Michel Nawfal: Iran follows logical policy in region

Referring to the Zionist regime as the main threat to all, the expert said that an influential regional organization should be established to remove the problems between the regional nations and act as a guarantor for the security in the region.

Of course, there are questions between them, but they should establish an organization comprising the regional powers which would be able to organize the important regional issues, he said.

He further stressed that regional problems will be solved only through dialogue, but the new Arab leaders in Saudi Arabia are against any negotiation because they act within a platform which makes more tensions and has been provided by the US President Donald Trump and his team.

Talking of the July 2015 nuclear deal known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) between Iran and the world powers, the Lebanese expert said the Iran Deal is an international agreement to which the US has taken an unreasonable and illogical approach.

Trump is against the JCPOA and has threatened that the US will withdraw from it while many world leaders including the European Union foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini have repeatedly emphasized that the deal should be kept alive.

Although Trump has been insisting that the JCPOA is not fruitful, his move cannot question the deal because the US measure is against the international law, he added.

Referring to the remarks made over and over by top Iranian officials that Tehran will never ask for permission to build missiles, planes and tanks, the analyst said Iran in line with its national security is entitled to build what is needed for defending itself regarding the critical situation in the region.
