[00:00:00] I must say that this very we should not talk. Fighting our way, our country. react? From is not the our relationship with the
[00:00:03] honorable Prime Minister of India has been getting
[00:00:06] better day by day since I took
[00:00:10] office. In
[00:00:13] fact, due to the deep cultural
[00:00:16] connection we have had
[00:00:20] with India,
[00:00:22] Iran has a long cultural history of over
[00:00:25] several thousand years. These
[00:00:29] connections are not something that can be
[00:00:32] destroyed by the passage of time,
[00:00:34] and naturally, we are trying to improve these connections
[00:00:38] day by day, and based on
[00:00:42] that deep culture that we had,
[00:00:45] we can build a new foundation
[00:00:48] again and help each other to prevent
[00:00:52] the totalitarianism that is forming in the world.
[00:00:55] We will try to
[00:00:57] stand strong in the region.
[00:01:17] Considering the war, conflicts, and attacks that
[00:01:21] we are witnessing in Chabahar, how reliable and
[00:01:24] important do you consider Chabahar to be for
[00:01:28] India? We did not
[00:01:31] start the war. They
[00:01:34] started the war.
[00:01:36] Based on no international law, and if
[00:01:39] we want to look at it
[00:01:42] from a human perspective, they attacked
[00:01:46] our country without any framework.
[00:01:49] They martyred our leader. They martyred
[00:01:53] our commanders. They killed our
[00:01:56] innocent children in schools in one day.
[00:02:02] They attacked our scientists, our infrastructure.
[00:02:04] And unfortunately, these actions they
[00:02:08] took are not compatible
[00:02:11] with any international framework or
[00:02:14] human
[00:02:16] laws.
[00:02:18] As a result of the process they created,
[00:02:22] we only defended ourselves. Regarding Chabahar and
[00:02:26] the relationship we can have with India.
[00:02:30] Iran is in a geopolitical position that
[00:02:34] from the perspective of
[00:02:38] public transportation
[00:02:41] and the connections it can
[00:02:44] have in the region, it is a crossroads
[00:02:47] that can connect south to north, north to south, east to west, and
[00:02:51] also connect them to each other
[00:02:54] and is the easiest, most economical, and most
[00:02:58] convenient route that can help the countries
[00:03:01] of the region in creating economic, cultural,
[00:03:05] political, scientific, and social connections.
[00:03:09] We can, and it has been this way
[00:03:12] since ancient times, Iran was a route
[00:03:16] on the Silk Road, and these
[00:03:19] cultural connections were formed through these routes, and
[00:03:23] this can be revived again. We are fully
[00:03:27] ready to revive this route again,
[00:03:30] to join hands. Naturally, this will
[00:03:34] lead to better relationships between
[00:03:37] experiences, skills, and cultures. In such
[00:03:40] a situation, Mr. President, was the
[00:03:44] issue of Indian investments in Chabahar
[00:03:48] Port also raised during your discussions with the
[00:03:52] Prime Minister? In all of our discussions,
[00:03:55] we talked about different approaches and
[00:03:58] directions. India can invest
[00:04:01] there. Currently, it has some
[00:04:04] investments and is making them.
[00:04:08] It can come and
[00:04:11] work in partnership, or from a commercial
[00:04:15] perspective, we can have a partnership,
[00:04:18] a cooperation, so that we can
[00:04:21] interact as partners on various
[00:04:25] issues, and this is something that
[00:04:28] we are ready
[00:04:32] for in all those choices. Mr.
[00:04:35] President, you also delivered a speech at
[00:04:39] the Economic and Trade Forum. To what
[00:04:42] extent is Iran attractive and reliable for investors
[00:04:46] in a situation where it faces sanctions?
[00:04:49] Of course, not international sanctions, but
[00:04:53] US sanctions and unilateral sanctions of
[00:04:57] one country, which legally should not
[00:05:00] be followed by other countries. In such
[00:05:03] a situation, how can Indian companies
[00:05:06] and economic actors operate in Iran or cooperate
[00:05:10] with Iran?
