Baqa’i: Security Council meeting on Iran has no technical and legal justification

Speaking to ISNA on Wednesday, Ismail Baqaei, a spokesman for the Islamic Republic of Iran, told ISNA about the purpose of President Donald Trump to write a letter to Iran and media the issue of writing the letter, saying: “Every politician has his own style and his style.” Why he has decided this is merely a matter that can be analyzed. We have no News about why it has become media before a letter is sent. Important is performance, and ultimately we decide on the performance of countries about our reaction.

He also said about the content of the letter: Let’s not speculate what the content is.

Baqaei also stated: Countries do not decide on one or more actions on that country, each country has a background in behavior in relation to other countries, the country’s background and view of various international issues are clear. Therefore, it is natural that based on our previous experiences, our foreign policy priorities and principles, we have our own predictions, but it is not reasonable to make a decision based solely on speculation.

The trigger mechanism not only put one side exposed to pressure

A State Department spokesman responded to the question that “tonight (Wednesday) is a Security Council meeting on the amount of enriched uranium reserves in Iran, and Mr Arakchi has described it as a heresy. Some Western analysts and media have claimed that this may be the beginning of pressure on Iran and the preparations of the trigger mechanism, what do you think? While you said at a news conference that European countries should not go to the mechanism, “he said,” European countries must realize that using any compression tool will have reactions that will certainly be harmful to their own interests, so I don’t think they will simply come to terms with it.

“The discussion of the trigger mechanism is not to put only one side pressure,” he said. This will have consequences, and the consequences are serious for the other party given the reaction we will have.

The senior diplomat of the Islamic Republic of Iran noted: In my opinion, Mr. Minister used the most accurate word. This is a heresy. The meeting has no technical justification. Because the International Atomic Energy Agency is addressing the ambiguities and questions about Iran’s peaceful nuclear activities, and there is a specific cooperation program between Iran and the Agency based on international obligations, sanctification and NPT.

“Our rights and duties are clear and there is no justification for the issue at the Security Council level,” he said. It is clear to us that this issue is on the agenda due to US pressure and unfortunately some European countries. Such political clashes with technical issues will certainly not help the opposite parties and may make the matter more complicated, but because we are confident of the nature of our nuclear program and we are confident that the discussions that have been raised from the beginning, from the beginning of the year, were quite clear that it was a political excuse, and no claims. The atomic has done its job on the basis of legal frameworks, and therefore, in our view, there is no justification for the issue to be raised in the current situation in the UN Security Council.

The purpose of the Security Council meeting is the media space

Baqa’i responded to a question, “Will a resolution be issued at the meeting?” He said, “No, they are just about to discuss this.”

“That is why there is no basis on this, and China and Russia are completely opposed to this issue in the Security Council,” he said. It seems more that the goal is to make media and psychological space for pressure.

The next meeting with Europeans will be at an undergraduate level

A State Department spokesman also responded to a question about this anti -Iranian move, given that Iran’s talks with three European countries continue, as well as the horizon of Iranian talks with Europeans, said: “Negotiation is a process and with one or two sessions it is not going to end a discussion or say or did not come to fruition.” With the three European countries, they are legally members, and Brajam is still a document that is existed to the Security Council Resolution; So we are in constant contact with them. The next meeting will be at the undergraduate level, as we are going to enter some of the more detailed aspects of the previous periods at the level of political deputies or political managers of the three countries.

He continued: With China and Russia, both countries are members of the Brigham and were present in all negotiations, he said. In cases where they were not present, we informed them about conversations with European parties. As they were, if there was a discussion of Iran’s nuclear issue, they will let us know. So we were in talks with all the parties to the Brotherhood all these years. This is a sign of our goodness and seriousness that we are confident that our nuclear program is peaceful. They have no doubt, as the Agency, as a caregiver, has the necessary access to the peaceful nature of the nuclear program of countries.

Beijing’s meeting is part of a continuous process and nothing new

Baqa’i also said about the joint meeting of Iran, Russia and China on Friday in Beijing and “whether the proposal was from Iran or the opposite parties”. This is a continuation of a process. This time it is organized in terms of form and is not just about the nuclear issue.

A spokesman for the Iranian diplomacy said: “We have continuous consultations with both countries within regional and international frameworks, for example in the framework of Brix and Shanghai and consulting on regional and international developments.” Therefore, this opportunity is used to discuss a range of topics, and it is natural that the nuclear issue is one of its main topics.

How far we are from holding a meeting of the Joint Commission?

Responding to a question about “how far we do we have with a joint meeting with Russia, China and Europeans,” he said, “They (Europeans and Russia) have their own positions because of the Ukrainian conflict, and we have not had a meeting within the framework of the Joint Commission.” But we do our job, and we consider all of these countries to be a member of the Brotherhood, and we think consulting with all of them, including China and Russia, is useful because it is a joint agreement between these several countries.

The full text of this conversation will be published in the coming days.
