00:00:25Good morning, dear viewers, and welcome to the
00:00:289 AM news. The head of the Radio Regulatory
00:00:32Organization said that with the change of generation in the field of communication infrastructure and the collection
00:00:36of copper cables, internet quality will improve.
00:00:39Mr. Fattahi added that internet tariffs will also be
00:00:42determined based on the quality and users' livelihood basket.
00:00:46Quality will be achieved through this
00:00:49change and through this
00:00:53generational change in infrastructure. This will happen. If
00:00:56you now connect
00:01:00with users who have fiber-based connections, fiber optic connection at
00:01:03home, you will surely see that they are satisfied
00:01:07and with speed and, as I said, several
00:01:11times, dozens of times, and in some places hundreds of times more quality compared to that
00:01:15speed. Is the cost high or almost reasonable? You see,
00:01:19the cost is completely
00:01:21designed based on those indicators and the tariffs that are
00:01:25provided to users, in any case, are based on the same indicators that
00:01:28if they previously had, for example, a
00:01:32fixed connection, it is proportional to the increase in speed and quality that has occurred,
00:01:36it is proportional to that. Well, I say that surely the livelihood
00:01:39basket of the people and users
00:01:42in this regard, I would say that
00:01:45the legislator in this field, who we are in the Regulatory Commission,
00:01:48we fully take these into consideration.

00:06:25movement addressed the Zionist officials, saying: "You threaten us with something that
00:06:29we pray for day and night, which is martyrdom. Your

00:08:30the walking pilgrims of Arbaeen with all their heart.
00:08:34Friends, after they complete their
00:08:37pilgrimage, they go to the shrine of the martyred leader
00:08:40of the Islamic Revolution there.
00:09:05Moqebdars in love with the path of service have changed it to the path of pilgrimage
00:09:09and they themselves are pilgrims to Imam Reza (AS).
00:09:42It is planned that during the three-day program, they will visit the cultural
00:09:46capacities of Mashhad and meet with the servants of Imam
00:09:49Reza (AS). Farshid Abdi, Voice and Vision News

00:09:56Thank you very much for being with us for this news segment.
00:10:24In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
00:10:28I greet you, dear viewers, and wish you a good morning. On
00:10:32the eve of the US midterm congressional elections,
00:10:35which are scheduled to be held on November 3rd,
00:10:39or November 12th, a poll conducted
00:10:42by the Pew Research Center has proven that
00:10:46the focus and attention of American voters
00:10:49is still on the US economy. This means
00:10:53that on average, 84%
00:10:56of American voters, both Democrats
00:10:59and Republicans, have emphasized that the chaotic
00:11:03and disorganized situation of the US economy
00:11:07in recent weeks and months has
00:11:10led them to focus specifically on economic
00:11:13issues and examine the approaches of congressional
00:11:16candidates more closely in the economic sphere. Of
00:11:20course, the economic consequences of the Iran
00:11:23war have not remained limited to the US
00:11:27and are not, and the world continues
00:11:30to suffer from the issue of energy and the high
00:11:34price of energy carriers, and there is rarely a day
00:11:37that news in this regard is not reported. Here in the news channel studio, we are hosting Mr.
00:11:41Mehdi Khorsand, an expert on international issues,
00:11:44to discuss with him the economic consequences of the Iran war
00:11:48in the US and also the consequences
00:11:52in the economic sphere that have affected the world. Mr. Khorsand,
00:11:55hello, welcome. I greet you, your esteemed colleagues,
00:11:59and the noble people of Iran. I am at your service.
00:12:03Thank you. Perhaps on March 9, 2025, when
00:12:07Trump ordered the invasion of Iran, he thought that
00:12:10the political situation of the Republican Party and himself on the eve
00:12:14of the midterm congressional elections would
00:12:17be brilliant, and through the war with Iran, he could
00:12:21make the situation better than before and better than the estimations. But everything
00:12:25went awry, and the result is the opposite. What exactly happened
00:12:28inside the US, and what is the situation now?
00:12:32Yes, in the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. When
00:12:35the American and the Republican
00:12:38administration of America were
00:12:41looking for an achievement in their foreign policy, which they had
00:12:44failed to achieve in the continuation of their first administration's scenario,
00:12:48they had not achieved a tangible achievement in
00:12:51the foreign sphere and in the continuation of
00:12:55writing the scenario of the Abraham Accords, which was
00:12:58about bringing Arabs and the Zionist regime closer
00:13:02together, and the goal of this report was to eventually
00:13:06push for maximum pressure and war with Iran.
00:13:09We saw that these scenarios were
00:13:12prepared and implemented in their second administration.
