Iran Takes Presidency of Asian Branch of OPCW

OPCW

Iran’s Ambassador and Permanent Representative to OPCW Alireza Jahangiri was selected unanimously as the new head of the group in a meeting of the Asian branch of the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) held on Monday.

Pakistan chaired the Asian branch of the OPCW from 2004-2017.

While electing the Islamic Republic as the new head of the group, all Asian and Arab member states affirmed Iran as the best choice for the position, and deemed the country’s presidency of Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) an appropriate experience of Tehran’s interactions with other countries aimed at advancing the objectives of the Asian OPCW member states, Mehr reported.

Formed in 1997 and located in The Hague, Netherlands, the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons aims to implement the provisions of the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) in order to achieve the OPCW’s vision of a world that is free of chemical weapons and of the threat of their use. As of today OPCW has 192 Member States.

Iran Denounces US Veep’s Belligerent Remarks

When it comes to defense, Iran forges ahead with whatever plan it deems necessary to protect its interests regardless of what others may think or recommend, Bahram Qassemi said Monday, underscoring that foreigners have neither a right nor permission to comment on Iran’s defense programs.

His comments at a press conference in Tehran came after US Vice President Mike Pence warned Iran “not to test the resolve” of Donald Trump’s administration, a few days after Washington imposed new sanctions against Iran for a missile test.

In reaction, Qassemi said that history, particularly the experience of an Iraqi-imposed war in the 1980s, has taught Iran not to look for help from other countries.

“We do not use defense issues as a tool to send signals, but do our job on schedule,” the spokesman added, making it clear that the recent missile test was not meant as a signal to the US administration.

“There is no need to test Mr Trump,” he said in response to Pence.

Qassemi further condemned the recent “unfair and wrong” US move to slap new sanctions on Iran, saying reciprocal actions are being weighed to blacklist certain American individuals and institutions who have assisted Takfiri terrorist groups like Daesh (ISIL).

Iran’s list of Americans to be put under sanctions will be released soon, he added.

Last week, the US added 13 Iranian figures and 12 entities to its anti-Iran sanction for the missile test.

Iran’s Foreign Ministry has announced in a statement that Iran is entitled to boost its defense capabilities, including missiles, under the international law and the UN Charter, making it clear that the Iranian missiles, designed for defensive programs and carrying conventional weapons, will be used only for defense.

Salehi - Iran nuclear chief

The head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) Ali Akbar Salehi made the announcement during a press conference held in the Iranian holy city of Qom on Monday.

Iran and the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council — the United States, France, Britain, Russia and China — plus Germany started implementing the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) on January 16, 2016.

Under the agreement, Iran accepted to put limitations on its program in exchange for the removal of nuclear-related sanctions imposed against Tehran.

Salehi also warned that if any of the parties to the nuclear accord violates its terms, Iran will boost its uranium enrichment by over ten fold.

“Before the JCPOA, our enrichment capacity was at 9,000 Separative work units (SWU) and we had 10,000 SWUs which were not operational. We can in a year and a half increase the 9,000 active SWU’s to 100,000 active SWUs,” he said.

He also noted that the last part of the 149-ton shipment of natural uranium will be arriving in Tehran on Tuesday.

Referring to reports that former US President Barack Obama said that the JCPOA closed down Iran’s nuclear activities, Salehi noted that these were nothing but false claims.

Iranian FM Confers with UN Envoy on Latest Iraq Developments

Iran’s FM, UN Envoy Discuss Iraq Developments

During the meeting in Tehran on Monday, the two sides exchanged views on ways to advance political process and national dialogue in the Arab country.

Zarif and Kubish also discussed military developments in ongoing fight against Daesh (also known as ISIL or ISIS) terrorists, the condition of the recently freed regions and the necessity to provide help for boosting Iraq’s stability and security.

Iraq has been facing the growing threat of terrorism, mainly posed by Daesh terrorist group.

Daesh militants made swift advances in much of northern and western Iraq over the summer 2014, after capturing large swaths of northern Syria.

However, a combination of concentrated attacks by the Iraqi military and the volunteer forces, who rushed to take arms after top Iraqi cleric Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani issued a fatwa calling for fight against the militants, have blunted the edge of Daesh offensive.

Amid tensions in Iraq, Iran is known as the first country to help the Arab country and has always voiced support for Iraq’s solidarity and prosperity.

Iran Offers Help to Afghanistan after Deadly Avalanches

Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Bahram Qassemi on Monday expressed sympathy with the Afghan government and nation over the death of people hit by cold spell.

At least 119 people lost their lives following avalanches in Afghanistan triggered by heavy snowfall across the country in recent days.

Afghanistan’s state minister for disaster management and humanitarian affairs Wais Ahmad Barmak said that at least 89 people had also been injured and 190 homes destroyed by avalanches in multiple provinces.

Those figures were expected to rise as rescue teams made their way through isolated snow-blocked roads to afflicted areas where it is feared more people are trapped beneath the snow.

The Afghan government, on Sunday, declared a public holiday due to the heavy snowfall across the country.

Last month, heavy snowfall and freezing cold claimed the lives of 27 children, all under the age of five, in the remote district of Darzab in the northern province of Jawzjan.

Back in 2015, some 300 people lost their lives after they were buried under avalanches across the Asian country, most of them in the eastern mountainous province of Panjshir, north of the capital, Kabul.

Each winter, heavy snowfall and avalanches kill scores of people in Afghanistan, where inadequate emergency equipment does not match the scope of natural disasters.

