Zarif condemns Tehran's regional outlook

Javad Zarif, the former Iranian Foreign Minister, discussed criticisms of Iran’s approach during his speech, focusing on the tendency to portray neighboring countries as sources of threats. He argued that this perspective hampers opportunities for cooperation and regional stability. Zarif emphasized that viewing the region through a threat-based lens fuels hostility and prevents the exploitation of opportunities. He called for adopting a rational approach that addresses challenges positively and seeks avenues for collaboration, citing China’s lessons and the Mao Zedong era, which transformed China from a period of humiliation into a developmental renaissance. Additionally, he criticized the expansion of security measures to social issues, considering it as constraining dialogue and reinforcing negative perceptions. He warned that mutual perceptions of danger between Iran and its neighboring countries, especially Saudi Arabia, contribute to escalating tensions.
