[00:00:08] Thank you so much for this opportunity. Now, in recent weeks, [00:00:11] allegations of antisemitism against Iran have [00:00:13] intensified with several European countries, including Germany [00:00:17] and the UK as well as Australia, accusing [00:00:20] Iran of plotting to harm Jewish individuals [00:00:24] and property. Canada's CBS also aired a detailed [00:00:28] report on the matter a few days ago. [00:00:53] European countries, including Germany, the UK, and Australia, have accused Iran [00:00:57] of planning to harm Jewish individuals and [00:01:00] property. Canada's CBS also ran a detailed report a few [00:01:04] days ago about this, and, of course, without providing [00:01:07] any evidence or documents, accused Iran [00:01:10] of planning anti-Jewish movements in Europe, [00:01:14] Australia, and Canada. What is Iran's stance on [00:01:16] these accusations? Look, the accusation of [00:01:20] anti-Semitism does not stick to Iran [00:01:23] and Iranians. Fundamentally, the phenomenon of anti-Semitism [00:01:27] is a European phenomenon. It has [00:01:31] no connection to Iranian religion, traditions, culture, [00:01:34] or civilization. [00:01:38] They constantly repeat a cliché [00:01:41] accusation, [00:01:43] and unfortunately, the mass media [00:01:47] also promotes it, while [00:01:51] if they pay the slightest attention to the facts, they [00:01:54] will realize that, in fact, the kindest [00:01:58] people to Jews have been Iranians. You just need to [00:02:02] look at the statistics to see that in the city of [00:02:05] Yazd alone, we have 13 or 14 [00:02:09] Jewish synagogues. Throughout [00:02:12] Iran, there are about 100 synagogues. [00:02:15] You [00:02:19] can look at the tombs of prophets [00:02:21] and Jewish elders that are scattered throughout Iran. [00:02:25] Despite the fact that [00:02:28] we are facing an all-out war with [00:02:32] a regime that falsely claims to represent Jews, [00:02:36] how many instances of aggression [00:02:39] against [00:02:42] Jewish holy sites have we seen? If there [00:02:46] have been rare cases, [00:02:48] they have been dealt with immediately. This issue [00:02:52] really needs to be paid [00:02:55] attention to. Compare it with what is happening [00:02:58] in European countries. Why are they fundamentally accusing Iran? [00:03:02] They are trying to attribute their own problems to others. [00:03:06] We should ask Europe what they have done, [00:03:10] what culture they have created that every day we [00:03:13] hear news about attacks on Jewish cemeteries, that synagogues [00:03:17] in European capitals must be [00:03:20] covered with barbed wire or that they [00:03:23] recently remove their signs to protect themselves [00:03:27] from attacks. Are these [00:03:31] related to Iran? Are those incidents happening in Tehran [00:03:34] and other Iranian cities? Therefore, European countries [00:03:38] really need to come to their senses. [00:03:41] Part of these incidents in [00:03:44] Europe stem from the crimes committed by [00:03:47] the Zionist regime who constantly associate [00:03:51] themselves with Judaism. However, the Iranian [00:03:54] people are more understanding and civilized than [00:03:58] to attribute the actions of a genocidal regime [00:04:01] to the followers of the Jewish faith. [00:04:05] Decision. [00:04:08] I extend my greetings and respect to you, Dr. Despite the ongoing [00:04:11] mediations and diplomatic activities, [00:04:15] the head of the American terrorist government hostilely stated [00:04:18] that a few Iranian nuclear facilities remain [00:04:22] until we take action against them. I wanted to ask what legal [00:04:26] follow-ups Iran is pursuing regarding these statements, [00:04:29] as even verbally, this is an aggression, and what action [00:04:32] is being taken regarding this [00:04:35] aggression? We will certainly [00:04:38] document [00:04:41] flagrant violations of international law and the UN [00:04:44] Charter. But we have [00:04:48] learned from experience [00:04:51] that the world [00:04:55] is all talk. We [00:04:58] are sorry that the United Nations, [00:05:01] the Security Council, the Board of Governors of the International [00:05:05] Atomic Energy Agency in the face of such flagrant [00:05:09] criticisms, such threats that are contrary [00:05:15] to the principle [00:05:15] of, look, [00:05:20] America is practically the biggest threat [00:05:22] to the non-proliferation regime. [00:05:26] The mere expression of a threat against [00:05:30] a country, an implied threat that [00:05:34] we might use such-and-such a weapon, is [00:05:38] a kind of encouragement to [00:05:41] violate the Non-Proliferation Treaty. [00:05:44] In any case, other nuclear-weapon states [00:05:47] are carefully observing [00:05:50] America's behavior. America is creating a pattern [00:05:54] at the international level that will result in threatening [00:05:58] international peace and security for all countries. [00:06:01] Be sure that the threats against us [00:06:04] will strengthen our resolve [00:06:07] to enhance our capabilities [00:06:10] for self-defense. [00:06:16] Hello, Mr. Baghaei. Good day. Mr. Baghaei, I wanted [00:06:19] to ask you about this issue, considering [00:06:23] that we are witnessing a acceleration [00:06:25] in the negotiation process in [00:06:29] recent days. However, we are seeing a dual [00:06:33] contradiction from American officials. On one hand, [00:06:36] Mr. Roby and Mr. Trump are still threatening Iran. For example, last night, [00:06:39] Mr. Trump said, "Because I am kind, I have not [00:06:43] finished Iran's work, but I must finish Iran's work at some point." [00:06:47] But on the other hand, Mr. Vance writes letters to [00:06:51] Iran and to the Secretary of the National Council, and it is now said [00:06:54] that the content of the letter or the tone of the letter was [00:06:58] not very harsh. How do you assess this duality? Is this a deception [00:07:02] operation that we have seen before in two previous wars? [00:07:06] Does this process affect Iran's [00:07:09] trust in negotiations or not? Thanks. Well, [00:07:13] any operation, assuming it is a deception, which is not [00:07:17] at all surprising from this group, has two sides: one deceiver [00:07:21] and one deceived. Well, we are not [00:07:23] deceived and we will [00:07:27] not be. This is not our first experience [00:07:31] dealing with American counterparts. We certainly [00:07:34] have not forgotten that just [00:07:38] half an hour before their military aggression on June 13, [00:07:43] the US President tweeted and announced that negotiations [00:07:47] with Iranians were still ongoing. We [00:07:50] are fully aware of what has happened in these past two years [00:07:53] and before that, the experience of 2015-2018. [00:07:57] We consider all of these. [00:08:00] Look, [00:08:05] the fact that at the level of the American [00:08:08] ruling establishment, there may be [00:08:11] different voices. Voices that sometimes [00:08:14] may reflect [00:08:17] the general public's demand for an independent [00:08:20] approach to developments in the Middle East. [00:08:24] We cannot conclude that American society [00:08:27] is tired of [00:08:30] the parasitic behavior of the Zionist regime towards [00:08:34] America and is angry about it. We are witnessing [00:08:37] this in both opinion polls and demonstrations [00:08:41] taking place in America. Therefore, [00:08:44] it is not far-fetched that some [00:08:47] within the American ruling establishment have reached [00:08:51] this conclusion, even if they don't express it, [00:08:53] or sometimes they do express [00:08:56] that America is sacrificing its credibility, [00:09:00] wealth, and position for a party [00:09:03] that thinks of nothing but eternal war in [00:09:06] our region. The Zionist regime has proven [00:09:09] that [00:09:19] with these descriptions, [00:09:21] well, we can [00:09:24] take different viewpoints into consideration. [00:09:28] However, I emphasize that for us, the actions of [00:09:32] the US government are important. These contradictory [00:09:35] stances indicate confusion among themselves [00:09:38] and also leave the international community [00:09:42] questioning who truly [00:09:45] is the real player in the governance [00:09:49] and decision-making system in America. Who should be talked [00:09:52] to in America? Does [00:09:55] all