TEHRAN PAPERS:

Iran's export increase with Shanghai and BRICS

October 23, 2023 - 14:46

In a commentary, the Iran newspaper discussed the development of Iran's trade with different countries of the world. It quoted Mehdi Safari, the deputy foreign minister for economic diplomacy as saying: “The policy of the 13th government is based on developing trade with neighboring countries, the African continent, Latin America and East Asia.

t Asia. This policy has been implemented while some of these countries were not even aligned with Iran and even some of these countries had nothing to do with Iran, but now Iran is in a good position. Iran's membership in the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and its looming inclusion in BRICS after many consultations provide new opportunities for the country's exports. Also, by becoming a shareholder in the BRICS Bank, Iran can benefit from its loan facilities for exporting technical engineering services.” Emphasizing that some countries were not interested in relations with Iran but now have trade with Iran, Safari emphasized: "We put commercial development on the agenda with the Supreme Leader's emphasis on foreign trade and exports; also, the foreign exchange policy was taken into consideration by the order of the president in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Siasat-e-Rooz: Time is running out

Siasat-e-Rooz analyzed Joe Biden's visit to Israel on October 18. The newspaper wrote: While Biden was flying to Israel, bombers targeted al-Ahli hospital in Gaza in which hundreds of civilians, including the injured, medical personnel, and people taking refuge in the hospital to flee the Israeli bombardments, were martyred. Biden entered the region to back the warmongering Zionist regime.  A foreign minister from a Muslim country attending the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) meeting in Jeddah likened Biden’s visit to the region to “a dinosaur that gave birth to a fly!". Despite many claims that Democrats support human rights and humanitarian issues, Biden declared that we arranged for 20 trucks of humanitarian aid to Gaza in the coming days. In response, the foreign minister of the Islamic Republic of Iran said: “This is ridiculous and funny. To cover up his support for a criminal (Netanyahu), the U.S. president is talking about allowing 20 trucks of humanitarian aid to Gaza, which is in dire need of food, medicine, water and fuel. I would like to announce loudly that time is running out and that the warmongers will not be able to remove the resistance and Hamas from Gaza.”

Kayhan: Pro-Western media do not learn from infidelity of the West again

Kayhan dedicated its editorial to the new U.S. sanctions against Iran. It wrote: The recent action of the U.S. and Europe was the latest lesson from the JCPOA. In the past days, some self-proclaimed media outlets and activists praised the UN Security Council Secretariat's note in announcing the lifting of missile-related sanctions on Iran as well as the end of sanctions on certain Iranian individuals and entities, calling it a precious legacy of the previous government and a proud fruit of the JCPOA! This is while the arms embargo should have been removed eight years ago. Currently, the West is in a state of absolute confusion and helplessness in the face of Iran's progress in the drone industry. Not long ago, while America and Europe insisted on tightening sanctions on Iran, some members of the British Parliament claimed that 11 universities of this country have cooperated with Iran in the production of fighter jets and drones. In the 13th government, by abandoning "begging diplomacy", we are witnessing progress in the nuclear industry and the synergy of diplomacy and the field; we are also seeing ever-increasing progress in the space industry. These advances are the result of not tying people's livelihoods to the anger and smiles of American and European officials.

Ham Mihan: Iran and America in shadow of Gaza crisis

In an article, Ham-Mihan discussed the fate of the nuclear agreement with Iran in view of the U.S. domestic policy. It wrote: Considering the recent developments in the war between Israel and Hamas, it seems difficult to stop the implementation of the recent agreements between Iran and the U.S. after conducting various negotiations. However, it should be noted that the legal instruments in the American legal system are not absolute, and in the political process and negotiations between the parties, they may become weak or strong. The four reports of the International Atomic Energy Agency, conducting direct negotiations between the parties, reducing the level of regional conflicts, and reducing the crisis in Ukraine are decisive in this matter and can weaken or strengthen the legal processes. The tragedy of the war between Israel and Hamas entails control and management of the crisis. It seems that if the parties can leave behind this tragedy, even if the next government is a Republican, the view and desire to establish security and stability in the region will gain more momentum.
