TEHRAN - Siasat-e-Rooz devoted its editorial to the first International Nuclear Science and Technology Conference 2024 in Isfahan and the visit of the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency to participate in this meeting.

It wrote: The visit of Grossi takes place while Iran is on one side of the equation, and according to the Agency, Iran has given the most inspections and access to the Agency's inspectors. On the other side of the equation are the Western parties of the JCPOA, who were obliged to implement the JCPOA obligations. They have not only not done anything but have always used the Agency as a political tool to put pressure on Iran. In this situation, during Grossi's trip, Tehran demands to change the Agency's behavior from political work to a technical and specialized approach. What is going on in the nuclear field in Iran these days is derived from Iran's comprehensive interactions with the IAEA. Iran is trying to give another opportunity to the IAEA and Grossi to end the political activities and move in the correct technical direction. Also, this conference should become a place for synergy between thinkers in the nuclear field, and its result can bring many achievements to solve the problems of the world today.

Ham Mihan: A trip with a positive approach

In its headline, Ham Mihan investigated the visit of the Kurdistan Regional President Nechirvan Barzani to Tehran and said: In the past three years, various events have occurred in the region. Some parts of these events are related to the direct relations between Tehran and Erbil, and another part is related to Kurdistan's relations and Israel. These political and security events double the importance of the visit of the head of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq to Iran. The economic and political relations between Iran, Iraq, and the Kurdistan Region cause this Region to have special political and security importance for Tehran. Therefore, cooperation with forces like Barzani is naturally helpful in regional issues and deepening Iran-Iraq relations. Iraq has capacities that the Islamic Republic can use, and Iran also has capacities that can be used by Iraq. Iran and Iraq are the strategic depth of each other. When the strategists of both sides are in harmony, these relationships become deeper. For this reason, Barzani's trip will be positive and blessed.

Sobh-e-No: An opportunity to solve problems

In a note, Sobh-e-No dealt with Grossi's trip to Tehran. The paper said: The meeting of the Director General of the Atomic Energy Agency with the officials of our country in Tehran is one of the important developments in the process of the country's nuclear activities, which originated from the purposeful diplomacy of the 13th government. It shows that Iran has been able to advance its nuclear diplomacy with the IAEA in line with the regional foreign policy. During the months after the start of the Al-Aqsa storm war, the news of nuclear diplomacy has been under the shadow of the news related to the escalation of political and military tension between Tehran and Tel Aviv, and it has had less opportunity to be reflected in the world media. This provided an opportunity for some Western-Zionist circles to talk about reducing Iran's nuclear breakout time in a false claim and put Grossi under double pressure to pursue this undocumented accusation. Grossi's presence in Iran also provides an opportunity for the two sides to share their concerns about the Agency's inspectors with each other.

Etemad: Iran's deterrence power

In an analysis, Etemad discussed the increase of Iran's deterrence power in the region and said: In the field of foreign policy, the security and defense policies of the Islamic Republic of Iran are based on deterrence and forward defense. When Iran's rivals and enemies have high military power and there is no balance of power, Iran has sought to increase its deterrence power. Simultaneously with the increase of conventional deterrence power, which is mostly based on missile power, drones, and also the expansion of naval power, Iran has made tremendous progress in the nuclear field in these years; but the doctrine of the Islamic Republic in the nuclear field has not been to build nuclear weapons, and there is no proof that it has made a political decision to build nuclear weapons. Therefore, today Iran has the ability to make nuclear and atomic weapons and has become a nuclear power, but it has not made a decision to physically produce an atomic bomb, and there is no proof that it will make such a decision in the near future.