roads eventually lead to Tel Aviv? [00:09:58] This is something that America must decide as soon [00:10:01] as possible for its own credibility and standing. [00:10:05] A student. [00:10:08] Hello, Dr. Baghaei. Good day. The advisor to [00:10:11] the UAE President stated that our trust [00:10:15] in Iran is gone, and it wasn't us who destroyed it. Given [00:10:19] the UAE's role in the aggressive attacks against Iran, [00:10:22] what is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' stance on this? [00:10:43] is not prudence, and of course, they can be prudent, provided [00:10:47] that they [00:10:48] decide [00:10:52] to abandon their wrong past approaches. Iran cannot remain silent [00:10:55] in the face of the use of the territory of some [00:10:58] countries in the region for aggression and [00:11:02] transgression against its national sovereignty, [00:11:05] against its people, and not respond. What happened [00:11:09] in these past eight months [00:11:12] was the result of the excessive trust [00:11:16] and reliance of some countries in the region [00:11:19] on the military presence of the US in their territory. [00:11:23] Unfortunately, some countries not only did not prevent [00:11:26] the US from using their [00:11:30] facilities for aggression against Iran, but also [00:11:33] encouraged it. Trust [00:11:35] requires bilateral action and [00:11:39] movement. The Islamic Republic of Iran [00:11:42] has repeatedly stated that this is our [00:11:45] sincere and principled position that we have no [00:11:49] enmity with any country in the region. [00:11:52] We believe that for the creation of sustainable [00:11:56] security, the countries of the region must cooperate [00:11:59] with each other and build trust. At the same time, the reasonable [00:12:03] expectation of Iranians is that the countries [00:12:06] of the region will not allow their soil and facilities [00:12:10] to be misused for aggression against [00:12:14] a large neighboring country. [00:12:17] Mr. Baghaei, recently, several Kuwaiti citizens and an Iranian [00:12:21] citizen were sentenced to death and life [00:12:25] imprisonment for allegedly collaborating with Iran [00:12:28] and attempting to harm Kuwaiti officials. What is the Foreign [00:12:32] Ministry's stance on this? Our embassy issued [00:12:35] a statement in this regard. [00:12:38] Absolutely, this accusation [00:12:41] is rejected. We call [00:12:45] on the Kuwaiti government to stop harassing [00:12:48] its citizens on the pretext of sympathy [00:12:52] and empathy with Iran. The accusations that [00:12:56] have been leveled against Iran or Iranians [00:12:59] in the past year or two, especially [00:13:02] in recent months, [00:13:04] have no basis. They are merely [00:13:08] repetitions of clichés against Iran. As we [00:13:12] said, we adhere to the principle of good neighborliness, [00:13:16] respect for national sovereignty and territorial [00:13:18] integrity of countries. Unfortunately, we have witnessed [00:13:22] similar actions in Bahrain, not just in Kuwait. These [00:13:26] violate both fundamental human rights principles [00:13:30] and further undermine the principle of good neighborliness. [00:13:33] Hello, Dr. [00:13:38] Good day. As you yourself [00:13:42] mentioned, in [00:13:45] recent days, we have witnessed constant [00:13:48] verbal attacks and counterattacks [00:13:51] between Iran and the United States. [00:13:55] Is there a feeling in Tehran that [00:13:58] these attacks might [00:14:00] lead to a renewed conflict [00:14:03] and war? Thank you. [00:14:06] War is happening right now as we speak. [00:14:09] The economic siege of Iran, [00:14:13] the threats against Iran, these [00:14:17] are all part of the war that [00:14:21] has existed for these eight months. We must [00:14:25] be ready for any eventuality because it is about defending [00:14:29] the homeland, defending the territorial integrity [00:14:32] and dignity of a civilization spanning several thousand years. [00:14:35] Therefore, in any situation, [00:14:39] even when our friends are [00:14:42] talking to mediators about diplomatic [00:14:46] processes, and in situations [00:14:49] where diplomacy is not ongoing, in any