Iranian, Swiss Diplomats Discuss Humanitarian Crisis in Syria

Speaking in a Friday meeting with Head of the Swiss Humanitarian Aid Unit (SHA) Manuel Bessler in Geneva, Jaberi Ansari emphasized the necessity for paying attention to humanitarian aspect of the conflicts in the Middle East region, Syria in particular.

He further said by ignoring the political aspect of the Syrian conflict and the anti-terrorism campaign in the Arab country, the ongoing efforts to resolve the crisis would yield no result.

The Iranian diplomat also stressed the need for closer cooperation between Iran and Switzerland to help resolve humanitarian crisis in Syria.

Bessler, who is also Swiss deputy foreign minister, praised Tehran’s role in the formation of the upcoming trilateral talks among Iran, Syria and Switzerland aimed at facilitating the delivery of humanitarian assistance to the Syrian people.

Syria has been gripped by civil war since March 2011 with various terrorist groups, including Daesh (also known as ISIS or ISIL), currently controlling parts of it.

According to a report by the Syrian Center for Policy Research, the conflict has claimed the lives of over 470,000 people, injured 1.9 million others, and displaced nearly half of the country’s pre-war population of about 23 million within or beyond its borders.

In the meantime, Iran has remained a close ally of Syria and supports its legitimate government in the face of foreign-backed militancy.

Advent of modern society, technology and industrial progresses led to noise pollution which has affected the world highly, but recently many researchers have become interested in this topic and made their best efforts to solve the issue.

After the emergence of nanotech in the world of science, many new doors have been opened to solve this problem and now a new step has been taken by Iranian researchers.

“We studied the sound absorption of the reinforced nano-fibres with graphene and it was shown that reinforced nano-fibres can acquire impedance-matched surface to airborne sound at special frequencies,” said Dr. Reza Rasouli, a researcher at Zanjan University.

He stated, “We found that fibres without graphene oxide were spun continuously and randomly, whereas by doping with graphene oxide, the mode of fibres is changed and some nodes form on the fibres coating.”

“The sound absorption coefficient was measured by impedance Measurements in the frequency range from 700 to 1600 Hz show that use of graphene oxide as a reinforcing phase increases sound absorption coefficient of the samples.”

The results of all the experiments done by the Iranian researchers led to reducing noise pollution to a great extent. This tech can be used in auto industry and factories as well.

SAIPA - PSA Group

Based on the deal, Citroen cars will be produced in Iran’s central city of Kashan at a plant which will be jointly owned by the two companies.

The agreement between Citroen and SAIPA – which has been the French company’s historic partner in Iran since the 60s – lays the foundations for a new strategic partnership between them.

The joint-venture will accordingly invest above €300 million in manufacturing and R&D capacity over the next five years.

“With more than 50 years of presence in Iran, PSA Group through this new strategic partnership is clearly committed to the deployment of a rich product plan that meets the expectations of Iranian clients,” Carlos Tavares, Chairman of the PSA Group Managing Board, has been quoted as telling the reporters after signing the agreement.

The agreement envisages the transfer of technology and a significant level of local content, Reuters reported.

Also, Citroen models will be sold throughout the country through a network dedicated exclusively to the brand. No less than 150 Citroen outlets will open in the next 5 years, Reuters added.

Consistent with the core model strategy deployed in the Push to Pass plan, the production in Kashan of three vehicles adapted to the heart of Iranian market will start in 2018, Business Wire reported. From early 2017, imported vehicles will be staging Citroen’s comeback in the country.

SAIPA, along with Iran Khodro, dominates Iran’s massive market of about 80 million people. It consists of seven manufacturers and roughly contributes at least 30% to the total car production in Iran at above 300,000 cars per year.

Iran is the Middle East’s largest auto market with a population of 80 million. The automobile industry is seen as Iran’s biggest non-oil sector, accounting for nearly 10% of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP).

Iran Warns Regional States against Following Warmongers

Yemen-under-attack

“Countries which launched a cruel war against the defenseless Yemeni people, after one year and a half since the beginning of the aggression and [committing] numerous crimes against the Yemeni people, are trying to justify their ignominious defeat through such claims,” Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Bahram Qassemi said on Friday.

He urged countries which cannot endure the most minor consequences of wars not to fall for warmongering policies.

In his recent allegations against Iran, the Emirati Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Anwar Bin Mohammad Gargash, claimed that Iran is sending weapons to Yemen’s Houthi Ansarullah fighters and this would only prolong the war in Yemen.

He added that Houthi’s recent targeting of an Emirati military vessel, Swift, is part of systemic aggression and premeditated escalation aimed at undermining any political solution to the Yemeni crisis.

