According to Alireza Ashnagar, the Kordestan deputy governor general for political, security and social affairs, the consignment was sent to the Iraqi region as a move to help improve the living conditions of people in border areas, and also to reduce fuel smuggling across the region.

He said the exported gas oil was provided by the provincial oil storage center in the provincial capital of Sanandaj. He also said that the export deal was part of a project allowing cooperatives run by border people to export fuel to neighbouring regions.

Academic’s Open Letter to Aref about Parliamentary Presidency

By
IFP Editorial Staff

Here’s IFP’s translation of excerpts from his letter, as published by Shargh newspaper.

Shargh: These days, the selection of next Parliament Speaker is one of the main topics in Iran’s political atmosphere. Aref, as the head of the reformists’ list [List of Hope] in the February 26 elections, and the chief of the High Council for Reformists’ Policy-Making, has received the highest number of votes among all MPs-elect, and now sees himself as the chairman of the Hope Faction [composed of reformist and moderate lawmakers] in the next parliament.

Certain reformist parties and figures consider him a great choice for the parliamentary presidency, and regard it as a change desired by people who voted for the left-wingers. On the other hand, some people prefer a more collaborative approach, as the next parliament will be divided between moderate conservatives, reformists, and pro-government figures.

In an open letter to Aref, Sadegh Zibakalam gives him some advice on the imminent competition for the role of Parliament Speaker.

He first offered his congratulations to Aref on the reformist success in the February 26 polls, “in spite of all obstacles,” and also on the formation of the “Hope Faction”, which is going to be headed by the senior reformist figure.

“We know that our unexpected victory in the elections was more surprising to us than it was to the conservatives. Millions of our compatriots accepted the invitation of reformist leaders and eagerly went to the ballot boxes on February 26 [first round] and April 29 [run-off] across the country, and as a result, expect that reformists take over the parliamentary presidency after 12 years of conservative leadership,” Zibakalam said in his letter.

According to Zibakalam, if a reformist figure isn’t elected as the Parliament Speaker, many of those who voted for the List of Hope, particularly the younger generation, would be disappointed, asking, “What was the point of taking part in the elections if no change was going to happen, and the legislature was going to remain in the hands of conservatives anyway?.”

“However, others have different considerations and concerns; while confirming these [aforementioned] arguments, they are worried that the reformists’ efforts to take the presidency of the Parliament would lead to an outright confrontation with the conservatives, and at the same time break an unwritten but fragile coalition of moderate conservatives with pro-government and reformist MPs,” he added.

“There is no doubt that both sides want the best for reformism. If many of these friends insist that you [Aref] should run for parliament presidency, they are concerned about our social support base weakening. On the other hand, if certain other friends do not pursue the same approach, that is because they are worried that your presidency in Parliament would provoke the other side’s [Conservatives’] anger, hindering the progress of reformism in Iran.”

Zibakalam further suggested that all reformists should wait for their leader, ex-President Seyyed Mohammad Khatami, and consider his opinion.

“From this point on, we should all abide by the reformist leader’s opinion; we should fully obey any decision made [by him]. We shouldn’t forget that you [Aref] didn’t want to withdraw from 2013 presidential elections in support of Rouhani. You might even have received more votes than Rouhani and today, you might have been the President instead of him, but you submitted to the reformist leader’s opinion, and paved the way for the victory of Hassan Rouhani by your historic decision,” he added.

Zibakalam further highlighted the important role the reformists’ faction, or Faction of Hope, is supposed to play in the 10th Parliament.

“Whether you are selected as the speaker of parliament or not, one thing is certain for now; a new faction has been formed in the tenth Parliament. Whether we call it the ‘Faction of Hope’ or the faction of reformists, it is a result of people’s votes for reformism […]. Although their first expectation is a change in the presidency of Parliament, such an expectation is more of a symbolic type, Mr. Aref. A more serious expectation they have is to see that the reformist MPs are really trying to realize and secure democracy, civil rights, civil freedoms, the rule of law, the improvement of economic conditions, and most importantly, to restore the Parliament to its real position, which is ‘in charge of all affairs’.”