[00:05:12] Look, the goal of BRICS,
[00:05:15] why we are gathered here, is
[00:05:18] to stop this trend that the
[00:05:22] US has started,
[00:05:24] sanctioning any country it wishes. BRICS' intention
[00:05:27] and goal was to break such
[00:05:31] totalitarianism, and BRICS was formed
[00:05:35] to achieve this. In BRICS, our
[00:05:38] type of transactions, our type of trade,
[00:05:42] our type of cooperation is independent of
[00:05:46] any country being able to sanction any
[00:05:50] country it wants. We are here
[00:05:53] to help each other, find a way, and
[00:05:57] support each other to stand against
[00:06:01] this totalitarianism and unilateralism. This
[00:06:04] is the goal of
[00:06:07] this conference, where we are
[00:06:10] sitting with big countries like China,
[00:06:14] Russia, and India to find this
[00:06:18] path and pull the US out
[00:06:21] of unilateralism so we can
[00:06:25] interact with each other.
[00:06:28] However, BRICS' success will only be
[00:06:32] achieved when a joint statement is
[00:06:35] issued, and it seems that the
[00:06:38] differences between the UAE and Iran
[00:06:42] have become a serious obstacle
[00:06:45] to achieving such a joint statement.
[00:06:49] We do not have any problem
[00:06:52] with the UAE. We do not have any problem
[00:06:56] with any of the countries in the
[00:06:59] region. We have a problem with
[00:07:02] the bases that the US has
[00:07:06] in these countries and from which
[00:07:10] they are attacking our country.
[00:07:13] The people of the UAE and
[00:07:17] other countries in the region are
[00:07:19] our brothers. We have lived together
[00:07:22] for a long time. We have
[00:07:26] traded together for a long time.
[00:07:29] We have helped each other for
[00:07:32] a long time. It is the
[00:07:36] US that has established bases there,
[00:07:39] from which it is martyring our
[00:07:43] children, attacking our infrastructure, and
[00:07:47] bombing our leaders, scientists, and people.
[00:07:50] In fact, the problem is that
[00:07:54] friendly and neighboring countries should not
[00:07:57] allow enemies to attack another
[00:08:00] country from their soil.
[00:08:03] We currently have good relations with
[00:08:07] the UAE and can develop them
[00:08:10] with other countries
[00:08:12] as well. We want to have
[00:08:16] close relations with all of them,
[00:08:19] but it is the US that
[00:08:22] does not want this to
[00:08:25] happen. It takes the oil, minerals,
[00:08:28] and mineral reserves of the region,
[00:08:32] and instead, it gives weapons,
[00:08:35] missiles, and planes to countries to
[00:08:39] make us afraid of each other
[00:09:12] or to turn us against each
[00:09:16] other to fight. It takes away
[00:09:19] the wealth of this region and
[00:09:23] destroys security and peace in
[00:09:26] the region. We ourselves
[00:09:29] can join hands with neighboring countries
[00:09:33] and establish peace and security in
[00:09:36] the region. Help each other.
[00:09:38] Help our people. Development, economy, and
[00:09:48] culture. We had it, we have
[00:09:51] it, but what America did made
[00:09:54] us more united. Even the people
[00:09:57] of the region became more hateful
[00:10:01] towards America for what it did, because we were
[00:10:05] oppressed. They attacked our
[00:10:08] country for no reason, just because
[00:10:13] they have power, and they thought
[00:10:16] they could overthrow our entire country
[00:10:20] and install their agents in our
[00:10:23] country. They didn't believe
[00:10:26] that their entire plan, or what
[00:10:30] they did in Syria,
[00:10:32] would fail. They thought that
[00:10:35] within two or three days, by
[00:10:39] martyring our leader, our commanders,
[00:10:42] our directors, and our ministers,
[00:10:45] the country would fall, and
[00:10:47] then they would achieve their sinister
[00:10:51] goals. Not only did that not
[00:10:55] happen, but the people came to
[00:10:59] the scene with power. It has
[00:11:02] been over 190 days that the
[00:11:05] people are in the streets,
[00:11:09] and our military forces, with sacrifice
[00:11:12] and self-devotion, have stood against
[00:11:15] their technology and military power.
