We would not allow Netanyahu decide the negotiation fate: Zarif
Mehr News reported that Mohammad Javad Zarif reacted to US presidents remark that all options including military option are still on the table. The text of FM about Obamas remarks has been posted to Facebook. I posted two twits about Obamas remarks after meeting with Netanyahu, where I criticized Obamas remark most severely, yet most politely. Let me present you my analysis about these remarks, reads the Facebook post.
During last few days, in this page as well as in interviews with domestic media, I have presented our good people that [events] last week was just the beginning of a hard and long route, fraught with perils. Neither should we take rejoice for a single positive development, nor could we abandon the honorable pursuit of our national interests. Most importantly, we should not represent these developments in a manner as to jeopardize our national interests or convey a false message to other party, for advancing short-term partisan interests and expediencies.
Netanyahu and American far-right are on tenterhooks. They have been swept to the sideline. 75 per cent of US general public believes that the nuclear issue should be solved through negotiation, while the majority of Americans believed a military solution could bring a settlement with Iran only few months ago. Certainly, warmongers must fear Rouhani. Netanyahu, encouraged by few renowned Israeli lobby columnists analyses, launched his offensive Friday evening, and rushed headlong to Washington to prevent any progress in nuclear negotiations. All Netanyahus and Zionist lobby objective is to impede the progress in negotiations so as to mount pressure on the Congress to pass more sanctions and to limit the presidents options of diplomatic solution (target of sanctions passed by the House of Representatives and now in Senate chamber).
The interview given by Secretary of State for CBSs 60 Minutes was a response to these pressures, where John Kerry told the program that we could solve nuclear issues in 3 months. This, of course, has disgruntled Netanyahu and Israeli lobby in the US, who uphold Israeli interests over American interests, and who spare no attempt including pressure, threat, framing, etc. to attain their evil objectives.
Obamas remarks were not acceptable as well, showing no trace of the role to be played by the US president, to solve nuclear issue, and who should have lead his country in such a historic issue, instead of merely having followed extremists. It was not unpredictable though. It was evident that Obama was mollifying Netanyahu and some other Arab states (which unfortunately, took sides with Zionists to abort attempts to solve nuclear issue).
We know well that US had been seeking pretexts to put pressure on Iranian great nation. We also know that warmongers fear settling the issues, and their existence nourishes intimidation and fabrication of lies. We do know that even if the US officials displayed good will (still with no serious indication of that); they are under extremely affected by pressure groups. We know that there is a huge difference between their expressed words and their statements during negotiations (even before P5+1 member).
Exactly due to these complexities that we warned that we have a tough job ahead, and hence, we did not rejoice after seemingly good negotiations, just like others. We will pursue the interests of Iranian great nation with open eyes, continues Facebook post.
But we would not allow Netanyahu to decide the future of negotiations. We would hear such remarks in many occasions and we would respond in strongest way. It is important to know that a rough and perilous path has been taken. This path has a diplomatic fighting rather than a cordial tie. Nothing has misled anyone in the Cabinet. I wonder why some individuals would deliver sermons in a way as if I and Mr. President, each with more than 30 years in politics, did not understand the basics of politics. These remarks would serve better an address, but dear brethren, know that it may have devastating effect on the other side, and may belie your negotiators (or, put it differently, forefront soldiers) as naïve and credulous.
God bless you and the dear Islamic Iran
