he won and for any purpose. the goal of the recent terror was to weaken the iranian nation and to halt its growth and development i understand he was working on the coronavirus research is assassination followed the killing of gen cousin sulaimani and now the last days of the trumpet ministration that talking about al-qaeda people in iran the need to attack iran what retaliation will ever will or will air on the enemy's expect from any attack on iraq. the culture of the iranian nation has never throughout history the been after conflict. war or threatening others. and it will not be. basically the error of using the language of threat in national and international

relations the point is over. even though i believe that all nations chad this is strictly a post such an approach called the facts and slam it how sure are you that you are safe in tehran if. iran's enemies can assassinate scientists and generals. this is the type of incident that may occur anywhere in the world if the pressure continues from nato countries do you think that iran is getting closer. economically culturally politically its relations with moscow and with beijing are they are they getting closer. the iranian nation has always sought friendly and constructive relations based on justice and respect with all nations

and that includes the nations of russia and china. but the governments of these 2 countries have so far not been able to stop the enforcement of sanctions you mean that russia and china are failed to stop sanctions on iran yes that's what i said i mean rusher is saying iran is now enriching uranium to rates that are much higher than the j c p a way would allow well that's already in the papers i mean i'll get to coronaviruses in a moment but the u.s. aircraft carrier nimitz has been sent to iran's maritime borders you have the boss of trump's pentagon making accusations against iran

how would iran cope with us well me in the last days of a trump presidency. as i have noted over and over previously the united states major policies including the key issue of war are what the behind the scenes governing board decides and enforces and the presidents don't play determining role in them. not in fact from all the developments on folding and the news being broadcast that. it's my understanding that a new war is about to be imposed on the sensitive region of the middle east. therefore i wrote a letter to the leaders in the region. and asked them to avoid the consequences of such a war. i called on them to try and prevent it from happening. and

warn them about the damage and toll of such a war. for all regional states. you know that when joe biden was vice president president obama bombed some say destroyed africa's richest capita country libya how will biden make any difference to iran u.s. relations he's of course a very good friend of israel i addressed that question earlier on from our standpoint it makes no difference who is president in the u.s. . since major u.s. policies are devised by the governing board behind the scenes. look at the past 70 years yet many crimes against humanity have been committed and a lot of wars and impositions have been waged by consecutive u.s. administrations. and regardless of the party in

office they carried out that mission. during either of the parties time in power similar events have been repeated therefore i don't expect that not to reoccur in the future. and so it makes no difference who is president. if it is the military industrial complex. that controls the usa which is what you're saying what did it make you feel when you saw the pictures of the attempted insurrection in washington that came after you wrote the letter is. appealing for. those are the internal affairs of the u.s. they're almost irrelevant to international policy. they have a lot to say when there was demonstrations on the streets of tehran yes in their

foreign policy they meddle in all the affairs of countries the united states under trump said they have a big new peace plan for the middle east is iran facing more problems because of that now that the united arab emirates bahrain. so many different arab countries they all there have relations with israel is that going to be a big problem for whether it's biden whether it's drugs. this is not about your run it's about palestine i have said this before. that we welcome any positive development but these issues aren't related to the palestinian issue these countries have never been palestine is concerned tens of countries among them permanent u.n. security council members already had relations with the zionist regime and the palestinian issue was still not resolved. the issue of palestine needs to be

resolved in palestine and by recognizing the palestinian nation's right to self-determination otherwise if countries not involved in the palestinian issue take certain measures what difference would that make and so you don't expect any difference as regards alice time under joe biden. it depends on how you analyze the situation today and what your perception of the word change is. i think the governing board in the us. regardless of which party has control of the executive branch and of other centers of power. has always pursued its own interests. yes that they have absolutely never pursued the interests and fundamental rights of the palestinian nation that if not the

history of the past 70 years clearly shows that many say that a nightmare for nato in washington would be if saudi arabia and iran became friends some people say the general custom so they money was carrying a note of some kind of discussion for better relations. what do you think is the future of a saudi iran relations as the united states it seems seeks to support saudi arabia and. look at the moment the status of relations among the persian gulf littoral states. isn't positive shiny that so you know it's lower than what the nations in the region and the iranian nation deserve. i believe that all nations should be friends who if the relations among the nations

in the persian gulf region and especially between iran and saudi arabia. are founded on justice respect brotherhood and friendship. the situation in the region will totally change when i believe that under such circumstances the regional nations will get the chance to play their historical role. of spreading peace brotherhood and security worldwide. intra regional competition and conflict will harm everyone. there will be no winners inside the region. the only winners will be the enemies of the regional states. as a basic strategy. i think the persian gulf literal states the haughty.

