00:00:1511:30 PM and some news.
00:00:18The foreign ministers of Iran and Mauritania discussed the latest regional developments
00:00:21and ways to develop bilateral cooperation.
00:00:25Mr. Araghchi in a telephone conversation with Mohamed Salem Merzoug, the Foreign Minister
00:00:29of Mauritania, explained the latest situation of diplomatic efforts to reduce
00:00:33tension in the region after the aggression of the US and the Zionist
00:00:36regime against Iran. Both sides also
00:00:40emphasized the expansion of bilateral relations and strengthening cooperation in
00:00:43international forums. emphasized.
00:00:45Amnesty International and
00:00:50Human Rights Watch
00:00:53described the killing of the Lebanese journalist by the Zionist regime
00:00:56as a war crime. These two organizations.
00:01:07Zainab Faraj resulted in an independent investigation into her death as
00:01:10a war crime. According to this report, three months ago,
00:01:14after an air attack, the Zionist regime's army
00:01:17prevented relief forces from reaching Amal Khalil while she was still alive.
00:01:21He prevented her.
00:01:24The Deputy Secretary of the Security Council of Russia
00:01:28criticized the silence of Japanese officials regarding America's role in
00:01:31the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, calling
00:01:35this approach a disgrace.
00:01:39Dmitry Medvedev, in response to this
00:01:42silence, described Japan as an American puppet and
00:01:45wrote: It is a shame that in the memorial ceremony
00:01:48for the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, neither the Prime Minister
00:01:52of Japan nor any of the officials of this country even once
00:01:55mentioned who dropped these bombs.
00:01:58In this ceremony, Japanese officials, without directly
00:02:02referring to America's role, spoke about the consequences
00:02:06of using nuclear weapons.
00:02:09The Secretary-General of the United Nations, in his message on the anniversary
00:02:13of the bombing of Hiroshima, without naming
00:02:16America, emphasized the necessity of preventing the recurrence
00:02:20of the use of nuclear weapons. In the American atomic attack
00:02:24on these two Japanese cities, more than
00:02:27350,000 people were killed.
00:02:34And a power outage in one of the communication centers of the
00:02:37British railway network caused widespread disruption
00:02:41to train movements and the cancellation of many
00:02:44journeys in vast parts of this country. The British National
00:02:48Railway Network announced that this disruption was caused by a power
00:02:52outage in one of the communication centers and
00:02:55train movements on many routes were
00:02:58delayed, cancelled, or had their schedules changed.
00:03:02The British National Railway Network has not yet specified
00:03:05the main cause of the power outage.
00:03:35very noisy today in various media
00:03:38was the revelation of the Washington Post
00:03:41about the conflict and disagreement between Trump and Hegset.
00:03:45This is a topic that many media have talked about.
00:03:48That Hegset did not sufficiently inform
00:03:51Trump about the shortage of ammunition before
00:03:55the war with Iran. This is a topic that various
00:03:59media are talking about.
00:04:01According to
00:04:04the American newspaper website, Washington Post, the disappointment of the US President with
00:04:08the war with Iran reached its peak last week
00:04:12at Camp David. Trump there asked Secretary of War Pitt
00:04:15Hegset to explain why he had apparently misled
00:04:18him about a severe shortage of ammunition which now threatens to
00:04:22limit military options against Iran.
00:04:25This confrontation occurred on the sidelines
00:04:29of a cabinet meeting at Camp David on Friday
00:04:33where Trump yelled at Hegset and said
00:04:36he thought the ammunition problem had been resolved.
00:04:39A source stated that the shortage of ammunition, especially
00:04:43guided long-range missiles and air defense interceptors,
00:04:47was part of the reasons that caused
00:04:50Trump to withdraw from further widespread
00:04:54attacks against Iran in recent days.
