America's unattainable dreams in the Persian Gulf!
Iran, as a country that according to international laws has an important part of the waters of the Persian Gulf to the Sea of Oman, considers itself obliged to implement the regulations for the harmless passage of ships through these waterways based on the same international laws.
NOURNEWS - John Kirby, the spokesperson of the US Department of Defense, said on Friday: “Today, the Ministry of Defense will take a series of measures to strengthen our defense situation in the Arabian Gulf (Persian Gulf).”
This American official claimed; The United States of America has seen repeated threats and attacks by Iran against commercial ships.
The US Navy's fifth fleet based in Bahrain also announced that the Pentagon plans to increase the number of ships and aircraft patrolling the Strait of Hormuz.
The US Navy's 5th Fleet continued with its statement and claimed: That Washington's goal with this decision is to prevent the seizure of more ships by Iran.
Meanwhile; "Brad Cooper", the Central Commander of the US Naval Forces, said: "Iran's irresponsible, illegal, and unjustified actions in harassing commercial ships must be stopped." The 5th Naval Unit and our partners are committed to protecting international maritime rights.
"Anthony Blinken" US Secretary of State said in a meeting with his Kuwaiti counterpart: "Iran's interference with commercial ships is against international laws and disturbs the security and stability of the region."
At the same time as these media attacks against Iran's naval forces in the Persian Gulf, the United States claimed to seize a illegal barge carrying drugs, which foreign media attributed to Iran!
The thread-like arrangement of the pieces of the puzzle of changing public’s point of view against Iran is centered on the show of American Hollywood authority in the Persian Gulf, while according to international laws, the Islamic Republic of Iran has the right to legitimately defend its security and interests in its territorial waters and insists on calling these areas "free waters". It is in contradiction with international laws in the field of maritime affairs.
Iran, as a country that according to international laws has an important part of the waters of the Persian Gulf to the Sea of Oman, considers itself obliged to implement the regulations for the harmless passage of ships through these waterways based on the same laws.
According to maritime laws, ships are required to pass harmlessly, comply with the laws and privacy of the coastal countries of the waterways, further comply with environmental principles, and have active positioning devices to restrain them from any dangerous activity and furthermore so they could not disturb the security of the waterways.
At the same time, warships and submarines are also obliged to comply with international laws regarding their passage through waterways and coastal countries of these waterways.
Relying on indigenous knowledge as well as a powerful and responsible navy, the Islamic Republic of Iran considers itself obliged to observe all these principles and guide other countries to do them as well, and with any violation by any vessel with any flag and Nationality to confront.
Accordingly; All the documents indicate that the seizure of all vessels claimed by the Western countries by Iran was due to non-compliance with international regulations by these vessels, which, while violating international laws, endangered the safe passage of other vessels.
On the other hand; The US is trying to present Iran as a violator of the security of the region and the world, while extra-regional countries such as the United States and England have no rights to this region according to international laws, and their presence in the Persian Gulf has only resulted in destruction and insecurity.
If America's presence in West Asia has led to widespread crises and crimes on land and in the air, it has also had such a procedure in the maritime arena, so its withdrawal from the region can create a platform for peace and stable security in the region's waterways and strengthen the harmless passage of vessels.
Another important point to attest to is that; While the US claims a regional consensus against Iran, the development process in the region shows the depth of the regional countries' trust in the Islamic Republic and everyone's efforts to avoid the unilateralism of the US.
The development of Iran-Saudi relations, Iran's security agreements with the UAE and Iraq, Tehran-Muscat military and security agreements, along with the Arab League's approach to reviving relations with Syria as a strategic ally of Iran, is clear proof of this claim.
Iran's successful fight against terrorism, including against pirates across international waterways and its valuable role in establishing a safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz, has been an important component in this successful trust-building with the countries of the region, which also reveals the region's need for outsiders.
according to this; The Americans' anti-Iranian claims can be seen as a repetition of the same unprincipled behaviors and positions, which are aimed at covering up the weakening of America's position in the international arena and intensifying the demand for America's expulsion from West Asia.
