which on the cheap leave those doing about anything. to teach me really shouldn't why you should care about human to. this is why you should. only. welcome back this is these are the headlines. protesters stormed the u.s. embassy in yemen as a wave of here is friends are calls the muslim world as a response to a u.s. made film which mocks islamic one person has reportedly been killed and several wounded in clashes with police outside the compound and some. class does and gas are exchanged between protesters and police in cairo as another to you as a demonstration descends into scenes of violence based on the country's president isn't brussels aiming to strike business deals with the e.u.

. on does moscow probably condemns all the time so u.s. diplomats some experts say these kind of war inevitable because of washington's controversial policies in the region. so israel is getting increasingly chattery over iran's nuclear program trying to hold to persuade trying hard to persuade rather the u.s. to do something and protect it from its a main enemy and next political scientist in. jersey from tehran university explains well the future may hold for both nations. not harvey and jesse professor of political science at the university of tehran it's great to have you with us sir today it's

a pleasure to be here so you've done this just hosted a huge international event all the nonaligned movement summit with a hundred and twenty countries present at this event regardless to us in israel the warnings not to do so what message exactly is iran sending out there. you are basically attempted to say that we are so late that the way the west has a time to. the principle of message for you on. was. convincing the international community particularly the west that iran is not isolated let's resolve our issues. on the basis of negotiation rather than sanctions rather than diplomatic pressure rather than political isolation well one could call it probably diplomatic power you have hundred twenty countries coming to you regardless emerick is saying don't go this

play of such diplomatic power does this immunize you maybe from a possible strike that everyone has been talking about or some no not. all that could means that these rallies are would attack iraq because that would not serve their interests that would not help them crack she their objectives. would be. basically costly for them to they can begin this drug they can begin the ball but they're not true on would respond when iran is going. the response you own is going to respond i mean these are the important question which is this cannot predict. and in fact no one can predict all year on is going to respond but do you have like a guess how much could a war with iran cost the global economy but no doubt i mean as soon as there is the first planes or the first missiles are flying all the wrong over the price of oil

is going to. jump at least for a while and that would. basically economy problems now. that would be a very helpful incentive for the global economy will says what started talking about this possible strike. the united states is have different views on whether this strike should take place or not what will happen in your opinion after the u.s. presidential election i guess if president obama is reelected he would have time to. work out a plan that would be been appreciative for both america and iran up to this point the american. basically can see that the pressure. in the presidential election the kind of dismissed the pressure from these. i guess president obama would be more

reading to take reese. diplomatic efforts well you just mentioned that you don't actually think that israel would go ahead with the strike but if it were to start something does it actually have the capitalists to fight a war with iran to say the. up to this moment almost convinced not totally convinced that is. doing that basically for putting pressure on international community and particularly in america in a presidential election they want to get more they want to. make america. great lines which is no enrichment or zero enrichment on iraq because they feel that i mean right there is a best time to pressure america for accepted that red line if america accept that red line which they have not accept that they're not there it's that they redline is iran having basically the actual weapons but in case they decide to attack to me

they will not achieve their objectives they're not they don't have the capability to attack iran at most they can attack by missiles and planes to places. which that too would not. mean see iran. basically not to pursue its nuclear program in fact let me put it that way that can that can bring the radicals of iran radicals in terms of. nuclear program those who are all going for nuclear weapons in other words dad would be the best. case scenario for them that the israeli attack. can basically. to me. strengthen the hands of the radicals ones that are. what the absolute majority of the rainy and pundits and in the. data once the weapons to me what they want is

a capability all doing that since two thousand two thousand and three that iran doesn't want the weapons you don't want the capability but what is your personal take on ahmadinejad saying that he wants to wipe israel off the face of our course this is to me mostly a rather a rather than a plan but it's something that a president a country comes out and says to the world media to me that's very unfortunate. that the president of the country would say that but i'm not at all con men still rather convinced opposite that there is no plan. well walking. from the mouth of the earth but ok with very strong rhetoric like you've said i mean president of your country saying he wants israel gone from the map from the world map with the rest of the world still not convinced that you guys don't want to make a nuclear bomb what other cards iran have to prevent a war. to the rest of the world you can see that particularly you can see if you

can trees countries that really call the shots let's let's say it like that exactly yes i fully agree on that. yes. not convinced that iranian make up a. space where. they may decide to. wage a war on iraq but what can we do in preventing that war. two hundred winston international community. programs on this piece to national community. called doing on what we can. also. bringing influential figures. of the war to iran. presenting our case of them convincing them there is no reason. why you probably weapons a number of important it's

a national relation with the. basics we. can see that in this situation iran should have nuclear weapons. but i will argue. that fourteen reason why iran is not pursuing those not one to have. nuclear weapons. and the reason is that is not going to enhance security. in the region and internationally that would be very stupid of the role. it's broken when talk a little bit about the sanctions iran's oil revenues have declined since the western sanctions won in place and i know that the government has come out and set you were in times that it hasn't really affected anything but they have these sanctions have eaten into you running the con i'm really having a school problem no doubt the sanctions are hard important impact in

a wrong but if you say that. to convince the rain in. richmond no they are not in the long term sanctions are going to have to you know very much and that's why. in fact. situation these with the current situation is very good for the americans why they should change the course so that's why to me why it is why the americans are all going against israel is that we can achieve our objectives in the bushes. and that's a very. excellent plan for the americans they have cornered on a lot of pressure all sorts of pressure on their own. they said let's. see what would happen what about from the iranian side to me that's not that's not that's not. a very good situation. changed the element

of the calculus. that the strategic calculus so that the americans. feel that ok it's not going to remain the same. introduction of another element the military option. would change the. strategic landscape. so that's why. a lot of america is pressuring israelis don't take any don't take any action which would change. strategic plan mr you know another topic that the united states and iran actually disagree on is syria and whether i should stay or leave how long should iran help the current government in syria to hold on and if. it would that make the iranian government feel a little vulnerable now unfortunately due to particularly saudi arabia

and qatar ease. the talking. serious situation is in a very dire situation many people are being killed. and i doubt that. things are going to be resolved their c.e.o. for the next. decades. is not going to be the same soon they're going to be so much engaged with the much as it did to iran or for iraq especially assad goes and he will probably go sooner or later it depends who would come on to me the best case scenario would be to preserve the regime. to preserve at least this state. but the. coming actively being involved. with the turkey by the saudis particularly

to come up with this is. some. sort of national unity government can be formed. with this state but they. are going up from the pound that will be the best case or the most probable case otherwise it is going to be. chaos for. four years to call. it is not going to be contained within syria. lebanon and iraq is going to be influenced and when they are influenced yemen cannot be. from the situation so he cannot be killed from the situation you don't and you cannot be immune from the situation and rather the whole region georgia all the all going to be impacted if if the conflict is not contained within the sea the professor had in jazz the thank you very much for this interview pleasure to do with you the enjoy.