00:13:15Mr. Nekmin, the event that occurred in the past
00:13:19year, in the past few months
00:13:22of the war, especially in the 39-day
00:13:25war that we witnessed, was that the Americans
00:13:29started the scenario in March of last
00:13:33year in such a way that they would achieve
00:13:36a swift victory, and this swift
00:13:40victory could be an achievement for them in the midterm
00:13:43congressional elections because the Republicans had heavily planned
00:13:47on this issue to be able to both maintain the majority
00:13:50in Congress and both houses of the US,
00:13:53and then also have an option
00:13:57in the next presidential election and be able to
00:14:00pursue their path to success, in their own words.
00:14:03But
00:14:06the war in the Persian Gulf and the issue
00:14:10of the Strait of Hormuz has become a quagmire for them,
00:14:13and this quagmire has affected not only the US
00:14:17and its domestic economy, but also many
00:14:20countries whose economies depended on the US economy, especially
00:14:24industrialized countries of the world,
00:14:27and recently, in the coming hours
00:14:30and days, we will also
00:14:33have the IMF summit, and the reports that are being
00:14:36examined there indicate that the world has entered
00:14:40a new period of stagflation, meaning
00:14:43that while the world and industrialized
00:14:46countries, especially due to this war,
00:14:49have both inflation, meaning a general increase
00:14:52in prices, and recession due to uncertainty
00:14:56and the lack of a clear and obvious outlook
00:14:59for growth, they are suffering from it, and
00:15:03this stagflation, as it is called in economics,
00:15:05is one of the most
00:15:08frequent economic calamities
00:15:12that can affect the world. Many experts in the field of
00:15:15political economy in the world
00:15:18recall this period as the period
00:15:21after 1970, approximately a 10-year period when the world
00:15:25was entangled in a severe stagflation, and during that period,
00:15:29incidentally, the Americans started an oil war
00:15:32and an energy war in the world, and
00:15:35later, that calamity
00:15:38of stagflation in the world spread through this
00:15:41American war. You referred to the classes
00:15:45that are in the international arena, but before we want to
00:15:48focus more on the global arena and the
00:15:51imbalances that the world is experiencing in the energy sector,
00:15:55let's talk a little more about inside America.
00:15:58The situation is so critical for the Republican
00:16:02Party and Trump has realized this horrific situation
00:16:05that he has promised $5,000.
00:16:37and naturally affects the price of all products,
00:16:41especially in the food sector,
00:16:43and the American people immediately feel this price increase
00:16:47on their tables. This issue, well,
00:16:50is an important issue. The importance
00:16:54of Americans' voting power, their
00:16:57voting pattern and rule, is very
00:17:01much dependent on their livelihood
00:17:04and living conditions, and has a direct relationship.
00:17:08Let's put this point against Donald Trump's
00:17:11promise, which is completely derived from the fact
00:17:15that the US domestic economy is shrinking
00:17:19in the current situation, and the tables of the
00:17:22American people are taking direct blows from
00:17:26the continuation of the US war in the Persian Gulf
00:17:30against the Islamic Republic of Iran, and in order
00:17:33to get out from under this psychological
00:17:36pressure, and perhaps from under
00:17:40these public protests in the US, he is making
00:17:43this short-term promise that if the Republicans
00:17:47again have the majority in Congress,
00:17:51if they have the majority in both houses of the US, they can
00:17:55at least with this
00:17:57promise, perhaps in the short term,
00:18:00keep the American society calm and
00:18:04control this situation. But all the polls
00:18:08that are currently being released by reputable American
00:18:10institutions indicate that society no longer
00:18:14reacts positively to these short-term promises. That is, even
00:18:18with these measures that the US president has taken and with these promises
00:18:22that he has made to American society, according to the polls,
00:18:25the loser of the midterm congressional elections
00:18:28in this country is still the Republicans.
00:18:31The assumption is that, at least according
00:18:35to the polls. Why
00:18:37are people reacting to these polls in
00:18:41this way? Because these polls are also taken
00:18:43from the general atmosphere of Americans. All
00:18:47assessments and all
00:18:50probabilities that American media and think tanks are
00:18:54publishing are that these consequences, even if the
00:18:57war ends today, will have long-term consequences
00:19:01for the global community. Energy prices
00:19:04and the expected situation regarding the
00:19:07Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf will no longer return
00:19:11to normal conditions and before the Iran-US war,
00:19:14and the equations of the region and the equations of
00:19:18energy transit in the world are no longer dependent on the will
00:19:21and desire of Americans in the world, and
00:19:24this is the perception that has led American society to perhaps
00:19:28not pay much attention to these short-term promises, and the
00:19:32action that the US president took regarding the agreement
00:19:36he made with Russia, in any case, Russia and the US are
00:19:40confronting each other in Ukraine, but without considering this
00:19:44fact, he acted on the agreement to import
00:19:47gas oil from Russia. How do you evaluate this
00:19:50action? Firstly, to what extent can it have a positive
00:19:54impact on the US economy and somehow enable them
00:19:57to overcome this crisis safely, and secondly, what political
00:20:00consequences does it have for the US among European
00:20:04allies? Look, this issue that news came
00:20:07out and perhaps created a news wave in our country against
00:20:11Russia, we need to have a correct analysis of it.