should be totally united. and their unity is quite vital for the region and the world. of course the meddling of extra regional powers. has always caused some problems. and i hope the leaders of the countries act more astutely and overt differences in conflicts among themselves. i once again reiterate that the role of iran and saudi arabia in the region is key and pivotal. if they stand together all regional nations including the nations of iran and saudi arabia will benefit from it. and consequently other regional nations will be able to play a more positive and constructive role in international relations. in my opinion that question should be asked this way. while the basic rule in

relations among nations is friendship and brotherhood why should some individuals have nightmares about the friendship of 2 nations should we look for the root cause of all the problems in the sensitive region of the middle east in such ogust nightmares. you might want to say why you think some might see it as a nightmare for washington over a president i'm going to john i'll stop you them all from the older iranian president having this. was a pandemic notion you know born into nationalities. as america be we don't look back seem. to be.

judging us commentary crisis with this system to. you betty we should be. everyone is contributing each way but we also know this crisis will not go on forever the challenges created the response has been much so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are in it together. the problem with having money printing and also near 0 percent or 0 percent interest rates is that it destroys price signals in the economy because you're saying the underlying fundamental substance of the economy that is money money itself is the grow material of economics of capitalism you're saying it has

a 0 value so therefore if you have a 0 ballyhoo for the substance of your economy it's very very difficult to build something that you can point to and say well that has value and that one doesn't have any value because they're both equally value less. americans love buying homes. this was a fundamental part of how our political leadership and our country at large understood the bargain you get a hawk and then you know rebel right as the things you don't revolt if you have a stake in the system. the really interesting down and think about the longer deeper history l.a. housings man in the united states not just that old question of the american dream but the bigger question if you dream is and for.

welcome back to this special edition of going underground in the hole the iranian president mahmoud ahmadinejad job interview this week donald trump's outgoing secretary of state might home pay i mean some extraordinary claims about iran hosting a haida claims were instantly dismissed or around the world al-qaeda has a new home base it is the islamic republic of iran as a result but a lot it's wicked creation is poised to gain strength and capabilities we ignore this iran a qaeda nexus at our own peril we need to acknowledge it we must confront it indeed we must defeated a letter from bin laden and by the navy seals during the about about raid sums up

the relationship since 911 very well in his own words quote iran is our main artery for fun's personnel and communication there is no need to fight with iran unless you are forced to and give me some information that is brand new to the public today. iran decided to allow it to establish a new operational headquarters on the condition that al qaeda operatives abide by the regime's rules governing out to stay inside of the country agency and control since 2015 iran has also given a kind of leaders greater freedom of movement inside of iran under their supervision the iranian ministry of intelligence and security and the arab g.c. have provided safe havens and logistical support things like travel documents id cards passports that enable al qaeda activity as a result of this assistance

a kind it has centralize its leadership inside of tehran iman al-zawahiri is deputies are there today and frankly they're living a normal life tehran has allowed al qaeda to fundraise to really communicate with al qaeda members around the world and to perform many other functions that were previously directed from afghanistan or pakistan a kind of now has time because they're inside iran they have access to money ever range of iranian support they now have new tools for terror you now have the world's state largest state sponsor of terrorism islamic republic of iran as the home base for al qaeda their partners in terrorism partners and 8 this axis poses a grave threat to the security of nations and to the american homeland itself i would say iran is indeed the new afghanistan as the key geographic up for al-qaeda

but it's actually horse unlike in afghanistan when it was hiding in the mountains ok i did today is operating underneath the hard shell of the iranian regime protection while i'm still here with the former president of iran dr mahmoud ahmadinejad as you just heard if someone who's watching this interview in a nato country. they will know that their main media tells them your country is not a democracy it is executing people human rights violations it is. a brutal country that funds terrorism all around the region would you say to people who watch that on the news every day with iran is mention. the right to determine one's fate is a god given right. and no individual group or power or under any circumstances of the time even in the name of providing security is allowed to

limit or deny that right. this is what happened in the world recently and you made a mention of them to which the. in washington and elsewhere issues show that we have a long way to go before we achieve true democracy neither. throughout history. the philosophy of forming governments. has been to provide security and freedom to nations in the let's hug. more however about harmony. on the pretext of providing security from our own. land. rulers have practically turn into obstacles to freedom and security for a nation. the world is in need of a new thought that had he no vision and plan the us what sort of

plan is is that you you have elections coming up of course in iran in a few months time but in different speeches i've announced parts of that plan and one in which it's the will of the nations that's truly ruling. relations are based on humanity friendship and kindness the monopoly of power the monopoly of freedom. the monopoly of wealth is annihilated. and in which power wealth and freedom is enjoyed by each and every human being on earth. across the world today. wealth power and freedom is controlled by a certain group of us who are leading no chance for nations to be free. and to breathe in an atmosphere of freedom. this wish will very soon come true watch.