00:04:57Although the United States has announced new production
00:05:01contracts for some of the most critical ammunition, including
00:05:05Patriot air defense missiles, the production of this ammunition
00:05:09itself may take up to two years
00:05:12and there is no immediate solution to address these
00:05:16shortages. The Washington Post previously
00:05:19reported that in the first month of the conflict alone,
00:05:23the United States fired over 850 Tomahawk
00:05:27cruise missiles and over 1,000
00:05:30Patriot and THAAD systems. An
00:05:34American official stated that the United States used
00:05:37more than 1,300 tactical ballistic
00:05:41missiles in the early weeks of the war.
00:05:44According to an informed source and a Reuters
00:05:48report earlier this week, the stockpiles of
00:05:52ATACMS missiles, which are short-range missiles
00:05:55that Ukraine also needs, are so depleted
00:05:59that almost nothing is left.
00:06:03The scarcity of defense ammunition
00:06:05has had effects beyond the Middle East.
00:06:08Ukraine is running out of air defense
00:06:12stockpiles and there are few
00:06:15options for replacement from Western stockpiles.
00:06:19This has made the country vulnerable
00:06:22to Russian long-range attacks.
00:06:26The same American official told the Washington Post that the lack
00:06:29of interceptor missiles has also changed how the United States
00:06:33decides to use ammunition against incoming
00:06:36threats, such that decisions are now
00:06:40made based on an assessment of the threat's trajectory
00:06:44and its level of importance. This tactical change
00:06:48was first reported by NBC.
00:06:52At Camp David, when Trump interrogated
00:06:55Hegset about the depleted arms stockpiles,
00:06:58the Secretary of War defended himself and blamed
00:07:02his deputy for not fully informing
00:07:05Trump about the issue.
00:07:08This conversation and challenge illustrate
00:07:11Trump's growing disappointment with the Secretary of War
00:07:15who was a key supporter of military action against Iran
00:07:18and had convinced Trump that this war
00:07:22would result in a quick and relatively easy
00:07:25victory. The strain on ammunition stockpiles
00:07:29is not a new challenge. Before the war began, General
00:07:33Keane had warned Trump that the United States lacked
00:07:36the necessary arms support to sustain
00:07:40a war of attrition. However, the speed and
00:07:43massive volume of ammunition consumed by both
00:07:47sides has severely depleted key offensive
00:07:50and defensive US ammunition. In the period from
00:07:53February 28 to April 7,
00:07:57which coincided with the first day of the ceasefire,
00:08:00the United States struck over 13,000
00:08:04targets inside Iran and simultaneously
00:08:08defended against over 1,000
00:08:11projectiles
00:08:15and drones launched by Iran.
00:08:19The United States launched
00:08:22Operation Epic Rage while already facing
00:08:25critical ammunition shortages. In the
00:08:29summer of 2025, the US Army
00:08:33consumed over a quarter of its entire inventory
00:08:36of THAAD interceptors during the 12-day
00:08:39Israel-Gaza war and Operation Midnight Hammer,
00:08:43in which US forces attacked Iranian nuclear sites.
00:08:47Brad Bowman, a veteran Army officer and
00:08:51senior director at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies,
00:08:54said that the current conflict has exacerbated
00:08:57previous shortages and deficiencies. Bowman
00:09:01noted that despite Hexad and the Pentagon announcing
00:09:04numerous industrial cooperation frameworks to revive
00:09:08armories, defense companies would not
00:09:12begin production until formal contracts were signed
00:09:15and funding was allocated by Congress. As a result,
00:09:19it could take years to replenish these
00:09:22stockpiles, he added.
00:09:26Often, there is a gap of several
00:09:29years between resource allocation,
00:09:32contract signing, and final delivery.
00:09:36You cannot just press a button
00:09:39and immediately deliver ammunition to troops
00:09:43on the front
00:09:44lines.
00:09:47This was the Washington Post report about the conflict and
00:09:50disagreement between Hexad and Trump over the shortage
00:09:54of ammunition, a topic that many media outlets, as
00:09:57I said, have covered. We want
00:10:22Barzgar. Many are giving different
00:10:26analyses of the Washington Post report. Of course, I should
00:10:30also mention that Trump himself has taken a stance and said that those
00:10:33who leak this information will be prosecuted.
00:10:37After all, it seems that some disagreements
00:10:41that existed have intensified.
