the possibility of war between the united states and iran is being debated around the world that's what it is like inside the country to discuss that the endowed joined by iran's interior minister. or it's possible thank you for your time mr stone is that we're talking several days after the e.u. introduced oil sanctions against iran and i know the iranian leadership has responded by saying the sanctions would do more harm to your advantage iran. still since iran gets seventy percent of its revenues from oil do you have any fears about negative social reactions including strikes as people may lose their jobs do you take this somehow into account in your work. these speculations on new our country and our government or the power of the people all around ruling bodies or in power as a result of popular voting therefore our government and our role for it is

completely popular and our people have participated in all areas and spheres of our life from the very start of the revolution therefore as i've said there's nothing new about these talks which are actually quite outdated and irrelevant nonetheless they keep speculating on this matter of trying to stir up psychological warfare inside our country or in the countries of the region or probably among people of their own countries that have enough of their own problems attempting to find someone else to blame for them we don't sell that much oil to your of illnesses and our european accounts don't have that much money. so you know this that you know it's. the u.s. and the west as a how do not conceal that one of the main tasks of these sanctions is to get the oil prices for the iranian oil lower does decreasing the revenues from the oil iran saudi is the well and two we used to manipulate the political situation. the way we . i believe they've made

a big mistake as this action results in turbulence for the oil and energy markets this very factor can result in oil price growth in these conditions the west should expect the drop in the euro rate and the euro market this new decision will result in further economic problems which as we can see have affected them already and so far they've been unable to find solutions for oil and energy markets will experience instability and turmoil and this factor can boost prices for oil and energy products and jeopardize the market security and this is quite difficult for the markets which going by previous experience is used to consuming certain kinds of oil and energy this also brings up technical and economic issues at the same time we're not worried for iran at all we've ensured our efficient planning in advance and with god's help we will continue moving forward that in the year the decisions taken today by the west unilaterally will result in the escalation of their own economic problems. when this thing iran ians navaids the rankins with the

aggressive and military rhetoric being built up by the west that they aren't as i've said these words and knew that these speculations have been going on for thirty years and there's no news in it to the iranian people the people of iran are in charge and they always participate in everything we don't sense any problems inside the country. if i may i would like to ask you about the recent killing of a nuclear scientist there have been other similar cases and as far as we understand the investigation into it has not made great progress so far why have there been no substantial results and who might be behind the killing. of this is clear is day and they admitted mossad and the cia as well as some european security services don't like to see nations progress they would like to have control and a monopoly over everything and the greater rainy a nation of follows the path of searching for new technologies. it wants to stand

firmly on its feet by means of its own strengths and produce its own knowledge they disapprove of this progress and they don't want to see other nations develop themselves and the fact that they come over to such people's homes or attempt to murder an educated and broad minded university professor that highlights the grave nature of their situation it demonstrates that the us and israel have disgraced themselves in this matter and they speak of human rights but at the same time they officially perform terrorist attacks and promote state terrorism expansion. in their slogans we see their idle talk on fighting terrorism their deeds however do not match their words they brought their troops to afghanistan under the pretext of defending human rights and fighting terrorism and drug trafficking and drugs crops have increased forty fold since the americans got there. the number of casualties among innocent men women and children has increased significantly and so has the level of instability in the region that we actually witness terrorism development

in the region with drug mafia and drug related revenues have grown as well and we see contradiction between their words and deeds. the scientists assassination will only make the iranian people stronger and more focused on their goal will people understand that they've chosen the right path the one of scientific progress the adversary doesn't want to see this happen that it would cause harm to them physical annihilation of people in full daylight is a sign of the adversary's complete powerlessness and despair. yes last i now that iran is having parliamentary elections in a month in many countries not only arab ones election may be used as a way to create provocations there are always some people unhappy with election results and this discontent made snowball i are concerned by this that a similar scenario man followed in iran. no thank god we've had twenty nine elections to date and this election campaign will be. thirtieth election and it

will take place in absolute peace and security like all the previous ones because our dear fellow citizens in all the regions all the cities and villages will willingly come to polling stations and cast their votes to designate their delegates to parliament to serve the purposes of development and prosperity for our country but that's the last you know that r.t. has been comprehensively covering the situation in the arab countries as we have covered the wars in libya and syria we often heard complaints from the leadership that the intelligence services of other countries have stepped up their operations on the territories of the countries concerned in the past year the way many are ledged imaginaries in syria and libya who could see with our own eyes that some people were apparently not libyans but fought on the side of the rebels can you see any increase in the operations of intelligence services from other countries or any attempts to penetrate your territory at least in recent years since the latest events in the arab countries began. you see foreign powers and other enemies are at

work everywhere they might also be present in our country but we do not feel we should worry about this of course we should look out for superpowers and our enemies attempting to interfere in the home affairs of arabic countries especially in syria and in all countries where the people are in charge of running their nations they must keep track of such attempts. i don't know of other ways but. it's been about ts since the arab spring began with a first even the iranian leadership hailed the movement in egypt in libya as expressing democratic sentiments now that one year is passed the attitude towards the events around your country has changed do you still believe those are people driven by their own democratic ideas or do you see hundred other countries in the events of the arab spring. we support any popular movement as long as people demands are. just admit the imperialistic regime of world supremacies is obviously

trying to lead people away from the right path and neutralize the popular movement or transform it in favor of their own interests and the pure straightforward and righteous path that people have been following in a while countries of the region however it is stipulated by their willingness to defend their rights which is a legitimate demand from iran's viewpoint. that it can one say that the instability in the region has considerably increased the narcotic drugs trafficking well. yes afghanistan is certainly the focus of narcotic plantations now the americans and europeans are there and since they came narcotic drugs production has increased forty fold and it's a financial source for most terrorists who infringe the security of central asian states the states of the region and russia itself it's a threat not only for iran but for the region at large and russia if russia fails to keep an eye on what's going on next to its borders and around the country this

threat will most probably become a serious problem for russia itself it's a fact that both iran and russia the main drugs trafficking route where at the beginning of it because the drugs first penetrate our country then followed to turkey and then to europe and on the other hand russia was also on the route that its northern end because the drugs penetrate russia through central asia and then go to europe we suffer serious losses on this route more than three thousand seven hundred lives have been lost in the attempt to resolve this issue. given we as humans are convinced we have to go on with this ruthless battle so as to save our people and despite the fact that the world community does not lend us necessary assistance in this cause we're alone to bear most financial costs and human losses in order to continue the struggle shut down the borders and blockade the territory inside the country in order to prevent the trafficking so it seems iran and russia will have to take responsibility. before the problem themselves had been that he

was in when he was in what is. the pairing for this interview several colleagues approached me and asking if there was going to be between iran and the usa who's had you on so. let me say this again all those fabrications not new to us the islamic republic of iran is a strong power capable of defending its regional security fully and the iranian people being a great and powerful nation are not afraid of those futile threats that. are and. are shot four times in total and there is a. series of bullets are still a lot of. people should be allowed to

defend themselves. people are not. basically. i'm sorry if you know that the bullet comes out here and this makes it go bang and it watching here is going to. that's all the training really really crazy. hopefully we will never have to use the weapons for self defense but we should be prepared. for the future i think. seventeen syrians. are still.