Zibakalam outlined a long list of Iran’s domestic and international economic, political, and social problems, including unemployment, economic corruption, regional tensions, and social ills, stressing the important role of the Parliament under such circumstances.

“The government, as the executive body, is not able to settle all these problems alone,” he noted, reminding Aref and the reformist MPs of their huge responsibility in the new era.

“One of the adverse consequences of more than one decade of conservative domination over Parliament was the decline of its position in the country’s macro-management. As a result of conservatives’ presidency in three terms [7th, 8th, and 9th parliaments], the Majlis [Parliament] has practically been downgraded to a weak body, while it is supposed to be in charge of everything.”

He further referred to various cases in which previous parliaments had performed poorly, and criticized parliamentarians’ huge support for ex-President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and his plans.

Zibakalam also questioned the inaction of the then parliaments in dealing with his “incorrect” policies, particularly his economic plans and foreign policy.

He finally concluded his remarks by urging Aref to restore the lost position of the Majlis, bringing it back to “being in charge of the country’s affairs”. Zibakalam described it as Aref’s first and most important duty as the leader of reformist MPs, and highlighted the role of Faction of Hope in this regard.

The faction can empower Parliament, as its members can join different commissions, including the Principle 90 Commission, where they can hold accountable the country’s most powerful bodies, including judicial, security, and even military and disciplinary ones, for their decisions and policies, he added.

“The voters expect that the Faction of Hope will be able to restore Parliament to its position, which is in charge of everything.  The reformist MPs should be able to realize the 100-year-old dream of ‘obeying the law’ in Iran, and this is more important than the presidency of Parliament and the share of each political faction.”

“The reformist MPs can work to revise the elections law, and to attract the attention of all Iranian bodies to the fact that, firstly, they should work within the framework of their legal authority, and more importantly, they have to be held accountable for their decisions and policies,” he noted.

Disturbing Rise in Multiple Sclerosis in Iran

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a complex neurological disorder most likely caused by gene–environment interactions. On the occasion of World MS Day, May 25, Mohammad Ali Sahraeian told IRNA that, based on the latest statistics, 65,000 to 70,000 Iranians are affected by MS, equivalent to affecting 115 people out of every 100,000.

Reportedly, he said, out of this population, many have yet to come for treatment, despite the disease being “more prevalent this year than last year.” Isfahan Province has the highest incidence of MS, while Sistan and Baluchestan Province holds the lowest, he added.

According to some reports, Sahraeian explained, in 2008 in Tehran, out of every 100,000 residents, 50 were affected, while the number in 2014 reached 101 and in 2015 was 115, displaying a rising trend.

Sahraeian, who is also a professor at the University of Tehran, said 80% of the MS population is between the ages of 18-50, adding that children also get affected by the disease but not at the rate adults do.

There have been numerous theories and extensive debates on the causative mechanisms of MS. A viral cause is still considered as a possible hypothesis. Western lifestyles, which are being copied by the youth of the region nowadays, may be related to MS as well. Environmental factors such as different types of pollutants may also play a role. The stress caused by the unstable geopolitical situation in the region may also trigger an earlier age of onset.

In children, the symptoms of MS mostly resemble those in adults, therefore families should be aware of warning signs of the disease, and take their children immediately to neurologists.

The professor lists the early symptoms of the disease as including: blurred or double vision, thinking problems, clumsiness or a lack of coordination, loss of balance, numbness, and tingling sensation, and he advised people to take these symptoms seriously.

Good nutrition and consumption of healthy food can be effective in disease prevention, he said. Overall, physicians recommend people to avoid greasy fast food and instead consume fruit and vegetables.

Although there is no cure for multiple sclerosis, physical therapy and medication can help with symptoms and slow disease progression.