00:10:44One issue that is being raised is how much
00:10:48this could be a psychological operation, because some
00:10:51people, before Trump's stance, pointed out that
00:10:55perhaps they are trying to mislead Iran.
00:10:58Yes
00:11:01I should tell you that the first point is that in the past few months,
00:11:04this discussion existed. You also mentioned in your report that
00:11:08it is unbelievable that the Americans
00:11:10themselves, a political system,
00:11:13are unaware of strategic reserves. We really
00:11:17should say defensive reserves are strategic
00:11:20reserves. And now, for example,
00:11:24if you look at
00:11:28the articles that have been published in American media in the past few days,
00:11:32especially the New York Times article that came out
00:11:35and wrote an article about what strategic
00:11:39lessons Americans should learn. It said that
00:11:43the war between America and Iran should be taught
00:11:46in American universities, not as a
00:11:48victorious war,
00:11:51but as a war resulting from strategic mistakes.
00:11:55The unclear goal, incorrect estimations, one part
00:11:58of which is this issue of weapons and so on, the lack of a plan
00:12:01for the days after the attack, intelligence and
00:12:04operational errors, and the New York Times says that this war
00:12:08was a strategic mistake. Well, this rhetoric has
00:12:11existed in America. Trump is also under pressure.
00:12:15If it is to be a psychological operation, as you
00:12:19said, then it must be
00:12:22a justification for failure.
00:12:26Because what is certain, what
00:12:29happened today, all the media, all
00:12:32the experts, even American generals, those who
00:12:36are experts in the field of war, consider this
00:12:39war not a war for America, but
00:12:43a major defeat for America. Therefore, this game that
00:12:47has started between Trump and the American
00:12:51Secretary of War is truly a justification for what
00:12:55Trump wants to do to extricate himself from this strategic
00:12:58defeat. If we consider it a psychological operation,
00:13:02he is now blaming Iran and saying they didn't tell me. So,
00:13:06if we consider it a psychological operation, we should look at it from this
00:13:09perspective. Yes, Mr. Barzkar, how effective can this
00:13:13be in the coming days? After all, they
00:13:16are still continuing their rhetoric against Iran,
00:13:20threatening that if negotiations
00:13:23do not succeed. Negotiations that have actually
00:13:26not taken place, negotiations between Iran and Oman,
00:13:30have nothing to do with America. They are still making
00:13:34these threats. How effective do you think this will be
00:13:37in the coming days in this psychological operation
00:13:41against the Iranian nation? First, let me mention
00:13:44this point: In various interviews, for example, John Bolton,
00:13:48one of Trump's closest allies in the previous term,
00:13:52and now one of Trump's most hated figures, used a term
00:13:56regarding Trump and the current situation in America
00:13:59and called it the "White House of Slaves." He said
00:14:02it was a situation, and he was not alone; Joe Kent also
00:14:06said the same thing. In other words, he said that Trump is now
00:14:10trapped by information that, rather than being provided
00:14:13by 18 US intelligence agencies, is influenced by Zionists
00:14:17and others, or Taylor said
00:14:20Trump's personal interests have taken precedence over everything.
00:14:24This Mr. Fineberg, who is the Deputy
00:14:28Secretary of War, and Hexad has blamed him
00:14:31for all the concerns, is a businessman
00:14:34in the arms industry. I wanted to first describe this situation
00:14:38in America and the impact of these insinuations
00:14:41on Trump's decision-making in various fields.
00:14:45That is, these
00:14:48confessions of those who were Trump's closest allies.
00:14:52But regarding Trump continuing his rhetoric,
00:14:56it definitely should be that way, because
00:14:59today, these negotiations between Iran and Oman
00:15:02have been evaluated positively, and our Foreign Ministry
00:15:05officials have officially confirmed it. And it is
00:15:09a purely Iranian-Omani agreement. Excuse me, these
00:15:13negotiations are proceeding between Iran and Oman.