case, [00:14:53] we must be prepared [00:15:12] for all scenarios. Given the repetition of [00:15:16] the UAE's claims about the Iranian Triple Islands by [00:15:20] the Canadian Prime Minister and the threatening remarks [00:15:23] by Anwar Gargash about the military option not being ruled out [00:15:27] against Iran, can we say that these stances are due to [00:15:31] a kind of emboldenment of the UAE under the influence [00:15:35] of recent regional developments and the military aggression [00:15:40] of the US and the Zionist regime against Iran? What is your assessment of [00:15:43] this approach and message? We also announced [00:15:46] our position on that joint statement [00:15:50] by one of the Emirati officials with Canada [00:15:54] and elaborated on it in a tweet. [00:15:57] I won't repeat it to save time, [00:16:01] but to put it very briefly, I will [00:16:04] quote from Yaghma-ye Jandaqi in one reference: [00:16:25] Is it possible that Iran agrees, within the framework of [00:16:28] reaching an agreement, to transfer [00:16:32] 60% enriched uranium to a third country? And [00:16:35] was this issue indeed raised during the Doha [00:16:39] negotiations? Is it possible that Iran, to reach [00:16:41] an agreement, might agree to [00:16:45] export 60% enriched uranium to a third country? [00:16:49] And was this issue even raised in the Doha negotiations? [00:17:03] Good day, Mr. Baghaei. Thank you, Mr. [00:17:05] Baghaei. The murmur of public demand [00:17:09] for a change in nuclear doctrine is growing louder [00:17:12] day by day. Two nights ago, the Secretary of the Supreme [00:17:16] National Security Council said that no decision [00:17:19] has yet been made at the system level in this regard. How [00:17:23] is this issue raised at your negotiation table? [00:17:27] I mean, is it just at the media level, [00:17:30] or is the issue conveyed in such a way that the other [00:17:33] side, in their assessment for decision-making, [00:17:37] understands the seriousness of the demand, at least [00:17:41] from the Iranian people, and considers the power [00:17:45] of this demand on decision-making bodies in Iran? [00:17:48] I think the other side [00:17:51] is observing the discussions and [00:17:54] discourse in the media, among elites, and among the general [00:17:58] public. We don't need [00:18:00] to pretend about what is [00:18:04] happening [00:18:07] in discussions and discourse. This is a real [00:18:10] issue that our people, in light of [00:18:13] the events that occurred in the past two years, [00:18:17] and again, I emphasize, the events [00:18:20] of the past 12 or 13 years [00:18:23] since the negotiations began and led to the nuclear [00:18:27] agreement in 2015 and the developments after that, [00:18:31] well, they raise a logical [00:18:35] question, which is that [00:18:38] despite all of Iran's efforts [00:18:41] to show that its nuclear [00:18:45] program is peaceful, the other side has constantly [00:18:49] been looking for excuses. This is [00:18:52] a real issue. [00:18:54] The [00:18:57] other side assassinated the issuer [00:19:01] of the fatwa prohibiting the production [00:19:04] and use of nuclear weapons. [00:19:08] I said before that the reason [00:19:11] for the emergence of this discussion, not only in our society [00:19:15] but also at the international level, is none other [00:19:18] than America and the Zionist regime. Iran's nuclear [00:19:21] program has always been peaceful and remains [00:19:25] peaceful. This has been proven [00:19:28] many times. The fact that [00:19:31] the other side, based on a big lie that they [00:19:35] started 20 years ago, constantly [00:19:37] and no matter how much [00:19:43] repeats the claim of nuclear weapons or the [00:19:45] danger of Iranian nuclear weapons, [00:19:49] well, this fuels the discussion that they are pretending [00:19:53] to be asleep, [00:19:57] we argue and provide evidence that Iran's nuclear [00:20:00] program is peaceful, they are not going to take [00:20:03] it seriously. So, this is a real issue. [00:20:07] However, as was announced, at the decision-making [00:20:11] level, we are still a member [00:20:14] of the NPT, and as long as Iran [00:20:17] is