Iran, Airbus to jointly produce plane parts

Airbus

Manouchehr Manteqi, a top official from the Science and Technology Directorate of Iran’s Presidential Office, was quoted by the domestic media as saying that talks with Airbus over the scheme had already been concluded.

“Production of spare parts may be the most important component of the aviation industry,” Manteqi, who is the secretary of the Knowledge-Based Aviation Industries Development Center of the Directorate, was quoted as saying.

“Iran has already started producing spare parts for planes,” he said, indicating that the cooperation scheme with Airbus will help further boost Iran’s capabilities in that sector.

Iran in January signed a basic agreement with Airbus over the purchase of scores of planes. The deal is yet to be finalized but it has already received the go-ahead from the US Treasury Department.

The Department’s seal for Iran-Airbus agreement was necessary given that at least 10 percent of Airbus’ components are made in the US which has imposed a series of economic sanctions against Iran for years now.

Iran has also signed another basic agreement with US aviation giant Boeing over the purchase of planes.  The agreement, however, hit a bumpy road last month after US lawmakers approved a bill that banned the export, or re-export, of commercial aircraft to Iran by American financial institutions.

Iranian Artist’s Surreal Artwork on Boston Walls

Artwork -Boston Walls

Every autumn, an artist is commissioned to paint murals on the wall of transportation building of Rose Kennedy Greenway in Boston, US. This year, Mahdi Qadyanloo, a young Iranian artist, had the opportunity to exhibit his art on this wall. His mural titled “Spaces of Hope” has drown a lot of attention.

According to a Persian article by Honar Online, Qadyanloo has created many artworks in Iranian and European cities and tends to paint abstract themes using simple, geometrical shapes.

His Boston mural shows a closed setting with people waiting, where a balloon finds a hole in the framework’s ceiling to go out. This artwork, not as irrelevant to “American Dream”, pictures modern man’s imagination and dreams about a better life.

Qadyanloo, known for his surrealist paintings in Tehran, has created more than 100 paintings on the walls of different Iranian cities. His fame made its way to London in winter 2015, where he painted a mural titled “We didn’t start the play” on a wall in Shoreditch neighbourhood.

Then he held an exhibition of his artworks in London’s Howard Griffin gallery, a collaboration that offered him with artwork orders from US, Norway and India.

Qadyanloo was born in 1981 and graduated from Faculty of Fine Arts, Tehran University, with a degree in painting. In his biography, Qadyanloo refers to Iran-Iraq war as his most prominent memory of childhood, and admits that he turned to painting and beautification of urban spaces in an attempt to escape the eerie, grey space of his childhood memories.

Though it was merely an endeavour to beautify his surroundings at first, Qadyanloo persisted enough to make his artwork’s signature out of it, and made his way to Tehran and different world cities’ walls.

Chopper Crashes

The helicopter, belonging to Iran Helicopter Support and Renewal Company, crashed in Lake Chitgar at 11:40 a.m. local time on Tuesday, according to a statement by the company.

All of the 8 people on board the chopper were rescued from the lake after the crash and have been admitted to hospital, it added.

Mizan later reported that two of the crew members have lost their lives in the hospital.

The cause of the incident is under investigation, the statement noted, as reported by Tasnim.

The artificial lake of Chitgar was made next to a large forest park of the same name a few years ago.

WikiLeaks Reveals Sinister Relations between Erdogan’s Family and ISIS

Whistleblowing website WikiLeaks on Monday published a 57,934-email archive of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s son-in-law Berat Albayrak, who is also the country’s energy minister.

Erdogan’s son-in-law

According to a report covered by Khabar Online in Farsi, Albayrak’s emails seem to confirm the not-so-recent accusations, since the energy minister is appealing to be the “unofficial” owner of the oil company Powertrance which is importing oil from the ISIS-held territories in Northern Iraq to Turkey.

In late September 2015, a Turkish Marxist hacking organization, Red Hack, claimed that it has access to almost 20 gigabyte of data from Albayrak’s personal email accounts.

Information and articles regarding the email’s content began to go online; however, the Turkish justice system decided against the publication and reproduction of the emails, thus implying their authenticity.

The newest accusations that the Turkish government – and, specifically, members of Erdogan’s family – has an active role in the oil smuggling from areas that are controlled by the ISIS, were between the most important subjects that were temporarily released. The leaking of all the emails from the Turkish energy minister by WikiLeaks seem to confirm these allegations.

Zero-Sum Solution to Syrian Crisis Will Not Work: Zarif

Zarif in China University

Speaking at the Peking University in the Chinese capital on Tuesday, Iran’s Foreign Minister outlined Iran’s stances on world issues.

