Biden revives Borjam in the first step
The UCLA professor stressed that the agreement with China breaks Iran's policy of isolation and allows Iran to sell oil under sanctions.
Richard D. Anderson is Professor of Political Science and International Relations at UCLA. In an interview with ILNA, he expressed his views on the recent tensions between Iran and the United States.
The agreement with China allows the sale of oil to Iran under sanctions
Speaking about the Iran-China agreement, Richard Anderson said: "China is trying to achieve a trade and investment system with countries around the world, to implement its new belt and road initiative, and eventually to replace the current US global economic system." I think Iran welcomes this Chinese initiative, because it also allows Iran to sell its assets, especially oil, under existing sanctions.
Agreement with China breaks Iran's isolation
"I do not think that the cooperation between China and Iran, especially the United States, will be seriously threatened," he said. China can continue to prosper as long as it retains the opportunity to sell its products in the American and European markets, but if it harms those markets, it will lose its prosperity. I think the agreement with China will make it easier for Iran to sell oil and maybe natural gas. Thus, Iran is breaking its economic isolation with these measures.
The pressure on Iran and Venezuela is designed for Trump to win the election
"Every US policy is fundamentally designed to win the US election, and although I think Trump will fail, he thinks his hostile approach to Iran and Venezuela gives him a number of electoral votes," he said. Will donate. The worst thing for Trump will be the fall of Iran and Venezuela, because if he loses his foreign enemies, how can he persuade the people that his policy of pressure is necessary? So the policy is not US pressure to overthrow Iran or Venezuela, it is just to win Trump.
In the first step after winning the election, Biden revives Burjam
"Borjam is a good agreement and it works well, I think Biden will win the next election and the first thing he will do is revive Borjam," he said.
