UPDATE ON IRAN- No. 630- June 10, 2010

The Beginning of the End of the Clerical Rule in Iran
No.630


International Community on the Side of People of Iran
Once more it was proved that the clerical regime is not negotiable; the only solution is decisiveness
Tehran- June 9, 2010
Students Committee in Iran welcomes the 7th resolution of Security Council in regard with nuclear projects of religious fascism ruling Iran and the approval of the fourth course of sanctions against this regime.
Approval of these sanctions after two years of futile negotiations proved once more that the only result of negotiations with this regime is giving more time to it to complete its nuclear projects.
During the last few months the clerical regime tried hard to stop the approval of this resolution. It used every stick and carrot in that regard. The last ring of this chain was its deceptive show using Turkey and Brazil.
These two years also proved that the mullahs count any negotiation or given privileges as the weakness of International Community encouraging it more in its nuclear projects.
Thus the only correct attitude towards this regime is complete decisiveness; a policy that from one hand would include thorough sanctions and from the other hand would guarantee the right of people of Iran for resistance against religious fascism.

News on Iran Economy

No foreign company is willing to engage in contracts for South Pars oil and gas field
Tehran, June 8, 2010
There are still no contracts for sections 13, 14, 15, 20 and 21 of South Pars because no foreign company is willing to invest in these projects.
Ali Vakili the manager of Pars Oil Company had announced about a month ago that the ceremony for signing contracts for two sections of this filed will be held around the end of April but after more than a month there is still no news of such contract.
The permission for investment in these sections as well as sections 22 and 24 has been approved since 5 years ago but there have been no new contracts for these sections so far.
Foreign investment has been stopped because this regime is politically instable and is at the wake of new sanctions.
This oil and gas field is a common field between Iran and Qatar. Qatar has brought up 16 sections of this field to the production level and has an income of 4 billion dollars from each section.


Export of Terrorism

Regime’s meddling in Latin America
Tehran, June 8, 2010
In an inner report, the Center of Presidential Research pointed to regime’s goals and plans in Latin America.
The report is titled: “Eradicating Threats from around Islamic Republic and Establishing New International Courses”.
The reports reads in part: “though the region of Latin America is not in the first circle of security of Islamic Republic’s foreign policy and there is no possible military and economical threat coming from the countries of this region but some issues will indirectly affect interest and security of all countries. The first and most important mutual issue between Iran and other regions is the issue of Iran’s nuclear record. We well know that some of the countries of this region are currently non-permanent members of Security Council. Thus the political role and positions of these countries is effective in any positive of negative position they take in this council.”
Then the report points that having relation with these countries is important for detouring the sanctions.
But what is the ultimate goal of regime in its activities in Latin American countries? The report says: “broadening the strategic depth of Islamic Republic”. This is how the goal is put: “we must raise our position so that we can infiltrate in this region to the level that it would lead to the strategic depth of Islamic Republic”.