00:20:15Firstly, there is much skepticism
00:20:18about the operationalization of this matter.
00:20:21Secondly, the next point regarding this
00:20:25issue is that the amount of gas oil that has been
00:20:29discussed, about 300,000 liters, might only
00:20:33meet the needs of Americans for one to one and a half
00:20:36days, and I say that these actions, firstly, due to the
00:20:40Russia-Ukraine war, much of Russia's energy
00:20:44exports have been affected by this war, and
00:20:47we also saw that Ukraine's attack on one of
00:20:51Russia's energy reserves immediately caused this issue
00:20:55to be more doubted. But Mr. Nikpin, the political consequences
00:20:58that it has had for American domestic society, especially
00:21:02for the Republican Party, which has been under more
00:21:06pressure from the Democrats, created a bigger negative
00:21:10wave for the Republicans, and they probably
00:21:13tried to control that negative wave of news
00:21:16from the Strait of Hormuz region
00:21:20to some extent with a psychological issue, with news fabrication,
00:21:23but it almost turned into a quagmire for the Americans,
00:21:27and especially for the Republicans, and they could not really
00:21:30ride that wave of implicit
00:21:33and media agreement they had with the Russians
00:21:37much and achieve their goals. Firstly, again, I say,
00:21:41in terms of operationalization, its realization
00:21:44is very much debatable. The negative
00:21:47wave
00:21:50that perhaps the Democrats are creating against
00:21:53the Republicans regarding the agreement with Russia
00:21:57has more negative consequences for the Republicans in the
00:22:00current situation. Even the US president a few
00:22:03hours ago published a message on social media
00:22:07stating that Russia and Ukraine had agreed to an energy
00:22:11ceasefire, but a few hours after this statement
00:22:14by the US president, we saw that these attacks continued
00:22:18and Ukraine's energy sector was targeted,
00:22:22which confirms your statement that this framework
00:22:25that the US is trying to impose is not
00:22:29a lasting solution. It's
00:22:31more of a short-term relief and a creation
00:22:35of a psychological atmosphere within the US
00:22:38to control energy prices and
00:22:42the index that everyone refers to daily
00:22:45for energy prices to at least bring
00:22:49energy prices around $100. But immediately
00:22:52I was looking today, American markets that opened,
00:22:56we again saw a jump in crude oil
00:22:59prices, which was
00:23:02due to the fact that this issue was
00:23:05completely temporary and fleeting. Mr. Khorsand, I ask
00:23:09this question to the guests of the program,
00:23:12and I would like to ask you as well: Americans have been insisting
00:23:16in recent weeks that they have disrupted
00:23:20the sovereignty of the Islamic Republic of Iran over the Strait
00:23:23of Hormuz, at least, and in some cases, they say
00:23:26that the strategic importance that the Strait of Hormuz
00:23:30had from Iran's perspective has been rendered ineffective.
00:23:33To what extent do you consider this
00:23:37claim to be correct? Do you reject it? And does the Strait
00:23:41of Hormuz have this capability to have traffic over it
00:23:45and for this strategic importance that
00:23:49it has always had throughout history and has
00:23:52always maintained to disappear? Look, we need to have a
00:23:55logical view of this issue. If the players
00:23:59and interveners who are currently present in the Strait
00:24:03of Hormuz and need this strait decide to
00:24:06create alternative routes, then these alternative
00:24:09routes must have several characteristics: first, they must
00:24:13be short; second, they must be safe; third,
00:24:16they must be economically viable. If you want to create
00:24:20a transit route, you must, of course, follow these
00:24:23three characteristics so that you can create a safe
00:24:27environment for the world's economy, because the world
00:24:31cannot build a long-term economy on uncertainty and insecurity.
00:24:34All alternative routes to the Strait of Hormuz
00:24:38have shown, meaning the efforts that our southern
00:24:41neighbors and sometimes hostile enemies who have come to this
00:24:45region, extra-regional players, have made many efforts
00:24:49to create an alternative route for the Strait of Hormuz.