Iran Climbs World Nanotech Ranking to 6th, Exceeding Japan

Saeid Sarkar, the Head of the Iran Nanotechnology Initiative Council (INIC), made the announcement during a festival of top nanotechnology media, adding “Presently, at the end of the first 10-year [nanotechnology] plan, we are standing among the top five countries in terms of manpower development.”

“Iran has made considerable progress in the field of nanotechnology and has been successful in demonstrating a model for development and progress,” he added.

“The United States invests over $2bn annually, and Japan over $1.5bn, in nanotechnology, while the capital of the INIC is merely $20m. This budget cannot even compare with the budget for nanotechnology development in other countries.”

Sarkar went on to add, however, “Over 160 nano companies are currently active in Iran, and there are 320 Iranian nano products available on the market.”

He highlighted that the post-sanction era was creating favourable conditions for Iranian nano products in global markets, adding “In the past month, we were able to export a nanofibre production machine to South Korea. Iranian products are also currently being exported to Australia and China.”

Germans in Search of Business Opportunities in Iran

“Iran’s economy in the post-sanctions era is rapidly moving towards privatization, and now is a good time for foreign companies, especially those from Germany, to take advantage of investment opportunities,” said chairman Masoud Khansari.

According to Khansari, the banking issues are still the main obstacle against the expansion of bilateral ties, even though the sanctions have been removed.

For his part, Garlet Duin, Minister of Economy and Energy of the German state, accepted that the banking issue is the main problem, and noted that serious negotiations with banks will continue. Good results have been achieved so far, and with patience, problems will be lifted in the near future.

He also announced that Hermes insurance had agreed to resume its activities in Iran, which was good news for investors.

Afghan Taliban Appoint New Leader after Mansour’s Death

By
Golrokh Askarieh

In a statement sent to media, the insurgent group said its new leader is Mullah Haibatullah Akhundzada, one of two of Mansour’s deputies. It said he was chosen at a meeting of Taliban leaders, which was believed to have been held in Pakistan, the Associated Press reported.

Mansour was killed in Pakistan on Saturday when his vehicle was struck by a US drone, an attack that is believed to be the first time a Taliban leader was killed in such a way inside Pakistani territory.

Pakistani authorities are believed to have given shelter and support to some Taliban leaders over the Afghan border. The insurgents have been fighting to overthrow the Kabul government since 2001, when their own regime was overthrown by the US invasion.

The US and Afghan governments said Mansour had been an obstacle to a peace process that had ground to a halt when he refused to participate in peace talks earlier this year. Instead, he intensified the war in Afghanistan, now in its 15th year.

Mansour had led the Taliban since last summer, when the death of the movement’s founder, the one-eyed Mullah Mohammad Omar, became public. Mansour ran the movement in Mullah Omar’s name for more than two years. The revelation of Mullah Omar’s death and Mansour’s deception led to widespread mistrust, with some senior leaders leaving the group to set up their own factions.

Senior Taliban figures have said that his death could strengthen the movement, as he was a divisive figure. The identity of his successor was expected to be an indication of the direction the insurgency would take, either toward peace or continued war.

Akhundzada is a scholar known for issuing public statements justifying the existence of the extremist Taliban, their war against the Afghan government and the presence of foreign troops in Afghanistan. His views are regarded as hawkish, and he could be expected to continue in the aggressive footsteps of Mansour.

Wednesday’s statement said two new deputies had also been appointed — both of whom had earlier been thought to be the main contenders for the top job. They are Sirajuddin Haqqani, who was also one of Mansour’s deputies, and the son of Mullah Omar, Mullah Yaqoub.

The Taliban statement called for three days of mourning for Mansour. It also attempted to calm any qualms among the rank and file by calling for unity and obedience to the new leader.

Iran Condemns Deadly Terrorist Attacks in Syria

In a statement released on Wednesday, Jaberi Ansari expressed deep sympathy with the bereaved families of the victims and the people and government of Syria over the tragic incidents.