and every human being will attain their dignity. and deserved status which of course the arabians may i ask why didn't you do that last time when you were president of iran well i think the iranians have access to me and can ask me that question directly ok well i got to ask we don't know whether the elections will be disciplined but it's notable that. company has said that british american big pharmacy vaccines. they could be dangerous for the iranian people he cited the french hiv contaminated blood scandal twitter took down a bit like you have donald trump how bad is coronavirus in iran and i know it's not as bad as in britain capita but i understand that it is taking its toll that

officials are constantly releasing the data on that well we're getting some reports of coronavirus from yemen world's worst humanitarian crisis according to the u.n. do you think the world is forgotten about yemen. i think the people of yemen. are bearing the brunt of pressure resulting from the greed and wickedness of others . it should be openly stated. that the people of yemen are being oppressed. their country's infrastructure is being destroyed the youth women and children are being killed poverty is spreading. and their country is falling behind from a human perspective i felt responsible. and wrote letters to the 2 parties involved

in the conflict announcing my readiness to help resolve the problems and to end the war. i think we should all be worried. about the health and social life of the yemeni people. you see i know your road to saudi arabia is mohamed bin solomon but britain says it gives aid to yemen and has a strict weapons export regime and trains the they have already have trainers to train the saudi pilots so britain gives aid and weapons. anyone who starts a war in the world. or provokes a war. and fans the flames of

a war. that has no doubt committed an act. that's anti-human and unacceptable anyone who perpetrate such an act for any purpose is condemned he didn't write a bar of strength but yes i wrote to the 2 parties and also to the un secretary general and asked the secretary general to pave the way for the establishment of peace. certainly brokering peace is a human responsibility anyone who can contribute should do so and anyone fanning the flames of war should stop with. i pray to god almighty to bestow upon all nations security. progress and peaceful coexistence the daughter all of us and soleimani gave a world exclusive interview to this program and she said that

because of julian a son who is imprisoned here in london we know she said that the u.s. government was on the same side as al qaeda in syria what do you think about the case of julian assange and do you think that britain will kill him in jail here. sufficient information has not been published on the a son issue and i'm not able to pass judgment on him. let me share my message with your viewers the situation that the world is currently in is beneath any human being more than half the world's population lives in poverty and the majority of the world's population lives under security threats and military pressure. the monopoly of power wealth and media has robbed nations and the masses of opportunities. today the world is being managed according to the principles of

political darwinism. what that means is that for some to be strong others would have to be weak if. for some to be affluent. others should be poor. for some to have dignity. others should be humiliated. this ideology is anti-human. and has turned the world into a place where an arms race has jeopardized everyone security. and lead to a significant share of the nation's resources and wealth. being spent. on the purchase of armaments. and weapons have no other use than killing humans. in will do i'm opposed to this world management model. out of the top and believe that all nations and human beings. can live in

friendship. about he some brotherhood. i have absolutely no one. should be seeking hegemony over others. or plundering other as well. we should all endeavor to ensure the dignity of each and every member of humanity. for them to equally benefit from god given natural wealth. and for no one to be dominated by another bush we have to build the world that each human being can have dreams. where those dreams are materialized. and where they can unlock the endless talents that god has bestowed upon them for walking or world where people serve each other where they are friends with one another and where they are each other's companion. just one question finally. are you going to stand

at the june election do you want to become president of iran yes or no in june i have already answered that question today there are more important issues before us and we should be thinking about them at the time of the elections there are issues that if necessary i will share with the people. i once again congratulate you and your colleagues in all nations. on the occasion of the new year and wish everyone well being. that's it for when your favorite shows of the last season will be back on the 12th of may with an end to the local additions and a brand new look out for me bill and you can watch all our interviews by subscribing to our user channel befalling us on your license will be. remembering more on this edition of the program we explain why the russians have

a new version to war contrary to what is said in the west. at the recent g 7 foreign ministers meeting russia was declared reckless and expressed it was really reckless in the press. but the book a chance. to do got the idea for a major almost all bush's last post it took you into. force next to you that doesn't know was happening because i thought my think if you . go fish. bill in water that is that the. bullet was just from the us was. stored once this issue will. go on for. the story to get the. job i have too much of but you need. yes if they seized the door because they show it but they see you could be when you get out of the scott.

peterson you're chicago's 3 securities on the last question his mistress. americans love buying homes. and this was a fundamental part of how our political leadership and our country a large understood the bargain you get a hope and then you know rebel right as the things you don't revolt if you have a stake in the system. and be really interesting to dial it back and think about the longer deeper history of what housings men in the united states not just that old question of the american dream but the bigger question of who the dream is and

for. russia celebrates the 76th anniversary of the red army's victory over nazi germany and the great patriotic war. troops parade on red square and aircraft flying overhead as moscow commemorates victory day our correspondents were there in the heart of the capital taking in all the action firsthand and go. to the full set of the times to.