[00:11:19] And despite all their efforts to
[00:11:22] overthrow the government, the government, with
[00:11:28] the help of the people and
[00:11:32] the support of the forces, has
[00:11:35] been able to solve its problems.
[00:11:38] And this was unimaginable for
[00:11:41] them. And based
[00:11:43] on this action they took, we
[00:11:47] became more united day by day.
[00:11:50] Even those who were dissatisfied
[00:11:53] in our country, who had problems,
[00:11:57] we had differences with them,
[00:12:00] they also stood for the integrity
[00:12:04] of the country and defended the
[00:12:07] integrity of Iran and protested
[00:12:09] against the aggression that America and
[00:12:13] Israel committed. Even a large
[00:12:17] number of Iranians who were abroad
[00:12:20] returned to Iran. Therefore, you are
[00:12:24] raising a very important point,
[00:12:28] because the West thought it could
[00:12:32] break Iran. Has Iran become
[00:12:35] more united and cohesive
[00:12:38] today? Yes, despite
[00:12:42] all these problems we have,
[00:12:44] you know what America did?
[00:12:48] America first tried to overthrow
[00:12:51] us militarily, but it failed.
[00:12:55] Then it attacked our infrastructure,
[00:12:59] but it didn't work. Now, it has closed
[00:13:03] the way for goods, medicine,
[00:13:06] food, and even trade. It has
[00:13:09] closed the sea route with countries.
[00:13:13] It wants to close the land
[00:13:16] routes as well. It claims human
[00:13:20] path, which is our path,
[00:13:23] it brings weapons, brings equipment,
[00:13:27] and conspires, and does not
[00:13:31] allow security and peace in
[00:13:35] the region. What do you
[00:13:38] think we should have done?
[00:13:42] Naturally, it is a reaction
[00:13:46] that we show against the aggression
[00:13:49] they carried out. We are
[00:13:53] forced, if we are
[00:13:57] alive, we must react.
[00:14:00] We will not react when
[00:14:03] we are dead. We are alive
[00:14:07] and we will react. America
[00:14:11] should lift the siege,
[00:14:14] lift the sanctions. Sanctions mean
[00:14:17] killing patients. It means unemployment.
[00:14:20] It means poverty. It means dissatisfaction.
[00:14:24] It means thousands of problems.
[00:14:27] If it wants to.
[00:14:29] human rights.
[00:14:31] Are they human? They fight in
[00:14:35] the field. What are they fighting
[00:14:38] us for? What did we do
[00:14:41] to them that they are doing
[00:14:44] this to us? And this is a catastrophe,
[00:14:48] and they tell the world that we are after
[00:14:52] nuclear weapons and weapons of mass
[00:15:33] destruction. We are after slaughter. It is they
[00:15:49] who kill innocent people in Gaza, Palestine, Syria,
[00:15:53] and Iran every day. Who is
[00:15:56] doing this? And unfortunately,
[00:16:00] the world looks at their beautiful
[00:16:04] appearance and believes that they are
[00:16:08] telling the truth. Are
[00:16:10] you pursuing nuclear weapons?
[00:16:14] Is nuclear enrichment non-negotiable
[00:16:17] for Iran? What is Iran's
[00:16:20] position on this, especially
[00:16:23] since this is
[00:16:24] exactly the
[00:16:27] issue that President Trump has repeatedly
[00:16:30] emphasized? You know that
[00:16:33] America, with all its propaganda,
[00:16:37] it's just propaganda. We are a
[00:16:40] member of the NPT.
[00:16:44] The rules of the NPT are
[00:16:47] clear. They had the most
[00:16:51] supervision over nuclear weapons and
[00:16:54] nuclear efforts in Iran.
[00:16:58] We were ready for them to
[00:17:01] come and inspect and visit every
[00:17:05] day. We were working within
[00:17:08] the framework of international laws
[00:17:11] and we are still working.