He said that terrorism and extremism are serious threats to regional nations as well as to global peace and security, adding that Iran calls on the international community to fulfil its moral and legal duty to counter them.

Four car bombs and three suicide bombers struck the Syrian cities of Jableh and Tartus, leaving a trail of over 140 dead on Monday May 23.

According to the Syrian Foreign Ministry, terrorists first detonated a car bomb at the main bus station in Tartus, which was immediately followed by two suicide bomb explosions, one inside the bus station and the other in a nearby residential neighbourhood.

At least 48 people were killed in Tartus on Monday. Many of those killed and injured were school children or university students.

Almost simultaneously with the Tartus blasts, militants detonated three car bombs in the city of Jableh. Two of the bombs went off at the main bus station, while the third was deployed near the Electricity Directorate. A fourth attack in the city was carried out by a suicide bomber at the entrance to Jableh National Hospital.

At least 100 people were killed in Jableh. The “Ahrar al-Sham” terrorist group claimed responsibility for the attacks in both cities.

Iran Increases Gas Output by 23bn Cubic Metres: Deputy Oil Minister

“Iran’s natural gas output has risen by 23 billion cubic metres over the last year,” Araqi said.

He reiterated that the commencement of the operations in two new phases in the South Pars gas field has helped Iran to increase its gas production.

The rise in Iran’s gas output comes after the development of phases 15 and 16 of South Pars last year, which upped Iranian production by millions of cubic metres per day.

Iran has over 20 projects in South Pars. More than a dozen phases have been made operational; several will be fully developed soon, and the remaining phases are still to be awarded to companies.

The huge offshore field covers an area of 9,700 square km, 3,700 square km of which are in Iran’s territorial waters in the Persian Gulf. The remaining 6,000 square kilometers are situated in Qatar’s territorial waters.

The field is estimated to contain a significant amount of natural gas, accounting for about 8% of the world’s reserves, and approximately 18 billion barrels of condensate.

The election of a senior conservative figure, the 89-year-old Ayatollah Ahmad Jannati, as the new chairman of Assembly of Experts, a body in charge of monitoring and choosing Iran’s Leader, was the top story in all Iranian newspapers. Conservative media mostly covered it as a huge success for their camp, and even boasted about their victory.

A motion passed by the Iranian Parliament in the last day of its previous term also received great attention. The bill urges employers to inquire about applicants for “sensitive jobs” by referring to the country’s judiciary, the Intelligence Ministry, and also the Intelligence Organization of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), which was newly added to the list.

The ongoing campaigns against ISIS terrorists in Iraq and Syria, and also a vow made by the Iranian Economy Minister Ali Tayyebnia and Governor of Central Bank Valiollah Seif to reduce the inflation rate to less than 10% by summer were also covered by many newspapers.

Dutch Company to Assist Iranian Oil Terminal Renovation

By
Golrokh Askarieh
-

Seyyed Pirouz Mousavi told Mehr on Tuesday May 24 that boosting oil income and exports was a government priority, and oil terminals played an important role. “The harbouring of foreign oil tankers has almost doubled in Iran’s terminals in the post-JCPOA period; we recently broke the daily exports record,” he added.

“Removal of sanctions was crucial for raising crude oil production; the IOTC is the last link in the chain of oil and gas production,” said Mousavi, who announced the company’s plans to renew oil infrastructure and facilities. “More than 100 major the oil facilities overhauls have been completed, which has greatly improved the company’s oil production and export resources.”

Mousavi then announced that a Dutch contractor company had been commissioned to participate in the renovation of Iran’s oil terminals and facilities, oil restoration facilities, and tanker loading buoys, saying, “Some facilities are Dutch-made and accordingly, we invite their participation and contribution in the project.”

The Kharg oil terminal has two wharfs (known as T-wharf on the eastern side and Azarpad on the western side) which are responsible for 90% of the country’s oil exports.