On Saturday, Yemeni forces targeted and destroyed the Emirati military vessel in a rocket attack near the Red Sea port city of Mokha.

The Iranian Foreign Ministry’s spokesman on Tuesday also denied claims made by a US official that a missile used by Yemen’s Houthi Ansarullah fighters to destroy the Emirati military vessel was made by Iran.

Qassemi said the US should take a look at its own heavy dossier concerning the supply of arms and weapons to those attacking civilians in Yemen instead of putting the blame on others.

Yemen has been under Saudi military strikes since late March 2015. The war was launched in a bid to reinstate Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi, who has stepped down as president but is now seeking to grab power by force. The United Nations puts the death toll from the military aggression at about 10,000.

Houthi Ansarullah fighters, allied with Yemeni army factions, and forces loyal to Yemen’s former president Ali Abdullah Saleh have united and are fighting back the Saudi invaders.

Iran, Malaysia to Double Trade Volume

Rouhani Malaysia

Speaking at a joint press conference with Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak in Kuala Lumpur on Friday, President Rouhani urged the Southeast Asian country to invest in Iran in the post-JCPOA and post-sanctions era.

“Iran supports investment by Malaysian companies in the oil, gas and petrochemical sectors,” he added,

According to President Rouhani, the two sides decided today to restore the volume of bilateral trade ties to the pre-sanctions level in the first step and double it immediately afterwards.

The Iranian president underlined intensifying the efforts to stimulate the two countries’ banking ties, and called for collaboration with Malaysia in the Halal food industry, academic and technological fields and tourism industry.

As regards the other subjects discussed in the meeting with Razak, President Rouhani pointed to mutual concerns about conflicts provoked in the Islamic world by foreigners and the threat of terrorism.

Heading a political and economic delegation, President Rouhani embarked on a tour of Southeast Asia on Wednesday that first took him to Vietnam.

He will later fly to Thailand to attend the 2nd Asia Cooperation Dialogue (ACD) Summit.

Iran Denies Diplomat’s Visit to Yemen

Foreign Ministry Spokesman Bahram Qassemi on Thursday dismissed the report by Saudi newspaper Al-Watan about Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Arab and African Affairs Hossein Jaberi Ansari’s visit to Yemen.

Qassemi described the report as part of Saudi Arabia’s attempts to cover up its successive defeats in the aggression against Yemen.

Saudi media outlets issue such false reports while all routes to Sana’a have been closed for a couple of months and the Saudi military forces do not allow even the Yemeni nationals to travel to Sana’a, he added.

Since March 2015, Saudi Arabia and some of its Arab allies have been launching deadly airstrikes against the Houthi Ansarullah movement in an attempt to restore power to the fugitive former President Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi, a close ally of Riyadh.

Nearly 10,000 Yemenis, including 4,000 women and children, have lost their lives in the deadly military campaign.

Rouhani Vietnam

“The two sides agreed to increase their bilateral trade turnover to $2 billion,” Rouhani said in a joint press conference with his Vietnamese counterpart Tran Dai Quang in the capital Hanoi on Thursday.

Heading a high-ranking delegation of political and economic officials, President Rouhani on Wednesday embarked on a tour of Southeast Asia. After Vietnam, he will visit Malaysia and Thailand, where he will participate in the 2nd Asia Cooperation Dialogue (ACD) Summit.

Hailing the existing potentials for expansion of trade ties between Tehran and Hanoi, the Iranian president said, “There is a great opportunity to export oil, gas and petrochemicals from Iran to Vietnam”.

Tehran, Hanoi to Boost Bilateral Trade to $2bln: Rouhani

He also invited Vietnamese companies to invest in Iran’s oil and gas sectors, and stressed that the two nations should enhance their cooperation in various spheres, including technical and engineering services and economic and trade ties, particularly in banking sector, as well as closer academic and scientific collaborations.

For his part, Vietnam’s President Tran Dai Quang, also stressed the need for enhanced ties between Tehran and Hanoi in all fields, and said, “In economics, cooperation opportunities are still large… but the scale of cooperation and bilateral trade are still modest.”

Additionally, the two presidents on Thursday signed two documents of cooperation in the fields of technology and communication.

The two sides also signed an agreement whereby visa regime between the two countries will be abolished conditionally.

Tehran, Hanoi to Boost Bilateral Trade to $2bln: Rouhani

Iran opened an embassy in Hanoi in 1991 and Vietnam opened its embassy in Tehran in 1997. They established relations in 1973 and since then the two countries have increased political and economic cooperation through exchange of visits by senior officials from both sides.

Trade exchanges between them reached $300 million in 2013 from $80 million in 2010. Those transactions currently stand at $350 million, meaning the two countries have an arduous task to hit the $2 billion mark.
