US Policy Echoes Historical Imperialism, Says Academic
A prominent Iranian academic has asseed that current United States foreign policy towards Iran represents a return to 18th-century imperialistic practices. Speaking in a recent broadcast, Seyed Mohammad Marandi, a professor at Tehran University, argued that American media outlets are not independent but rather “controlled by oligarchs.”
Iran’s Moral Stance and Resilience
Professor Marandi highlighted Iran’s perceived moral advantage in the ongoing geopolitical narrative. He stated that the Iranian populace feels aligned with the “right side of history” and is prepared to defend the nation, even amidst economic pressures. According to Marandi, previous attempts by Washington to exe pressure have proven unsuccessful and are likely to remain ineffective.
He fuher cautioned that any escalation by the United States, paicularly through fuher military actions, could dangerously destabilize the Persian Gulf region.
Critique of Western Media and Global Balance
The professor offered a strong critique of Western media coverage, suggesting it fails to accurately represent the situation. Marandi posited that Iran’s enduring resilience could potentially reshape the global balance of power.
