regulations and procedures. It can be seen in the competitiveness report that Iran, on the one hand, interacts with other countries of the world with a ‘system of inefficient tariffs’, ‘numerous barriers to foreign trade and direct investment’, as well as ‘the absence of foreign companies in the country’.

On the other hand, there is no proper legal framework for ‘assuring investors, especially the microfinance shareholders’, “corporate governance mechanisms’, and ‘accredited reporting and auditing procedures’.”

“The same shortcomings can also be proposed to improve competitiveness for the country’s economic development. The Iranian economy does not need many regulations and licenses, what it needs is a minimum of good rules. We should allow good rules replace discretionary orders and bureaucracies of the government.”

“These rules are also for ordering and better functioning of the people involved with the economy. These rules does not originate from the opinion of governments, but instead originate from science, collective wisdom and the experience of the experts. Interacting with the world and opening up the economy to the world is a direction that may require more than anything else the consensus of the politicians,” the articles reads.

Iran Invents Device to Produce Water Out of Air Moisture

A statement by the Atomic Energy Organization’s Public Relations Department says “the device, an initiative by the AEOI Chief Ali Akbar Salehi, was designed and produced by the organization’s Atomic Science and Technologies Research Centre at the laboratory scale with a capacity to produce between half a litre to two litres of drinking water per day given the moisture density of the weather.”

“Our researchers have studied effective parameters for optimizing and expanding the scale of the device’s production and the device is expected to become operational at a high capacity in the near future,” the statement added, as cited in a Farsi report by the Mehr News Agency.

Thermo-electronic cooling is one of the main methods for reducing the temperature of the moisture to Dew Point. The device is designed in a way to work in low temperature for a long period of time. Meanwhile, it is equipped with a heat influx which leads heat from one side to another.

Using the latest technologies is one of the main ways to cope with the current water shortage across the globe. The initiative to design new devices to produce water out of air moisture has been raised and discussed in recent years. Such devices are generally called water production generators. Designed based on Dew point, the devices are used in various countries.

Many countries are suffering from lack of access to fresh water and Iran is no exception. Only 15 percent of Iran’s territory has green plant. Official figures have sounded the alarm for Iran saying the country is suffering from devastating drought.

To this end, exploring new ways to cope with the natural disasters like drought is highly significant.

Top Officers of Iran, Iraq Meet amid Kurdish Referendum

Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Major General Mohammad Baqeri on Wednesday received his Iraqi counterpart Major General Othman al-Ghanmi, who arrived in Tehran at the head of a military delegation earlier in the day.

The issue of terrorism, the Kurdish independence vote and matters of mutual interest were among the major topics discussed in the meeting between the top military officials.

During the meeting, Baqeri hailed the latest achievements gained by the Iraqi army in the fight against terrorists.

“We are so pleased that the Iraqi nation and army have made great gains in the battle against terrorists and have crushed the Takfiris,” he said.

The Iraq official, for his part, said that Iraq was targeted by Takfiri terrorism, adding, however, that most of the territories held by Takfiri militants had been liberated.

He reiterated that Iraq would continue its fight against terrorism until the ultimate defeat of the terrorists.

Ghanmi also praised Iran’s full support for Iraq, particularly in hard times.

Separately on Wednesday, Baqeri met with senior military and political officials from Turkey, during which the two sides discussed a variety of issues, including the Kurdish referendum in Iraq.

Baqeri told reporters after the meeting that both the Iranian and Turkish sides were concerned that the Kurdish vote in Iraq could lead to tensions in the Arab country, the repercussions of which could haunt regional countries.

Top Officers of Iran, Iraq Meet amid Kurdish Referendum

A statement from the Iraqi military said earlier that the top ranking delegation from Iraq’s armed forces would visit Iran on Wednesday “to coordinate military efforts” without giving further details.

Ghanmi also visited neighboring Turkey, where he met with his Turkish counterpart, General Hulusi Akar, on Saturday, two days before the Kurdish referendum, the Turkish military said.

It added that two sides discussed the Kurdish referendum and stressed the importance of maintaining Iraq’s territorial integrity.

Regional powers, including Iran and Turkey, have opposed the Kurdish referendum in Iraq, warning that the controversial vote could lead to further instability in the entire Middle East, a region already ravaged with numerous conflicts and terror threats.

The European Union has also expressed concern about the vote, describing it as “counterproductive.”

The central government in Baghdad has also rejected the vote.

Despite international criticism, the Kurdish plebiscite took place on September 25.

Official results showed 92.73 percent of voters backed the secession in Monday’s non-binding referendum. Turnout was put at 72.61 percent.
