US Emerges as the World’s Foremost Security Threat: A Global Concern

In a recent weekly press briefing, Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei highlighted critical diplomatic developments involving Iran. The country has recently welcomed delegations from Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and South Korea, engaging them in discussions with the Foreign Minister.

Baghaei noted that the international landscape is evolving rapidly, with the Israeli regime posing as a significant threat in the region. He emphasized the ongoing crimes against humanity occurring in Lebanon, Syria, and other neighboring countries. Despite the presence of a ceasefire, violations have escalated dramatically.

  • Lebanon: Over hundreds of thousands of ceasefire violations reported.
  • Gaza: Notable reports indicate 600 ceasefire violations.

Concerning the threats posed by the United States, Baghaei argued that American actions have transformed it into the greatest threat to global security. He provided examples of coercive actions taken by the US across the globe, affecting countries such as:

  • Venezuela
  • Cuba
  • Nicaragua
  • Brazil
  • Mexico

Baghaei described the US’s recent announcement regarding airspace closures for another country as unprecedented, claiming it violates international norms and aviation safety regulations. He also mentioned the pressure exerted on African nations, specifically criticizing claims that South Africa should abstain from participating in the G20 summit.

Moreover, Baghaei stated that the United States’ unwavering support for the Israeli regime has made it complicit in the regime’s actions. He asserted that the UN Security Council should address these actions as blatant violations of international peace and security.

Australia’s Accusations Against the IRGC

Turning to Australia, Baghaei commented on the recent accusations against the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), asserting that Iran has officially clarified its stance. He emphasized that Australia’s position lacks any legal or factual grounding and is a continuation of previous steps taken by Canberra.

He explained that misleading information had been provided to Australian authorities, leading to a downgrade in diplomatic relations between Iran and Australia. However, he pointed out that even Australian officials, including regional police, have acknowledged that Iran had no involvement in incidents concerning actions against Jewish individuals.

Baghaei characterized Australia’s decision as merely a political gesture to appease the Zionist regime.

Saudi Deputy Foreign Minister’s Visit to Tehran

Baghaei confirmed that the recent visit of the Saudi Deputy Foreign Minister to Tehran was part of a diplomatic process initiated two years ago. He stated that relations between Iran and Saudi Arabia are strengthening, with discussions encompassing bilateral ties and regional issues, including:

  • Palestine
  • Lebanon
  • Syria

He expressed optimism that both nations are dedicated to this path, aiming to enhance stability in West Asia.

Israeli Regime’s Ceasefire Violations

On the issue of ceasefire violations in Lebanon, Baghaei criticized Israel for repeatedly entering into ceasefire agreements, only to breach them. He referenced reports from the UNIFIL spokesperson indicating as many as 10,000 ceasefire violations, suggesting that “there is practically no ceasefire” in place.

Baghaei argued that Israel’s actions jeopardize not only the security and stability of neighboring countries but also their development. He stated that these acts increase the accountability of countries that claim to guarantee ceasefires while further discrediting those who fail to uphold their commitments.

Discussions with the European Troika

Baghaei reiterated that Iran’s approach remains steadfast: meaningful negotiations can only occur when all parties recognize each other’s rights and legitimate concerns. He pointed out that Iran has not engaged in escalatory actions; rather, the proposed resolutions from the European troika have led to deadlocks.

While diplomatic dialogue with European nations persists, he clarified that this does not imply the immediate resumption of formal negotiations. Recent interactions, including a phone call with EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas, form part of Iran’s ongoing diplomatic efforts, which are expected to continue.

In conclusion, Iran’s diplomatic engagements and the complexities surrounding regional security underscore the significant challenges and opportunities for dialogue in the current international landscape.