a member [00:20:20] of the NPT, it considers itself bound [00:20:23] and committed to upholding the commitments [00:20:27] contained in that document. [00:20:31] What is Iran's position on this? Well, they say that one blindness [00:20:34] begets another. Look, the Zionist [00:20:37] regime is an illegitimate regime that was founded [00:20:41] on the usurpation of a land, and [00:20:45] well, naturally, it seeks [00:20:48] to gain allies and create [00:20:52] division and tension among the countries of [00:20:55] the region and Islamic countries. You know better than I do [00:20:59] that from the very beginning when this issue was raised, [00:21:02] both Somalia as the main country [00:21:05] and a country that is recognized by the entire [00:21:08] world at the United Nations, protested [00:21:12] strongly. The Arab League, the African [00:21:14] Union, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, and [00:21:18] many Western and European countries protested [00:21:22] this process because they know that this [00:21:25] process is aimed at destroying peace [00:21:29] and security in this region. [00:21:33] Therefore, both Islamic countries [00:21:36] and African countries must be more careful [00:21:39] that the mischief of the [00:21:43] Zionist regime does not [00:21:46] threaten peace and security in that region even more [00:21:59] Considering recent regional developments and the changing [00:22:02] role and extent of America's influence [00:22:05] on the foreign policy of Iran's neighboring countries, [00:22:08] in past years, it played an active role in holding [00:22:12] regional diplomatic initiatives and meetings, [00:22:16] such as the Contact Group. However, it seems that [00:22:20] this trend has faded in recent years. Does the Ministry of [00:22:23] Foreign Affairs have a plan to revive regional meetings, [00:22:27] resume diplomatic initiatives, and strengthen [00:22:30] Iran's role in the new regional developments and arrangements? [00:22:33] Yes. [00:22:37] No, we have done it. Last year, [00:22:40] we utilized [00:22:43] several important opportunities, including [00:22:47] one of the Shanghai meetings, to hold [00:22:50] a quadrilateral meeting. [00:22:54] As a prelude to holding a quadrilateral [00:22:57] meeting, probably in the coming [00:23:00] months. [00:23:03] The Director-General for Bilateral Affairs has [00:23:06] had trips to regional countries, to Turkey, to [00:23:10] Pakistan. We are pursuing this matter [00:23:12] with diligence and seriousness. [00:23:15] The Moscow format [00:23:19] was held again in October, [00:23:22] and on its sidelines, consultations were held to ensure [00:23:25] that this process continues [00:23:28] strongly. Therefore, developments [00:23:32] related to the region have not made us neglect [00:23:36] the importance of the processes related to [00:23:39] Afghanistan and regional security related to Afghanistan. [00:23:42] Iran First, please. Hello, [00:23:46] Mr. Baghaei. Good day. The Iranian Foreign [00:23:50] Minister is currently in Turkmenistan. My question [00:23:53] to you is about the relations and [00:23:56] level of relations between Iran and Turkmenistan, [00:23:59] especially in economic fields, given that [00:24:02] Iran is facing sanctions. How can economic relations [00:24:06] between Iran and Turkmenistan facilitate the situation, [00:24:09] and is the economic deputy of the foreign minister accompanying [00:24:13] him on this trip? Yes, the economic [00:24:16] deputy is there, [00:24:20] as are representatives from other economic [00:24:22] and related agencies, including the Ministry of Oil. [00:24:26] Our relationship with our neighbors is strategic [00:24:29] for us. Our neighbors are [00:24:33] one of Iran's territorial [00:24:37] and geopolitical advantages. And thank [00:24:40] God, in recent years, based on [00:24:44] the neighborhood policy, relations have been improving [00:24:47] day by day. Including in... [00:24:56] This is a bilateral trip. Discussions will [00:24:59] be held on bilateral cooperation in various [00:25:03] fields, including economic, trade, and energy. [00:25:06] And we hope that the outcome [00:25:09] of this trip [00:25:12] will certainly