Editor-in-chief of a Russian Journal: West trying to paint Iran's investment-friendly atmosphere in a negative light
The license-holder and Editor-in-chief of the Russian quarterly entitled "Trade with Iran" said: "the west is trying to portray Iran in a bad way and paint Iran's investment atmosphere in a negative light".
According to the Public Relations Department of the Organization for Investment, Economic & Technical Assistance of Iran (OIETAI), citing IRNA News Agency, Mr. Rajab Safarov said: "they are trying to infuse the idea that Iran is a horrible country and that investments in Iran are not economically justifiable".
He noted: "this is while the investment conditions in some fields are unique and peerless in Iran".
The license-holder and Editor-in-chief of the Russian quarterly "Trade with Iran" reiterated: "in Iran there exists a very desirable situation for doing business and even in some cases, the government guarantees the profit which is unique in the world".
Safarov went on to say: "the West's stonewalling and slanted information disseminations techniques need to be removed and we will try to do so. Of course, more than anybody else the Iranians themselves must try to introduce their capabilities and potentialities to the world".
The Head of the center for the contemporary Iran-Russia studies also made mention of issues such as the threats and sanctions against Iran and said: "if the security of Iran is disturbed, the security and independence of Russia will be endangered too. The US and its western allies are trying to pressure Iran to dominate the Caspian Sea and the Persian Gulf and they also want to spread their sphere of influence in the CIS countries and separate Russia from central Asia. They don’t want Iran and Russia to enjoy good and friendly relations with each other are worried about Russia's support for Iran. Actually, the West doesn't want Iran too receive any support from any country, but Russia has its own independent policies ".
He noted: "the policies pursued by the West and specially the US have always demanded Iran from Russia as a victim! This is while the US is the eternal enemy of Russia and always tries to make it difficult for Russia".
Referring to the incidents occurring in the post-election period in Russia in the past few months, this Russian politician said: "The US was behind the unrest and it had devised plots against the Russian people. We have information which shows that the US spent 30 billion dollars to create unrest in Russia after the most recent election there".
The Head of the center for the contemporary Iran-Russia studies also emphasized the necessity of expanding political and economic relations between Iran and Russia and said that he has plans in this regard.
According to Mr. Safarov a delegation from Russia will visit Iran in April and will hold talks with the President, the Foreign Minister and other the high-ranking officials of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
"Iran is considered a major country in confronting the US and its allies and enjoys special conditions", he added
