Nuclear Deal Has Nothing to Do with Iran’s Defence Issues: IRGC Commander

Brigadier General Masoud Jazayeri

“There is no connection between the JCPOA and the country’s defense affairs and, basically, the (Iranian) defense issue was not raised in the nuclear negotiations,” Brigadier General Masoud Jazayeri said on Monday, referring to the nuclear talks between Tehran and the Group 5+1 (Russia, China, US, Britain, France, and Germany) that led to the JCPOA.

Iranian officials and members of the country’s negotiating team paid attention to the issue (that there should be no links between defense topics and the JCPOA) and let the other parties to the negotiations know it as well, the commander said.

He further emphasized that at a time when evil governments pose threats against Iran, the country has no option but to boost its defense capabilities.

Iranian officials have repeatedly said that issues relating to defense of Iran’s people and territorial integrity have nothing to do with the nuclear deal reached between Tehran and the Group 5+1.

Iran has also underscored frequently that its military might poses no threat to other countries and that the Islamic Republic’s defense doctrine is entirely based on deterrence.

Female Iranian Governor Wears Traditional Costume

Homeyra Rigi“I was appointed as the first female prefect in this province in 2001,” said Homeyra Rigi, the current Governor of Qasr-e Qand in Sistan and Baluchestan.

She wears the local clothes of this region, decorated with needlework, in her office, as well as in formal meetings.

“Then I became the head of Welfare office of the province. Now I have been serving as the Governor of Qasr-e Qand for three years. In all these positions, I have always worn the local costume of my province, which is considered as the formal way of dressing by the people of region.”

“We offer as a gift the local costume of Sistan and Baluchestan to our visitors as a good way to present an Iranian region to them,” she added, according to a Farsi report by ISNA.

“I was one of these people, and I want to inspire local women and girls’ confidence to believe in their capacities by seeing another woman serving as people’s representative,” Rigi noted.

“It was an effective move; as when I entered the meetings in local costume, no one could say that our women have no opportunity for progress.”

“During a visit to Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province, I participated in a festival alongside the people and officials of this province. Initially wearing the local costume of Sistan and Baluchestan, I changed my outfit to the local clothing of Bakhtiari in the middle of ceremony to respect the customs of this region and the fact that Iran is formed by members of different subcultures who live together under a unique country flag.”

Iran’s President Voices Iran’s Support for Promotion of Peace in Balkans

“Tehran is ready to cooperate with different countries, including Albania, to fight terrorism,” Rouhani said in a meeting with Albanian Foreign Minister Ditmir Bushati in Tehran on Sunday.

The Iranian president stressed the importance of making collective efforts to fight violence, extremism and terrorism, noting, “Terrorism is a global issue and battling against violence, particularly terrorism, is one of our main duties.”

 

He further stated that the implementation of last year’s nuclear agreement between the Islamic Republic and the P5+1 group of countries has created a favorable opportunity for the expansion of Iran-Albania ties in all sectors, particularly in economy and trade.

Rouhani said Tehran welcomes further bolstering of relations with Tirana, which would be beneficial to both sides.

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 nuclear deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), in January 2016.

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

The Albanian foreign minister, for his part, said the JCPOA opened a new chapter in Iran’s cooperation with different countries, including Albania.

Bushati expressed his country’s determination to promote political, economic, trade and cultural cooperation with Iran.

He also stressed the importance of fighting terrorism, extremism and violence in a unified manner.

Earlier on Sunday, Bushati held talks with Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif. At the end of the meeting, both parties signed a memorandum of understanding to hold regular political talks.

Child Refugees at Risk of Freezing to Death on Europe’s Doorstep

Many of the refugees, some of whom are as young as eight or nine, have no gloves or proper shoes, according to Save the Children charity.

It said several refugees have already come down with frostbite.

An estimated 2,000 refugees in Belgrade, Serbia, are struggling to survive in the bitter cold in makeshift shelters with no running water or sanitation.

“The EU’s continued failure on the refugee crisis is leaving thousands of people, including lone children, literally out in the cold,” Kirsty McNeill, Save the Children’s campaigns director, said.

“The lack of political will to offer asylum or reunify separated children and families, means these human beings, who have survived years of war, violence and deadly journeys to safety – are now freezing to death on Europe’s doorstep.

“These men, women and children need immediate access to warm, dry shelter, no matter what country they’ve fled…it is clear the EU’s policy has failed and there is a total inability to plan ahead.”

Serbia lies on the so-called Balkans Route, which has been used by hundreds of thousands of migrants and refugees to enter Europe.

According to Save the Children, up to a hundred migrants and refugees enter Serbia every day, with many heading to Belgrade, where the charity has set up an aid hub.

Though Serbia has not yet joined the EU, it borders with several EU members which have closed their borders to refugees, such as Hungary and Bulgaria.

As a result, aid workers say the country is becoming a “dumping ground” for migrants who are unable to move on towards central Europe.

“We are deeply worried at the situation of refugees and migrants faced with harsh winter conditions across Europe,” the UN’s refugee agency said earlier this week, Daily Telegraph reported.

“We have stepped up our assistance in several countries, including Greece and Serbia. Saving lives must be a priority and we urge States authorities across Europe to do more to assist and protect refugees and migrants.”

Some refugees and migrants have reported being assaulted by police on the Balkans route, and others say they have been robbed of crucial warm clothing.

Egyptians Celebrating Rejection of Plan to Transfer Red Sea Islands to Saudi Arabia

Egyptians Celebrating

Egyptians CelebratingCelebrations erupted as the judge gave the verdict confirming Egyptian sovereignty over Tiran and Sanafir, saying the government had failed to provide evidence that the islands were Saudi.

The deal to transfer the islands, announced in April, caused public uproar and protests by Egyptians, who believe Tiran and Sanafir belong to their country. It also fed into discontent over the country’s economic crisis.

Ali Ayoub, who helped bring the original case against the government, responded with jubilation to Monday’s ruling. “The ruling is final and cannot be subject to appeal, [even] the parliament doesn’t have the right to discuss this agreement, because it’s been made null and void by a court ruling,” he said, surrounded by supporters chanting: “Egyptian, Egyptian, Egyptian.”

Tiran and Sanafir are situated in the narrow entrance to the Gulf of Aqaba leading to Jordan and Israel. Saudi and Egyptian officials say they belong to Saudi Arabia and have been under Egyptian control only because Riyadh asked Cairo in 1950 to protect them.

The controversy over the islands has become a source of tension with Saudi Arabia, which has provided Egypt with billions of dollars of aid but recently halted fuel shipments as relations deteriorated, The Guardian reported.

Monday’s blow to the government was also a moment of national pride for many of those reacting to the verdict.

“It is being debated publicly at home and does not belong within international fora at this moment in time. It’s inappropriate,” Kerry told reporters after a meeting of 70 countries on ending the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

A communique from the one-day meeting on Sunday reaffirmed that only a two-state solution between Israelis and Palestinians could resolve the conflict and warned that they would not recognize any unilateral steps taken by either side that could prejudge negotiations, Reuters reported.
