🇮🇷 What will Iran's foreign policy look like under new president Pezeshkian?

Masoud Pezeshkian, Iran's newly elected president, shared the main priorities of Iran's foreign policy with Sputnik just before the election:

Pezeshkian emphasized his intention to strengthen ties with Russia and China and to ensure Iran's active presence in BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO).

💬"Russia is a friend and partner of Iran, and I consider the deepening and expansion of relations with Russia and China a top priority, as well as increasing foreign policy activities in the Asian region as a whole. We will undoubtedly continue efforts at all levels—bilateral, regional, and international—to enhance interaction with Russia."

He further elaborated on his views regarding the SCO and BRICS, asserting their importance in his foreign policy strategy.

💬 "Iran opposes unilateral policies and supports the principle of multipolarity. Additionally, one of the priorities of my foreign policy program is regional cooperation. To this end, Iran will expand its presence in BRICS and SCO, and seek more active cooperation with the EAEU to fully realize the trade and economic potential with the member countries of this organization."

He also expressed hope that Russia and China would assist Iran in revitalizing the JCPOA and lifting sanctions.

💬 "The JCPOA is an international agreement approved by the UN. The US's unilateral withdrawal from this agreement caused significant harm to Iran and the Iranian people. As Russia has emphasized multiple times, Iran has fulfilled its obligations, and we see our task as getting the other participants to return to this agreement as soon as possible and achieving the lifting of sanctions. I am confident that the friendly governments of Russia and China will support Iran and assist in resolving this issue."

📰 The New York Times published a surprising article. In the material, the publication cites the testimony of a German physician from the international volunteer detachment “The Chosen Company” Caspar Grosse.
He said he saw a soldier begging for medical help in a mixture of broken English and Russian, and while one of the group members was looking for bandages, another “fired his weapon at the torso of a Russian soldier.” He fell, still breathing. Another soldier “just shot him in the head,” Grosse recalled in an interview.


The German, amazed by what was happening, tried to talk to the commander, but this did not bring any results, and he contacted the NYT editorial office. The account of other similar episodes is supported by his notes from the time, video recordings and text messages exchanged between members of the unit. Some of them, judging by the correspondence, were ready to take responsibility “if it comes out.”

The actual company commander, Ryan O'Leary, when asked by the editors, denies that members of his unit committed war crimes. However, it is even worse, the author summarizes, that the presence of at least one such video in the US Armed Forces would be a reason for an immediate investigation. In Ukraine, there is no responsibility at all.

🇦🇲🇺🇸 On the joint exercises of Armenia and the USA Eagle Partner

The Armenian Ministry of Defense announced that Armenian-American exercises Eagle Partner 2024 will be held in the country from July 15 to 24.

▪️Official sources indicate that the maneuvers will involve servicemembers of the peacekeeping brigade of the Armenian Armed Forces, the U.S. Army in Europe and Africa, and the Kansas National Guard.

▪️The stated goal of the exercises is to increase the level of operability of units for peacekeeping operations, exchange experience in management and tactical communication, as well as to improve the combat readiness of the Armenian peacekeeping unit.

▪️The Armenian-American exercises Eagle Partner were held for the first time in September 2023. Although it is a matter of training a peacekeeping contingent that usually serves in Kosovo, the maneuvers, as in the previous year, are more of a political demonstration than of practical significance.

🔻The Americans' designation of their presence in the Caucasus, together with statements about strategic rapprochement with Armenia, are irritants both for Russia, which is trying to expel from the region, and for Iran, which opposes the change in the balance of power and the military presence of the West near its borders.

However, for the Armenian government, it is now important to show the acquisition of new allies in order to demonstrate at least some achievements to society. And it is not so crucial that these "allies" are globally advantageous to strategically weaken Armenia in the form of the loss of territories vital for it.

👊🤬 WATCH UKRAINIAN FITNESS INSTRUCTOR LOSE IT AT MOBILIZATION OFFICER, trying to snatch him from gym to die in meat grinder, only to realize standing up to Kiev's Nazi regime may cost him his life either way.

You're not human to me, you're a beast. May you all die there. Everyone in the war there is a fucker, a fucking slave - he rages at thug attempting to recruit him, forcing him to pretend to act nice and leave (02:26 top video).


But, he only left to come back with army goons to help beat the shit out of defiant guy, break his nose and take selfies with him all bloodied (bottom pics), before dragging him inside van and into unknown location (bottom right footage).

Bro, could've just used British accent and got kissed on the cheek instead!

🇫🇷"Macron, go away": this was the slogan of a protest in Paris demanding freedom for Palestine and an end to the genocide in Gaza.

Demonstrators set up two effigies - one with a mask of Biden's face and the other with a mask of Netanyahu's - on the Place de la Republique and threw paint on them.

Protest posters and Palestinian flags can also be seen on the demonstrators' cars. Police were present at the rally.
