Очаровательное наступление Рохани в Нью-Йорке.

Новый президент Ирана Хасан Рохани, который в настоящее время находится в Нью-Йорке, где принимает участие в ежегодном заседании Генеральной Ассамблеи Организации Объединенных Наций, воспользовался возможностью, чтобы обратиться к западным лидерам и нациям и дать ясно понять, что Иран хочет завершить  десятилетия международной изоляции и быть конструктивным партнером в международном сообществе и, что Иран не представляет никакой угрозы для мира. Однако, Рохани также дал понять, что Иран ожидает, что его будут воспринимать как равного.

В интервью корреспонденту CNN Кристиане Аманпур, Рохани сказал на английском: "Я хочу заявить американскому народу, что я пришел с миром и дружбой от иранского народа к американскому".

Ранее Рохани встретился в Нью-Йорке с президентом Франции, Франсуа Олландом - первая встреча между президентом Ирана и крупным западным лидером за последние десятилетия.

И президент Рохани, и президент США Барак Обама, сделали позитивные заявления, во время своего выступления на сессий Генеральной Ассамблее ООН, с разницой между их выступлениями всего в несколько часов во вторник. Однако, встреча двух президентов не состоялась. Иранская сторона заявила, что не было  времени, чтобы подготовиться к ней должным образом. Оба президента борятся с ястребами среди их политических элит, которые не поддерживают такое сближение. Импульс американо-иранского примирения будет зависеть от прогресса в дискуссиях между Ираном и международным сообществом по ядерной проблеме. Рохани вновь заявил, что Иран не стремится к обладанию ядерным оружием, но президент Обама настаивает, что любые такие заверения должны быть проверены.

Dozens participate in new Armenia-Azerbaijan dialogue process as societies prepare for the signing of historic peace agreement

The governments of Armenia and Azerbaijan have recently agreed the text of a historic peace agreement that ends years of animosity and warfare. The agreement is expected to be signed soon. LINKS Europe, which has a long history of engagement with the process of peace in the region, recently launched a new Armenia-Azerbaijan dialogue format in the framework of the European Union's EU4Peace initiative. In the last two weeks dozens of Armenians and Azerbaijanis, including academics, students, civil society activists, journalists and other professionals, many of them young, were involved. The work is organised in five thematic groups focusing on peace and security, connectivity, environment, governance and gender and equality and in phase 2 of the project, which has just ended, around fifty participants took part in in-person and online meetings, and more than twenty others were involved indirectly. The Chairpersons of the five thematic groups met in Vilnius, 3-6 July to launch the third phase of the program. The five thematic groups are now working on separate reports, which are expected to be finished in November and presented to the two governments and other stakeholders. The reports will outline a vision, up to 2040.
