FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda “If they recognize Iran’s rights, then obviously the Iranians will change their attitude and work and develop ways in which the greatest trust can be developed,” professor of Tehran University Mohammad Marandi said in an exclusive interview with Press TV.
He also criticized the West for adopting harsh policies against the Islamic Republic.
“It is the Western mentality that has to change. If they want to use carrots and sticks, which is a pretty I think racist terminology, or tighten the noose, as they call it, which again is a very distasteful phrase, then I think they are not going to get anywhere,” Marandi said.
The analyst added that many Iranians believe the issue has so far not been the Iranian nuclear energy program because there is no evidence about a military aspect in the program.
Marandi said the extra sanctions imposed against Iran aimed to destroy the country’s economy and put pressure on the people of Iran.
“The fact that they try to impose sanctions on the Iranian Central Bank and the oil industry is an attempt to even prevent Iran from importing or exporting food stuffs. So the attempt is to destroy the Iranian economy and this only angers ordinary Iranians who see this as a really inhuman and barbaric measure,” he said.
Iran and the P5+1 — the US, Britain, France, China, Russia plus Germany — wrapped up the first round of talks in the Turkish city of Istanbul on Saturday.