[00:17:15] If we were after nuclear weapons,
[00:17:18] we would not have joined the
[00:17:21] NPT. And they are
[00:17:25] just making excuses to justify
[00:17:28] attacking our land. Our martyred
[00:17:31] leader, who has
[00:17:32] a high
[00:17:36] position in terms of leadership
[00:17:40] and status, and whose words
[00:17:43] are authoritative for the society
[00:17:46] in terms of belief, had repeatedly
[00:17:50] declared that we are not
[00:17:54] pursuing nuclear weapons at
[00:17:57] all. What does
[00:18:00] he mean by "not nuclear"?
[00:18:04] For what reason?
[00:18:07] Well, why aren't you a
[00:18:11] member of international organizations?
[00:18:14] Someone who doesn't respect any of
[00:18:18] these international laws.
[00:18:21] You must have witnessed what
[00:18:24] Israel is doing in Gaza.
[00:18:27] It is bombing more than 70,000
[00:18:30] innocent people in
[00:18:32] a small area in Gaza every
[00:18:35] day. Which awakened
[00:18:39] human conscience accepts such
[00:18:43] behavior towards innocent people?
[00:18:46] They have cut off water, food,
[00:18:49] medicine, and everything else to them.
[00:18:52] The whole world sees and understands
[00:18:56] this. Why does no
[00:18:59] one do anything about Israel?
[00:19:02] What kind of a savage world
[00:19:06] is this where
[00:19:37] some people can easily kill people,
[00:19:40] women and children, hospitals, universities,
[00:19:44] and everyone just watches and even
[00:19:48] defends them every day? It's
[00:19:51] a catastrophe.
[00:19:53] We are against the oppressive
[00:19:55] behavior of Israel and the
[00:19:59] oppressive behavior that America is
[00:20:03] showing. We say they should
[00:20:05] not oppress, they should not
[00:20:09] kill innocent people. Because we are
[00:20:12] saying this, we should also
[00:20:14] be killed. This is more
[00:20:17] tyrannical, and the world and
[00:20:21] people see this and
[00:20:25] just watch, sometimes they sympathize.
[00:20:29] Mr. President, I have been
[00:20:32] following the developments related to the
[00:20:36] Iran-America dispute for a long
[00:20:39] time. Please give your assessment
[00:20:43] of the war situation. Are
[00:20:47] we still in a state of
[00:20:50] war, or is the war in
[00:20:53] a state of suspension, while
[00:20:56] both the ceasefire and negotiations
[00:21:00] have failed? We talked.
[00:21:03] We are talking for the umpteenth
[00:21:07] time. When they launched the first
[00:21:10] attack and it right thing to do.
[00:21:14] It does not kill humans.
[00:21:16] It does not deprive humans
[00:21:20] of life and development. It's
[00:21:23] barbarism and savagery if we do
[00:21:27] such a thing. We are looking
[00:21:31] for this,
[00:21:32] that not only
[00:21:35] Saudi Arabia, Turkey,
[00:21:38] Pakistan, all the countries of
[00:21:42] the region can sit together and
[00:21:45] preserve our security.
[00:21:49] They did things
[00:22:12] to overthrow the government. Right now,
[00:22:15] in our country, they want to
[00:22:19] And we are forced,
[00:22:22] when it attacks us for no
[00:22:24] reason,
[00:22:27] we didn't attack them, we
[00:22:30] were forced to defend ourselves.
[00:22:34] Well, if we want to defend
[00:22:37] ourselves, where should we
[00:22:40] attack? The same places
[00:22:44] where they got up and attacked
[00:22:47] us. Naturally,
[00:23:20] Arab countries against Iran so
[00:23:22] that we fight each other.
[00:23:26] We fight, and they take
[00:23:30] our oil, our resources.
[00:23:33] Then they give weapons to those
[00:23:36] they took from. They
[00:23:39] want us to build weapons
[00:23:43] and kill each other so
[00:23:46] they can easily do their own
[00:23:50] work. What logic is there
[00:23:53] in contact with the new Iranian
[00:23:56] is talking to
[00:24:00] them. What does he mean
[00:24:04] by the new Iranian leaders?
[00:24:07] Who is President Trump talking
[00:24:11] to? He did,
[00:24:14] but its deadline expired on August
[00:24:18] 17th. Given that negotiations mediated
[00:24:21] by Pakistan did not succeed,
[00:24:24] has Oman entered the mediation
[00:24:27] process of negotiations?
