New Delhi: Amidst the increasing geopolitical tension in West Asia, Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has given a direct warning to America in a very strict tone. In an exclusive interview given to Iranian state media IRIB, Araghchi bluntly said that Iran’s sword will always remain pointed on the ‘Strait of Hormuz’, a sea route very important for global trade. Now Iran and Oman will have complete control over this sea route.

taxes directly from ships

Under international rules, tax cannot be taken directly from ships passing through here, but service fees will definitely be collected in return for the services provided to them. To manage this maritime traffic, Iran is working together with its friendly countries China and Oman. Along with this, Iran has given a strict warning to America to remove its naval blockade at any cost.

The truth about the two-page secret agreement

Foreign Minister Araghchi also revealed the layers of back-channel diplomacy and secret deals going on with Washington. He told that a preliminary agreement of two pages has been prepared between the two countries. Under this draft, no asset or fund of Iran can now be frozen.

Divided the deal into two phases

This entire deal has been divided into two phases. There has been no discussion on the nuclear issue in the first phase. It has been completely postponed to the second phase. Iran’s stance regarding uranium is very clear. He says that if there is a need to reduce the power of uranium, then this work will be done within Iran only, not in any other country.

Military strength and support to Hezbollah

On the regional security front, the Iranian Foreign Minister completely rejected the role of the United Nations or any foreign coalition. He said that Iran is not relying on any outside force for its security. The security of the country depends only on God, its people and the courage of its army. He told that Iran’s diplomats and military commanders are in constant touch with each other. His interlocutor sitting at the negotiating table talks only on the strength of the country’s army. On the Lebanon crisis, he made it clear that Iran will never leave Hezbollah alone. The war will be considered over only when fighting stops completely on all fronts.

Suspense on final agreement

At the end of the interview, Araghchi expressed disbelief in America’s intentions and said that it is in the nature of American leaders to break promises. In such a situation, there may be many obstacles in implementing the agreement on the ground. To deal with this, Iran has already closed all avenues of fraud. If the conditions of this draft are not met, the final agreement will not be signed.

protests

At present, some people in Iran’s Supreme National Security Council are in support of this agreement, while some are opposing it. However, the Foreign Minister made it clear that the final decision will be taken only with the consent of the entire council. As soon as the green signal is received from the council, this agreement will be signed remotely.