Unbelievable but True: One Person Develops Diabetes Every 5 Seconds

Diabetes statistics

Sugar or glucose is the most important source of energy for the cells in human body. If the level of glucose in one’s blood decreases, it can lead to a loss of consciousness, coma, and finally death in a few hours. However, the excessive increase of glucose in human body is more common. The excess glucose in the blood should be rapidly turned to glycogen through the secretion of a hormone called insulin. If a person’s body loses the ability to regulate the amount of blood sugar, that person suffers from diabetes.

Every 30 seconds, a leg is amputated due to diabetes.

Diabetes is the most costly endocrine disease in the world.

Diabetes is the costliest gland disorder in the world to treat.

According to global statistics, about 346 million people suffer from diabetes worldwide.

Every 10 seconds, two people develop diabetes in the world.

Diabetes kills one person in the world every 8 seconds.

Diabetic ulcer is the main cause of one million amputations per annum worldwide. This means one leg is lost every 30 seconds.

On the whole, 90 percent of the patients suffering from diabetes, have diabetes mellitus type 2.

A total of 50 percent of the people suffering from diabetes are ignorant of their disorder and do not know they have developed it.

Some 80 percent of the deaths and limb amputations caused by diabetes across the world, take place in low and middle-income countries.

According to the World Health Organization’s forecast, the number of people suffering from diabetes will double by 2030.

China and India rank first and second worldwide, respectively, in terms of having the largest number of patients suffering from diabetes.

Cardiovascular diseases are the main cause of 50 percent of the deaths in patients suffering from diabetes.

After 15 years of having the disorder, 2 percent of the patients lose their eyesight and 10 percent suffer from eye problems.

About 10 percent-20 percent of the patients suffering from diabetes die from renal (kidney) diseases.

A total of 50 percent of the people suffering from diabetes develop neurological disorders.

At present, some 4 million people in Iran suffer from diabetes. This is while, half of them are ignorant of their disease – do not know they have developed it.

The average age of diabetes mellitus type 2 diagnosis in the world is between 55 and 65; whereas, it ranges between 45 and 50 in Iran.

Thus, on average, Iranians are diagnosed with diabetes, 10-15 years younger than the people in developed countries.

The treatment cost of diabetes mellitus type 1, after it causes damages to the body, is 12 times higher than the expenses involved in treating the same type of the disorder before it inflicts any damages on the body.

Likewise, the treatment cost of diabetes mellitus type 2, after it causes damages to the body, is 24 times higher than the expenses involved in treating the same type of the disorder before it inflicts any damages on the body.

Latest studies have shown that 7.8 percent of Iran’s population, aged between 25 and 60, are suffering from diabetes.

Diabetes is the leading cause of visual impairment and blindness in Iran.

Mystic Dance in Ancient Iranian Mid-Winter Ceremony

Pir Shalyar

Ouraman Takht, a small town with a population of 2,000, lies near the city of Sarvabad in Iran’s Kordestan Province. It is known for its history, and for its Pir Shalyar ceremonies.

Ouraman seems to be as old as time itself – documented sources show it dates back to more than 1,300 years ago.

Based on locals’ claims, the ceremony has been performed for nearly 900 years. Every year in February, on the last Wednesday before the half-moon, the marriage of Pir Shalyar is re-enacted.

This ceremony is one of the oldest traditional celebrations in Iran, and has its roots in mythological beliefs and ancient religions.

In the legends of the Ouraman people, there was a mythical character called Pir Shalyar, who had achieved special abilities through spiritual greatness. One of these, as told in a legend, was him curing Shah Bahar Khatun, the daughter of the king of Bukhara.

Attending the ancient ceremony is of great significance, and many tourists from Iran and abroad make their way to the city each year. Domestic and international photographers are on hand to capture the event.

The ceremony includes the sacrificing of sheep, playing the daf [a tambourine-like drum], special dancing, eating Ash [a traditional stew], then reading poetry and praying during an overnight vigil.

Here are Mehr’s photos of this year’s ceremony:

Iran to Defeat US in Int’l Lawsuit Filed at ICJ

Reading of ICJ Advisory Opinion upon IFAD’s request , on 1 February 2012 / Lecture de l’avis consultatif de la Cour sur la demande du FIDA, le 1er février 2012

Iranian lawmaker Hossein Naqavi Hosseini elaborated on the dimensions of Iran’s lawsuit against Washington in a Farsi interview with ICANA.

Iran’s case against the White House has been filed at the Hague-based International Court of Justice (ICJ), said Naqavi Hosseini, a spokesman for the Parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission.

He said Washington’s seizure of $2 billion worth of Iranian assets runs counter to the United States’ international obligations and contravenes Tehran-Washington political agreements.

The legislator noted that when a political accord such as the nuclear deal between Iran and six world powers, which include the US, is signed, the Western states are expected to give up their hostile behaviour.

However, he added, Washington seized Iran’s assets in violation of the deal.

The US withdrawal of $2 billion in Iranian assets can be pursued through legal and political channels, and that is why Iran filed a lawsuit with the International Court of Justice against the US.

He said the US will indubitably be found guilty in the case if The Hague adopts an independent approach.

Based on the lawsuit, Iran has demanded compensation from the US over its non-compliance with its commitments. This is very important because US actions have created problems for Iran, he added.

The registration of Iran’s lawsuit against the US at the International Court of Justice was yet another key step toward returning Iran’s assets.
