Former diplomat Moslehzadeh believes that Iran has shown its strategic power to the US by joining the Shanghai Cooperation Conference.
Moslehzadeh told our host that until now the US had imposed its Military and Strategic force on the global equations. “The American naval fleet made their presence felt so a sense of threat would remain all across the world.”
He added that the American hegemony was second to none. “The US tried to impose itself on every conflict. Previously, the British navy held this position and was seen in every sea globally.”
Moslehzadeh further added that even today US ships are present in every water and they believe that whatever incident takes place should remain under their control. Not only they’ve deployed their naval forces in the region but they’ve erected their bases in our neighbor states too.
“A couple of days earlier they winded up their base in Afghanistan otherwise they’re presence was heavily felt in this neighbor country as well.”
Talking to Radio Goftogoo’s “Rooydad” show he said these bases are there to impose the geopolitical power of the Americans in the sea and on the land but it seems that the series of retreat of the US ground forces is not coming to an end; therefore, their exit from Iraq seems inevitable too.
Senior Iranian diplomat Moslehzadeh stated that the Syrian and Lebanese challenge is still ahead for the Americans saying: “Damascus is also trying to push the US out of its territory while the Americans are also feeling the same pressure in Lebanon.”
He pointed out that Washington is facing the same challenge in the Persian Gulf States and said that The Americans staying in these countries is a serious problem itself which is costing them money and danger.
Moslehzadeh also said that some of the American Bases are an easy target for the missiles of the resistance groups and on the other hand neither US nor the Israelis have enough courage to confront Lebanon’s Hezbollah.
Moslehzadeh called this situation a massive geopolitical change saying: “Today, a new set of a balancing power has emerged on the international level across the globe.”
He reiterated that the above-mentioned change is not limited to our region. “The US has lost its previous hegemony; the balance of the international power is changing sides and not restricted to our region.”
