New Sanctions and Outlook of Iran-EU Relations |
|
|
|
Saturday, 14 August 2010 |
 Iran and the European Union are major players in the existing international security and political system and challenging bilateral interactions will not be beneficial to economic, trade, energy, political, cultural and diplomatic interests of either side.

|
|
|
Friday, 13 August 2010 |
 Sanctions are sure to make Iran suffer and increase costs of economic transactions by many times. But the American politicians should pay due attention to two facts. Firstly, history has proven that pressure, sanctions, and war will cause nothing but losses and pity. Secondly, Iranian people have proven throughout their history and in eight years of war with Iraq that they are quite familiar with the patriotism which has been depicted by Huntington in Charles Street and are neither strangers to, nor afraid of it. |

|
|
|
Wednesday, 11 August 2010 |

Sunday, 08 August 2010 |
 Following the triumph of Islamic Revolution in 1979 and when Iran turned its back on a former ally (the United States) and an ex-friend (Israel), the stage was gradually set for an Iranophobia project in the west. The project, which was mainly managed by radical politicians in the United States and Israel – and occasionally by European states – entailed extreme use of all media capacities to depict Iran as a menace to regional peace and stability and, from 2003, as a major threat to international peace and security. |

|
|

 “Security enigma” and “discriminatory double standards” applied to Iran’s nuclear case by international powers such as the United States are the main causes for the escalation of tension over the nuclear program and adoption of sanctions resolutions by the Security Council. Due to vast economic and political interactions among regional states, they currently see Iran as an opportunity offered to them despite all obstacles created by international sanctions. |