00:15:16America wants to use this psychological operation
00:15:20to pretend that if Iran and Oman reached
00:15:23an agreement, it was not a bilateral
00:15:27agreement between them, but because of my threats
00:15:30to launch a new attack. This is despite the fact
00:15:34that the current situation in America is different
00:15:38from the reality on the ground. That is, if they don't
00:15:41attack, it's not because of their kindness,
00:16:03However, the trade tension between the US and China
00:16:07has entered a new phase. Today, Beijing announced that it has
00:16:11sanctioned 6 US entities. On the other hand,
00:16:14China's Ministry of Commerce also
00:16:17announced that it has imposed strict restrictions
00:16:20on the sale of drone-related equipment
00:16:24to American companies.
00:16:40Welcome to the World Today program. Tell us about the latest situation
00:16:43of escalating trade tensions between the US and China.
00:16:46It seems that this tension is still increasing.
00:16:50افزایششه
00:16:54In the name of God, hello. Well, today, the Chinese Ministry
00:16:58of Commerce announced that it has decided
00:17:01to
00:17:03restrict the sale of equipment and accessories
00:17:07used in the drone industry to American companies.
00:17:11In this regard, 6 US entities
00:17:14have also been sanctioned. This decision by the Chinese
00:17:18Ministry of Commerce was made
00:17:20in line with the law restricting the use of
00:17:24dual-use equipment and goods. Although this decision by China
00:17:28was announced today and is effective from today,
00:17:32the main story goes back to about a week ago.
00:17:35It was August 8th
00:17:37when the economic leaders of China and the United States
00:17:41in a video conference agreed on
00:17:44managing tensions and some trade problems
00:17:48between the two countries. However, an interesting
00:17:51thing happened, and the Americans, just one day after this
00:17:55agreement, initially sanctioned
00:17:5820 entities and companies, and then in the next
00:18:00phase, 23 Chinese entities and companies,
00:18:04and a total of 43 Chinese entities and companies
00:18:07for various reasons, including human
00:18:10rights, ties to military organizations, and
00:18:13threatening US national security. They placed them
00:18:17on the sanctions list. And in fact, today's action
00:18:21by Beijing is a retaliatory measure against the behaviors
00:18:24that the Americans have carried out in the past week.
00:18:28And well, considering that many American companies, both in the commercial
00:18:32and military sectors, are heavily
00:18:35dependent on China's raw materials for drone
00:18:40manufacturing, this issue will be costly for the Americans.
00:18:44And after all, the Chinese are showing
00:18:48the Americans that in trade competition, they are
00:18:51no longer a helpless player. Rather, they can
00:18:54play an active role as a regulator
00:18:57and a player by influencing the
00:19:00production supply chain.
00:19:03Well, this tension
00:19:06and these events are happening while the leaders
00:19:10of China and the US are scheduled to meet in less than
00:19:13two months at the G-7 summit and also the
00:19:17Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Vietnam and the G-7
00:19:20summit in Shenzhen, China. In any case, what is happening
00:19:24is that it seems that the Chinese have
00:19:28learned very well in these two years that Donald Trump has been back
00:19:32in the White House that, first of all, they should
00:19:35not trust the commitments
00:19:38and promises of the Americans at all, and they should not pursue
00:19:41long-term agreements with the Americans
00:19:44because the Americans fundamentally will not adhere
00:19:48to any agreement. And the only thing to do
00:19:51when dealing with Donald Trump's America is to
00:19:55manage tensions. Very well. Thank you very much, Mr. Amir Shayanmehr,
00:19:58reporter for the Voice and Vision News Agency, for being
00:20:02with us from Beijing.
00:20:12However, the conflict between Yemen and Saudi Arabia has
00:20:15entered a new phase. Yemenis announced in a statement
00:20:19that they will not allow Saudi Arabia to circumvent
00:20:23the blockade. On the other hand, Foreign Policy also
00:20:27referred in a report to
00:20:29the fact that Saudi Arabia made a miscalculation
00:20:33in the war with Yemen. Yemenis also added
00:20:36that the northern Red Sea is no
00:20:40longer safe for Saudi Arabia and will
00:20:43not allow the passage of ships
00:21:11Long live Mr. Choopankareh. Many
00:21:14media outlets are talking about the fact that Saudi
00:21:17Arabia actually did not expect
00:21:21Ansarullah and the Yemenis' responses to be
00:21:25so powerful and, on the other hand,
00:21:28to increase the pressure of the blockade on Saudi Arabia.