According to a report by IFP, the top Iranian diplomat said the military approach is not the perfect means of fighting terrorism.

“The military approach is not the ultimate approach to resolving extremism, and toward that end, cultural and university programs must be tapped to degrade and destroy this phenomenon,” Zarif said.

Zarif said the main cause of extremism and terrorism is “feelings of hate, desperation, and dissatisfaction that occupation has brought to nations.”

He said hegemonic powers harboured wrong perceptions of world politics, including that a country can achieve something only at the expense of other states.

The pursuance of zero-sum games, Zarif said, manifested itself in the occupation of Afghanistan and Iraq by US-led military forces.

“Can we now say that America is safer because of the occupation of Afghanistan and Iraq?” he asked. “That is not the case, and this is a wrong perception.”

He said Iran practiced the notion of “win-win” solutions for global issues by engaging in negotiations with six countries over its nuclear program, Press TV reported

Turning to Syria, he said, “If there is an insistence on a particular person’s departure from the country’s presidency, well, he has his own supporters, and that is true of the opposition, too.”

“We must have a global network with shared interests and mutual cooperation, [a network of countries] that would acknowledge the reality that we are all on the same boat and have to endeavour together to solve problems,” the Iranian foreign minister said.

On the crisis that has gripped the Arab country for six years, the Iranian minister noted that settlement of the crisis should entail “inclusion, not exclusion”, stressing that insistence on the overthrow of a president will get nowhere, because both the Syrian president and the opposition have their own proponents.

According to Tasnim’s report, he also made it clear that Iran and China share views on the modern world realities and conform to the ‘inclusion not exclusion’ game.

Zarif further highlighted the constructive results of academic and cultural collaboration between Iran and China in the fight against extremism, reiterating that military approaches could by no means tackle extremism.

The Iranian minister finally hailed China for playing a positive role in addressing the conflicts, as in Syria, not pursuing the role of a superpower.

Heading a mainly trade delegation, Zarif was in China as the second leg of an Asian tour that took him earlier to India for the 6th conference of the ‘Heart of Asia-Istanbul Process’.

He has now left Beijing for Tokyo for an official visit to Japan.

People Say JCPOA Had No Positive Effect on Iran’s Economy

JCPOA - Iran Nuclear Deal

According to a Persian report by Kayhan Newspaper, after the Parliamentary elections held last February in Iran, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani became known for kicking radicals out of Iranian Parliament and the Assembly of Experts.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump’s victory in the US presidential election shook the legacy of Rouhani and the turning point of his presidential policies, namely the nuclear deal.

“Regardless of what decisions Trump is to take during his first 100 days of Presidency, his conduct shows no tendency to cooperate with Iran on JCPOA.  It will have significant effects on Rouhani’s popularity,” Kayhan went on to say, quoting a report by National Interest.

“Since the implementation of JCPOA [the nuclear deal] in last January, Rouhani has been countering the claims made to violate the nuclear deal. He vowed that the deal will get Iran out of the shadow of war threats, and then it will attract foreign investment to Iranian economy and re-join Iran to the international market.

However, three-fourth of Iranian people have recently said in a survey that they don’t feel the economic improvement caused by JCPOA implementation in their lives.

Iran’s President Challenged by Students’ Harsh Criticisms

Rouhani

According to a report by IFP, Iranian students and officials annually mark Student Day on December 6 [or sometimes 7], the anniversary of martyrdom of three Iranian students back in 1953 who were protesting at US President Nixon’s visit to Iran.

To mark the occasion, President Rouhani headed to University of Tehran, the Faculty of Literature, and spoke with students.

At the beginning of the meeting, a representative from the “Islamic Society” of University of Tehran hailed Rouhani as a president who prevented a war from happening, and urged him to take serious action against organized corruption.

“We are worried that a government would replace yours [in the upcoming elections] that endangers the country once again,” the representative noted.

Meanwhile, the representative of “Student Basij” criticized Rouhani for preferring his government’s interests to honesty.

“You weren’t a good president, because you were not a revolutionary. You weren’t a revolutionary because you were optimistic about talks with US […] This incurred heavy damages on the country,” the Basij representative noted.

 

Freedom of Speech in Iran

After many harsh criticisms were raised against Rouhani and his government, Rouhani said, “I really enjoyed all the things mentioned by representatives of students in different ways. They were really beautiful. This is what we expect from university students.”

He hailed the level of freedom of speech in Iran, and stressed that under his administration, “Iranian students feel free to say whatever they want before the country’s President without any concern and censorship.”

“Nowhere in the world can you see the political independence we now have in Iran,” he added.

He asked students to criticize the president in a good tone, as recommended by the Holy Quran.

“I believe you should also criticize other branches of the Iranian Establishment,” Rouhani noted.