[00:24:30] Pakistan is our brother,
[00:24:33] friend, and neighbor, and it has
[00:24:36] made great efforts in this
[00:24:39] regard to establish peace and security
[00:24:43] in the region. Qatar was also
[00:24:46] helping in this regard so that
[00:25:50] the agreement reached
[00:25:51] in Pakistan could
[00:25:55] be finalized. I don't know
[00:25:58] what the problem is with what
[00:26:02] we wrote in Pakistan that they
[00:26:05] want us to sit down and
[00:26:09] talk again. What illogical
[00:26:13] statement did we
[00:26:16] make there, or what did
[00:26:19] we say that was outside
[00:26:23] the logical, legal, and scientific
[00:26:26] frameworks of the world,
[00:26:30] that today we have to
[00:26:33] sit down again and say something
[00:26:37] else? The same thing we
[00:26:41] said, and it's based on
[00:26:44] that in the region, every
[00:26:48] country should arm itself so
[00:26:51] that we are afraid of each
[00:26:55] other? People are not afraid
[00:26:58] of each other. As a result, this America
[00:27:03] and what they do is to
[00:27:06] create division and hostility.
[00:27:09] Since I took responsibility,
[00:27:13] my whole effort has been
[00:27:16] to create unity and cohesion
[00:27:19] within the country and not to
[00:27:22] turn these differences of opinion,
[00:27:25] which exist between people
[00:27:29] and are natural, into hostility,
[00:27:33] and to establish friendship,
[00:27:37] alliance, love, and humanity
[00:27:40] with neighboring countries. This
[00:27:44] is the effort we are making,
[00:27:47] and they do not want us
[00:27:51] to achieve this goal. So
[00:27:54] why doesn't Iran, Mr.
[00:27:57] President, get closer to the
[00:28:01] Arab world? This region
[00:28:04] is part of the Islamic
[00:28:07] world. Why this has caused
[00:28:10] some resentment towards the countries
[00:28:14] of the region. Is this resentment logical?
[00:28:18] They should be resentful that
[00:28:22] they allowed the enemy to be
[00:28:25] stationed on their We are ready
[00:28:27] for dialogue. It is very
[00:28:31] difficult for our society. Imagine
[00:28:34] a large society or a family
[00:28:37] where someone comes and martyrs
[00:28:41] a long time?
[00:28:44] and then expects the others to
[00:28:47] come and just accept it so
[00:28:50] easily. Our people are very
[00:28:54] upset about what happened, and this
[00:28:58] catastrophe they created in our country
[00:29:02] will not be
[00:29:04] forgotten so easily. It's
[00:29:07] soil and martyr our innocent people,
[00:29:10] and we should do nothing.
[00:29:14] Okay. Very good,
[00:29:18] but the result of this situation
[00:29:21] is the siege or blockage of
[00:29:24] the Strait of Hormuz, and
[00:29:28] the world is suffering from this situation.
[00:29:34] India will certainly feel the consequences
[00:29:36] of this. What is the situation
[00:29:39] of the Strait of Hormuz?
[00:29:43] President Trump said he wants
[00:29:46] to change its name to the
[00:29:49] Strait of Trump. Therefore,
[00:29:52] what is the situation of Hormuz,
[00:29:56] and has the war also
[00:30:00] expanded with the
[00:30:02] help of the Houthis and
[00:30:06] Hezbollah to Bab al-Mandab?
[00:30:09] What is the current situation,
[00:30:13] Mr. President? Look, neither
[00:30:16] Hezbollah nor Hamas,
[00:30:19] for themselves
[00:30:22] We talked to all of them.
[00:30:25] From the very
[00:30:29] first day, nor we,
[00:30:33] I don't think they initiated
[00:30:36] this. They are all defending
[00:30:40] themselves. Who among them initiated
[00:30:43] the attack? They are attacking,
[00:30:46] and they are forced to defend
[00:30:49] themselves. For what reason
[00:30:52] does America come and block
[00:30:54] our way of life in the
[00:30:57] region, and when it blocks
