Iran's New President Being Labelled As Reformer Is Misleading: Seyed Marandi
Iran's new president Masoud Pezeshkian, is seen as a reformer in the Western media, while former nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalili whom he defeated, is seen as a hardliner. But do such labels actually represent who these people are?
In this conversation on The Gist, Seyed Marandi, professor at Tehran University, says these labels are misleading and are generally reflective of how the West sees them. Pezeshkian, for instance, may have reformist inclinations but remains a strong supporter of the clerical regime. That includes hijab for women.
Iran's new president Pezeshkian was not allowed to contest some years ago but was found suitable this time round. Does that suggest the result of this election was pre-ordained? Marandi says no. Whether it was Pezeshkian or Jalili, both had to campaign hard, they debated and the former was able to pull through.
Marandi does not believe Iran is isolated any longer. Ties with China and Russia are robust, Tehran is now joining the SCO and the country has been able to weather the worst impact of sanctions.
He does not believe the nuclear deal will move forward given the entrenched position of Republicans and Democrats in the US. That will not change even after the US elects a new president in November.
But Iran is committed to not having nuclear weapons, he underscored.
On Israel he warned that the Jewish state is committing genocide in Gaza. He also warned against moves in Tel Aviv to start a new military campaign this time, against Hezbollah in Lebanon. Israel, he said, cannot win. Hezbollah is a strong force and will not succumb.
A word about India. Relations have been moving forward despite sanctions and India is committed to expanding its investment and commitment to Chahbahar port. The clerical leadership in Tehran has a positive view of India and this will be built upon by Pezeshkian.

Election in the Islamic Iran is NOT free because: 1. Assembly of experts “select” the supreme leader! 2. Supreme leader “selects” the Guardian consul 3. Guardian consul “select” the candidates ########### ** Free Iran, STOP executions and END gender in-equalities (apartheid). ** Free Palestine, END occupation
Iran is king
Great analysis by the prof.
Is there any doubt left that there are only two different factions of Zio NOT-Z: Those who are denying the existence of Palestinian and those who are insisting to make Palestinians nonexistence. *Rest* *in* *Power* *Aaron* *Bushnell* I will never forget you and your last words of " *Free* *Palestine* "
Prof Marandi didn't mention that India is helping Israel apartheid regime which it is shameful & disgusting.

Excellent interview as always with professor Morandi. I admire him because he's very informative and knowledgeable. I never miss any of his interviews.
Very interesting... Thanks
This old American who has no love for his corrupt government is a huge admirer of Prof. Marandi and the Iranian people. Thank you for having him here to speak the truth which I sincerely wish more of my fellow Americans would listen to instead of the corporate owned US mainstream news media. Long live Iran! 🇮🇷❤🙏

Problem with PM Modi is more on West Sides than the East because of his relations with Yatinyaho means also America not aware how long he will keep India center line however time will say - America will keep India in Center to receive information thru and to keep as it is reason being to support India against China bad intention towards India and to grow economy stands agst China - situation to remain neutral can be fruitfully to India??
Thank you Surya for this interview. Very pleased to see India and Iran engaged in mutually beneficial exchanges in many fields.

How did the US or Europe be in violation of JCPOA signed in 2015, before president Trump revoked it in 2018 ? The sanctions were lifted from 2015-18. India paid its dues.

Not true. Not all sanctions were removed. Despite removing some sanctions European and American banks were refusing. So, Iran didn't get the fruit. Moreover, Obama was dragging sanctions based on so-called human rights violations and arguing that human rights violation sanctions were different from nuclear agreement sanctions. So, Iran prepared a counter strategy of drones and missiles which had no relation of nuclear.

The US and western countries will never remove any sanctions against Iran or any countries who aren't aligned with the US foreign policies. The Iranian government was naive to believe the US will remove all sanctions & consequently Iran fulfilled all the JCPOA requirements but received nothing Zero . Luckily, stupid Trump has withdrawn from the agreement & saved Iran from such a bad agreement. Saudi Arabia is soon becoming nuclear power, so UAE & the rest of the middle east.

Iran fulfilled its commitments under JCPOA for several years, while the US and western countries did not abide by the agreement, and still refused to lift the sanctions they agreed on they would lift. For the first years Rohani government tried to push the west to abide by its commitments, and then after Trump left the deal, they tried to convince the west to come back to the deal, especially under Biden. But at no point did the west remove the sanctions as agreed, and the devastating impact of the sanctions continued

A large part of fighting is currently happening outside of Rafah, in the north. While the occupation army can concentrate the civilian population in certain areas of the Gaza strip, the resistance fighters are defending Gaza from all locations, and are able to move swiftly underground and through the urban areas. So no victory for Netanyahu in sight

10/07/2024 Politics can be a dirty game. I am the gentleman who, after the deal, wrote, "If a camel can pass through the eye of a needle, then this deal will go through." Nobody believed the deal would be canceled. For example, hostages were kept for the sole purpose of influencing Reagan's election, so the agreement was mutual Liberty in Iran is not yet possible because the fundamental principles of the Iranian people are confused. There is more that I would like to say on this matter. Nobody knows who started it and ended it. Concerning nuclear systems, the West already knew, so they went along only to make money. However, Iran's regime miscalculated. The US, about which we are concerned about nuclear use, is the one who used it first ever.

I am a woman in Iran, and while Hijab standing as a symbol for Islamic Rulership is controversial, the cloth as a headcover itself is not that much. It is literally just some clothing, and has very little to do with civil rights of women. I wish political discourse could focus on the actual real issues women face in Iran, not just some symbolic piece of cloth that has little influence on daily life.