Basij studentsNational Unity, Key to Iran’s Achievements

Perhaps in response to members of IRGC’s Basij [volunteer] Force, who called Rouhani a non-revolutionary and dishonest president, Rouhani tried to calm down the atmosphere by saying that “Basij is not a group belonging to specific people.”

“If the country is threatened someday, we are all members of Basij,” he added.

“Whatever success we achieve was because of unity. Our thoughts and tastes are not the same, but we have common causes,” Rouhani noted.

He also referred to the hard-liners’ criticisms of the nuclear deal, particularly after the US violation of its commitments, and said, “Don’t worry! This is what I tell my revolutionary and ‘worried’ friends. The committee responsible for monitoring JCPOA implementation will have a meeting tomorrow in this regard.”

 

Trump’s Election and Its Influence on Nuclear Deal

He further referred to the election of Donald Trump as the US President and said, “A guy has been elected in the US votes. Look how other countries are shaking. The only country that is neither happy nor sad is Iran.”

“Whatever plan this guy [Trump] has, it will become clear in future; but we are going on our own way. He claims to have lots of plans, he wants to scrap the nuclear deal, but will the Iranian nation let him do that? US cannot influence Iran’s will and resistance,” he added.

 

JCPOA Finalized after Ayatollah Khamenei’s Approval

Rouhani further noted that all the moves made by the government in the course of nuclear talks and JCPOA were coordinated with the Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.

“We had meetings with the Leader and the letters are all available,” he stressed.

 

Nuclear Deal’s Benefits for Iran

“All anti-Iran sanctions, except for banking restrictions, have been totally lifted after the nuclear deal. We are now cooperating with small and medium-sized banks,” Rouhani said.

“In the past, we had to pay 10 to 20 percent commission fees for transfer of our petrodollars, but now JCPOA has resolved the issue for us, and we no longer have such problem,” he went on to say.

“Our power of negotiation with others originates from the Iranian nation,” he added.

“I ask you a question: are we now free to sell our oil or not,” he asked, hailing the ‘great job’ Iran’s Oil Minister Bijan Namdar Zanganeh did in the recent OPEC meeting.

“We actually restored our right,” Rouhani noted, saying that the country is now free to sell its oil.

“All countries in the world are pleased with the nuclear deal, because they can have interaction with us,” he added.

Ahmad Ghandchi who belonged to Jebhe-e Melli [National Front] and two other students, Shariat-Razavi and Bozorg-Nia who were claimed by Hezb-e Tudeh [Communist Tudeh Party of Iran], were killed when the police forces opened fire on the students of University of Tehran going on strike in protest at the resumption of Iran’s relations with Great Britain and US President Nixon’s visit to Iran, following the coup d’état of 1953.

According to a report by IFP, every year, the day is commemorated by student movements and there are local demonstrations at many universities organised by students.

Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has noted that the Day belongs to anti-US and anti-arrogance students.

The Leader’s sentence is highlighted in the following poster designed by Islamic Revolution Designers House.

Iran, Airbus to Cooperate in Building Aircraft Parts: Official

By
IFP Media Wire

airbus

“We will soon begin cooperation with Airbus in the manufacture of aircraft parts,” Manteqi said on Monday.

Spare parts manufacturers are the most important link in the chain in the process of building airplanes, the Iranian aviation official noted.

Airbus announced in September that it had received the US Treasury Department’s approval to sell aircraft to Iran. The company – together with its American rival Boeing – had earlier this year sealed deals with Iran to sell some 200 planes to Iran.

Back in October, Iran’s Minister of Road and Urban Development Abbas Akhoundi said the country would finalize a contract with Airbus for purchase of jetliners in the near future.

Speaking to reports on October 3, Akhoundi said his ministry and Airbus representatives held negotiations in Tehran a week earlier following the US decision to remove a final hurdle for Western aircraft manufacturers to sell planes to Iran under contracts signed after coming into force of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), a nuclear agreement between Tehran and the Group 5+1 (Russia, China, the US, Britain, France and Germany).

“The contract with Airbus will be finalized soon,” he added at the time.

Akhoundi noted that talks with Boeing are also in progress with “positive attitude on part of both sides.”

While the Western plane makers are impatient to begin trade with Iran, Washington still demands that even non-American manufacturers wishing to sell to Iran obtain an export license if their products include materials made in the United States. Airbus, based in Europe, buys more than 40 percent of all its aircraft parts from the US.

During a visit to Paris in January by Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, Tehran signed the major contract with Airbus worth about $27 billion to buy 118 planes.

Iran also sealed a deal in June worth around $25 billion with the US aerospace heavyweight, Boeing, for the purchase of 100 passenger planes.
