The president of Austrian Federal Economic Chamber said Tuesday that Iran and his country have signed 15 memoranda of understanding (MOUs) worth 80 million euros and the value of the agreements are capable of rising five times more than the current figure.

Speaking at a press conference after a joint economic meeting, Christophe Leitl said Iranian and Austrian companies are expected to do their best to secure the potential five-fold growth envisaged in the agreements.

“Austria has not set any investment priorities for presence in Iran’s various plans. In fact, it is for the Iranian government and the private sector to make a decision about the important matter,” he said.

President Leitl said that a visit by a 230-member delegation representing Austrian companies headed by the Austrian president to Iran is quite unprecedented.

“Austria is willing to contribute to many Iranian projects in line with the trade philosophy that both sides can benefit from the agreement signed,” he added.

The Austrian official said that his government and nation are opposed to all types of wars in the world, adding that the only way to settle all crises is through dialogue and understanding.

He said that as for tourism, Austria has a great deal of experience and excels at it in terms of software and hardware.

“It is Vienna’s policy to stand first in world tourism,” Leitl added.

He stressed the need for familiarity with the tourism culture in Iran before any planning in the sector.

The president of Austrian Federal Economic Chamber said that Vienna never left Tehran alone during sanctions, something for which Austria was criticized by its friends.

Iranian Judiciary Spokesman Gholam Hossein Mohseni Ejei said there have been no talks on an exchange of a Washington Post reporter detained in Iran.

“Nothing has been raised about the issue yet,” Mohseni Ejei said, in reply to a question on recent speculations about the exchange of Jason Rezaian, The Washington Post reporter imprisoned in Iran on espionage charges.

The remarks came a couple of days after Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani raised the possibility of a prisoner swap with the US, when asked about the release of Rezaian.

In August, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Consular, Parliamentary and Expatriates’ Affairs Hassan Ghashghavi rejected media reports that there are plans to exchange the jailed reporter for Iranian prisoners in the US.

“There are no talks on the swap of Jason Rezaian (for Iranian nationals jailed in the US),” Ghashghavi said.

Rezaian, a 39-year-old correspondent with dual Iran-US citizenships, along with his wife, Yeganeh Salehi, was arrested in Tehran on July 22, 2014 on espionage charges.

Two other American citizens also detained along with them work as freelance photojournalists. Yeganeh Salehi was released on bail in October 2014.

An indictment issued by Tehran’s prosecutor general says Rezaian is charged with “espionage by collecting the country’s decisions on internal and foreign policy issues, and cooperation with hostile governments.”

Iran has said that its construction work at Parchin military facility, southeast of Tehran, is normal and it will not allow any inspection of the “conventional” site.

“Parchin is a conventional military site. The construction there is normal and even it was indeed confirmed by some officials from the US that Parchin and the activities there are something normal and it doesn’t have any relevance to the IAEA work,” Iran’s Ambassador to the IAEA Reza Najafi said.

“Of course, this is a military site and Iran will not let any inspector go there,” he added.

​Najafi’s remarks came after IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano repeated his claims about construction work at Parchin military site which some world powers demand to inspect.

“These activities could undermine the capability of the IAEA on verification but as we do not have inspectors there and by way of observing through satellite imagery, we do not have further insight of these recent activities,” the IAEA chief said.

He added that “much work needs to be done” to finish the probe, but reiterated that the investigations will be complete by mid-December, as agreed in a roadmap between Iran and the IAEA.

The minister of culture and Islamic guidance has said that cultural relations can guarantee political and economic ties between Iran and Germany.

Ali Jannati made the remark in a meeting with German Ambassador to Iran Michael Baron Von Ungern Sternberg on Tuesday and added, “That generations of Iranians have lived in Germany is proof that the two countries have had the oldest industrial and economic relations and that they are interested in maintaining good bilateral ties”.

He said that the deep-rooted Iran-Germany cultural relations have continued partly intact, adding that Iran participates in Frankfurt Book Fair every year and the head of the German fair is invited to participate in the opening ceremony of the Tehran Book Fair this year.

Jannati also said that during Iran’s Culture Weeks in Germany in previous years the two sides used to have an exchange of films and musical troupes, but in recent years such exchanges have decreased. This needs to be restarted at a broad level.

The German ambassador, for his part, said that establishment of cultural relations will lead to decreasing tensions and help overcome crises [in the world].

“The economic and political relations cannot sustain successfully in the absence of cultural relations,” Von Ungern Sternberg said, adding that our efforts should be focused on expansion of such relations.

On the Tehran International Book Fair, the German envoy expressed satisfaction that Germany has always maintained its strong presence in this international event, adding that his country always do so in the future.

Naghdi

Commander of Iran’s Basij (volunteer) Force Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Naghdi dismissed the possibility that the US and its allies would stop their hostile acts against Iran after the nuclear agreement between Tehran and the world powers.

“The 5+1 countries (the US, Russia, China, Britain and France plus Germany) are the same old enemies who have today sat to the negotiating table against our nation and we would be much gullible to think that their problem with us merely pertains to the nuclear issue or the regional problems; the (main) issue is the confrontation between Islam and infidels,” Naghdi said, addressing a ceremony in the Central city of Qom on Tuesday.

He said the US is concerned about the spread of the Islamic Revolution in the world, and added, “The US problem is that the Islamic Revolution thoughts spell an end to the US rule in the world.”

Naghdi further said that if the US had been merely worried about Iran’s nuclear program, then it should have adopted a fresh approach toward Tehran after the nuclear agreement.

He also underlined the necessity for the termination of sanctions against Iran.

His remarks came after Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei blasted the US statesmen for their contradictory remarks after the nuclear agreement with Tehran, and called on the Iranian officials to show more sensitivity and give proper response to their comments.

Leader-Austria President-5

“Some European countries’ following the US is unwise and groundless. Of course, Austria is not one of these countries,” the Leader said in a meeting with visiting Austrian President Heinz Fischer in Tehran on Tuesday.

The Leader added that the US is hostile against Iran because it lost its interests in the Islamic Republic after the victory of the Islamic Revolution in 1979.

“The Islamic Revolution took Iran, which was fully under the Americans’ control, from them and this issue is the reason behind the US hostility against the Islamic Republic,” Ayatollah Khamenei said.

The Leader called on Iranian and Austrian officials to devise plans and follow up on them in order to enhance bilateral ties.

He said the main goal of the Islamic Revolution was to bring prosperity and happiness to the Iranian people and all humans under the aegis of “following the divine path, rule of wisdom and faith together with action.”

Ayatollah Khamenei emphasized that Iran’s “benevolent approach” has won the country enemies who are after warmongering and are seeking to pit nations against one another.

However, Iran has plenty of good and king friends among governments and nations, the Leader said.

 

In response to a question by the Austrian president about the future of ties between Iran and European countries, the Leader said, “Certain remarks have been made on the part of the European governments, but we should wait for the practical effects of these remarks.”

The Leader further pointed to deviant moves operating in the name of Islam in the Middle East region, saying: “Islam is not what these [deviant] currents are introducing, but Islam stands on a strong, faithful and wise basis.”

During the meeting, which was also attended by Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani, the Austrian president assessed as good his negotiations with Iranian officials.

Fischer said the two countries should hold more dialogue on the issues of mutual interest to finalize agreements.

He added that he held good talks with the Iranian president and expressed optimism about the future of mutual relations.

He said a new opportunity has been created for Tehran and Vienna to improve cooperation.