00:21:32What is your analysis of this? Well, it must be said
00:21:35that Saudi Arabia,
00:21:38continuing the policies dictated to it by Western
00:21:42governments, and led by the United States of America,
00:21:46believed that with the attacks it carried out
00:21:51in Yemen over the past years, and the very heavy
00:21:54crimes it committed in its attacks,
00:21:58it had effectively inflicted blows on Yemen, which
00:22:02is one of the very important countries in the resistance
00:22:05front, and eliminated
00:22:08the military and confrontational capabilities of Yemen
00:22:12and the Houthi rebels of Yemen.
00:22:16Ansarullah and they no longer have the ability
00:22:20to confront and engage in conflict
00:22:23with Saudi Arabia. However, it must be said
00:22:27that we are witnessing the maturity and
00:22:30significant growth of Yemen.
00:22:33Today, a country that has been subjected
00:22:37to many sanctions, Saudi Arabia itself
00:22:40has actually repeatedly
00:22:44inflicted military blows and imposed
00:22:48sanctions, preventing it from having
00:22:51foreign trade and maritime trade. Today, it has reached
00:22:55the maturity to use the tools at its disposal,
00:22:58relying on its inherent power, to impose
00:23:02a naval blockade on Saudi Arabia,
00:23:05to disrupt its foreign trade.
00:23:09Today, oil exports in Saudi Arabia,
00:23:12which thought that after the closure of the Strait of Hormuz,
00:23:15the management of the Islamic Republic of Iran over the Strait of Hormuz
00:23:20from the western route of Saudi Arabia
00:23:23and the western islands of Saudi Arabia
00:23:27would be possible, this issue has also faced
00:23:31a serious challenge and Saudi Arabia
00:23:34has faced a very big problem in the field
00:23:38of maritime trade and its foreign trade. And I think
00:23:41that we are actually witnessing an increase
00:23:44in the strategic position of Yemen in the resistance
00:23:47front and an increase in deterrent power.
00:23:51Perceptually, this means that you have given your
00:23:55enemy the perception that if
00:23:58you put pressure on the resistance front
00:24:01in any of the countries and regions,
00:24:05or strike a blow, you will not necessarily
00:24:08receive your response in the same region and country.
00:24:12Yes, if Mr. Choopankareh, right now in
00:24:15the news channel's subtitle, we are also referring to
00:24:19this issue, where it was planned to attack Sana'a,
00:24:22but the Yemenis learned about it in advance and
00:24:26thwarted the attack. In your opinion, where are these
00:24:29conflicts heading in the coming days?
00:24:32In my opinion, with the confrontation and the
00:24:35brave defense of the Yemeni fighters,
00:24:39we will witness the withdrawal of Saudi Arabia.
00:24:42And Saudi Arabia, just
00:24:45as the United States of America and the Zionist
00:24:49regime accepted this defeat in the battle
00:24:52they waged against the Islamic Republic of Iran and in
00:24:56their blatant aggression against the Islamic Republic
00:25:00of Iran, I think they will also retreat,
00:25:03come to the negotiating table, and
00:25:06actually retreat from their hostile
00:25:10actions. Of course, this does not mean the elimination
00:25:12of hostility and the end of Saudi Arabia's hostility
00:25:15with the resistance front and with the Yemeni
00:25:19fighters. But the fact that they accept this defeat
00:25:22and retreat and are willing to give concessions
00:25:26to the resistance front in general and more specifically
00:25:30to the Yemeni fighters
00:25:32is itself a victory for both the resistance
00:25:35front and the brave Yemeni fighters who, in these
00:25:39difficult conditions, in conditions where
00:25:43no military equipment has been directly available
00:25:47to them throughout these years, stood on their own feet