be effective [00:25:16] and beneficial for improving economic relations between the two countries. [00:25:28] Hello, Dr. Good day. I would like to say that [00:25:32] in recent days, after the statements [00:25:35] of the German Chancellor, Dr. Araghchi tweeted, [00:25:38] and in this tweet, he emphasized [00:25:42] that if another war [00:25:44] or conflict actually occurs, it will have no restrictions, [00:25:48] and Iran will have no red lines. Does [00:25:52] this mean that in the event of [00:25:56] another military war, the scope of this war [00:25:59] could extend to American interests and bases in Europe? [00:26:03] Well, you certainly don't expect me to elaborate [00:26:07] on the minister's statements. [00:26:09] I think it was [00:26:11] very clear. [00:26:15] First of all, those who impose war on Iran [00:26:19] or have imposed it, and those [00:26:21] who in any way participate, [00:26:25] cooperate, or support it, should certainly [00:26:29] not expect Iranians to defend [00:26:37] themselves. The fact that, both according to international [00:26:40] law and human [00:26:43] reason, [00:26:45] any party that in any way [00:26:49] participates in the preparation, planning, and execution [00:26:52] of military aggression against a country [00:26:56] is considered a participant [00:26:59] in an internationally unlawful act. [00:27:07] Therefore, any party that [00:27:10] cooperates with America and the Zionist [00:27:14] regime in any aggression should certainly [00:27:17] not consider itself safe from Iran's [00:27:21] powerful response. Breaking [00:27:23] news. [00:27:26] Hello, Mr. Baghaei. Good day. Mr. Baghaei, American [00:27:30] officials have again [00:27:51] shown that they only surrender and are humble [00:27:54] in the face of will and power. [00:27:57] That too is outside the bounds of humanity. [00:28:01] We have only learned [00:28:11] from God. The Atomic Energy Organization announced [00:28:15] at the Security Council meeting that any path [00:28:19] to resolve Iran's nuclear file must include [00:28:22] agency inspections. Meanwhile, the US is also seeking [00:28:26] to add demands in the nuclear field to the negotiations. [00:28:30] What is the Foreign Ministry's position on this, [00:28:34] and under what conditions will Iran agree to renewed [00:28:38] inspections? The Director-General of the Agency [00:28:41] owes a lot to Iran. He must settle his [00:28:44] previous debts. Then he should [00:28:48] talk about the future process. [00:28:50] A major debt of the Director-General [00:28:54] of the Agency is [00:28:56] that in dealing [00:29:00] with the criminal and illegal actions of [00:29:04] the US and the Zionist regime in attacking Iran's [00:29:07] nuclear facilities, he did not [00:29:11] take a position, and furthermore, by [00:29:14] preparing ambiguous reports, [00:29:17] he in a way created [00:29:20] a climate to [00:29:24] justify the crimes of the US and [00:29:27] the Zionist regime. The credibility of the International [00:29:31] Atomic Energy Agency has unfortunately been [00:29:35] severely damaged from that time [00:29:37] until now, and in this regard, [00:29:40] the Director-General himself has direct [00:29:44] responsibility. We are currently in [00:29:47] the stage of discussions through [00:29:50] mediators to advance Iran's demands. [00:29:54] Everything depends on whether the other [00:29:56] side, the American side, which started [00:30:00] this dirty game, [00:30:03] implements Iran's demands and conditions. Then [00:30:06] we will have to talk [00:30:08] about the next steps. [00:30:12] Come forward, PANA. [00:30:14] Please. [00:30:20] Hello, [00:30:24] Dr. Good day. My question to you [00:30:28] is that we saw that at the G20 Foreign [00:30:31] Ministers' meeting, [00:30:35] it was largely agreed to place the issue of Iran [00:30:38] and the Strait of Hormuz at the top of the agenda. [00:30:42] However, the differences over Iran and the Middle [00:30:45] East are so deep that we even saw that the usual [00:30:49] group photo at multilateral meetings was not held, [00:30:53] and no joint statement was issued. In your opinion, [00:30:56] what is the main reason for America's failure to build