00:24:52All their efforts have failed
00:24:56and have shown that there is no alternative
00:24:59route for the Strait of Hormuz, at least in a timeframe
00:25:02of, I would say, 50 years, I can
00:25:06confidently say there is none. Look,
00:25:09security is a condition, and we have seen that alternative
00:25:13routes have not been able to provide that energy security
00:25:16and energy transit for them. After all, the main
00:25:20players in the region have defined interests for
00:25:24themselves in this region, and an extra-regional player
00:25:27cannot guarantee that. At least we saw that
00:25:30the media reported in recent days
00:25:33that the price of transiting a single
00:25:37oil tanker is perhaps higher than
00:25:40a year's worth of energy consumption for a country.
00:25:43Well, this is a very vital issue that
00:25:47will have a profound impact on the future
00:25:51of energy transfer in the world. And since the world
00:25:54has a very special need for, as they say,
00:25:57fossil fuels, everyone, everyone
00:26:00still, this issue, well,
00:26:03also creates this situation for us that, in practice,
00:26:07the Strait of Hormuz is perhaps irremovable
00:26:10in the short and medium term, and I think the best
00:26:14proof of your statement is the price of energy
00:26:18carriers, because if the Strait of Hormuz had been
00:26:21rendered ineffective, if traffic in the Strait of Hormuz had
00:26:25returned to before March 9, 2025, then
00:26:29the prices of energy carriers like oil would also
00:26:32have declined and would not have been so high.
00:26:36Look, Mr. Nikbir, I want to refer to the president's
00:26:40speech at the UN General Assembly. He said a very
00:26:43correct point. Our neighbors must know and accept
00:26:47that either this region must
00:26:51have security in various forms – military security, economic
00:26:54security, social security – for all
00:26:57neighbors. Or we must all tolerate
00:27:00this insecurity. Or we will have
00:27:10security together. You see, for several decades, the Islamic Republic of Iran, as an anchor
00:27:13of security in this region, has produced
00:27:16security in a very extravagant way at a very
00:27:20high cost, and has provided it as a commodity
00:27:23to its neighbors and the East and West of the
00:27:25world. But now,
00:27:29that we face insecurity, it is very
00:27:34understandable and acceptable for us as a major regional player. And I
00:27:38think the president's statement means that if there
00:27:41is insecurity, it is not only for Iran, and
00:27:45all neighbors must also share in this
00:27:48insecurity. Very well, thank you, Mr. Khorsand, expert
00:27:52on international issues. Thank you for joining us in this discussion.
00:27:56And thank you, dear viewers, for your attention. Please
00:27:59stay tuned to the news channel. Thank you, sir.
00:28:25What reason were you given
00:28:29these military facilities which by the way we've heard from reporting and even the former
00:28:33director of the CIA are now rendered
00:28:35inoperable?
00:28:38Yeah, the reason was made up, the reason was that it wasn't safe
00:28:41to bring me to base, but that's just not true. Uh, the
00:28:45fact of the matter is, I've been in the Iraq War
00:28:49during the height of the surge. I was brought to
00:28:51forward operating bases in Afghanistan when the Taliban was
00:28:55actively.
00:29:06Dear academics,
00:29:09the innocent and blameless children who lost their
00:29:12lives
00:29:15at Minab school
00:29:18are evidence and proof
00:29:21of the criminality of those who claim
00:29:25democracy, human rights, and I don't know, science and
00:29:29all that stuff. Now,
00:29:31this thing you saw is proof that
00:29:35these things they are talking about
00:29:38are real.
00:29:41I am happy to be with you, and I see
00:29:45Dr. Karimi now. He gave us some fake
00:29:48compliments, but anyway, we have been with him
00:29:51for a lifetime in the trenches
00:29:54and tried, and what these dear ones did at
00:29:58Tehran Heart Hospital was exceptional.
00:30:01May God help them to continue.
00:30:04What I
00:30:07want to tell
00:30:10you now, Dr. Aghamiri also
00:30:14mentioned that we have a project. we have. You
00:30:18know what situation
00:30:19we are in.
00:30:23I believe that the way out of
00:30:26this situation we are in
00:30:30is through academics and students.
00:30:37There is nothing that our elites, our students, and those
00:30:40who have faith and belief
00:30:44that they should live with their heads held high
00:30:47should not bow their heads. When a person has this belief,
00:30:51they will find a way, especially those who are
00:30:55knowledgeable, learned, and or seeking knowledge
00:30:59and wisdom.
