Donald Trump and Americas increasing recession in pursuing its principles and returning its government to targeted policies based on the containment of regional power in Iran through the threat and political pressure revealed in its recent speech to the United Nations (as in the time of George W. Bush), this is an important lesson that the best way to deal with Americas hostile policies to rely on national power resources.

In the latest development, Minister of Foreign Affairs Zarif says in an interview with international media that "it is speculating that the US government will not adhere to Irans nuclear deal." This is likely to be true, since Donald Trump, in addition to demanding the Obama administration of American domestic and foreign policy in all respects, puts the main focus of his opposition to Iran on the basis of controlling the regional role of our country, traditionally the main focus of the Americans has been in regulating relations with Iran. But how should be our countrys policy in dealing with this situation?
One way to deal with this Trump‘s policy is to use the "deep defense" strategy that has emerged in a kind of field in our countrys foreign policy over the past decade. This strategy seeks to strengthen Irans national and regional power globally, more than anything, in its "economic self-reliance" and "exploiting its geopolitical superiority" in order to increase Irans strategic role and role in foreign policy.
In the economic sphere, the focus of this strategy is on interacting with the outside world in order to attract investments, especially in the field of energy, thereby increasing the national economic capacities for the countrys economic development. In the political sphere, exploitation of geopolitical superiority is also important for strengthening interactive approaches and collective and multilateral efforts to stabilize and secure the region. On this basis, Dr. Zarif, the foreign minister, has already defined two Iranian foreign policy interests focusing on economic issues and strengthening relations in the neighborhood.
Donald Trump and Americas increasing recession in pursuing its principles and returning its government to targeted policies based on the containment of regional power in Iran through the threat and political pressure revealed in its recent speech to the United Nations (as in the time of George W. Bush), this is an important lesson that the best way to deal with Americas hostile policies to rely on national power resources. Now, the main excuse for Trump to refrain from prolonging the deal that Iran has not respected the spirit of accomplishment. In his view, the result of the effort that should bring regional cooperation and containment of Iran within the framework of the American political-security trends is just the opposite, and has added to the regional role of Iran.
Of course, this hypothesis is based on an incorrect basis for Americans. As the nuclear deal does not have much to do with regional issues, as the foreign minister has said. I have already said that, some unlike of the prevailing views, they dismantle the regional issues between Iran and the United States. This is not necessarily due to the constant hostility of the two countries, because of the natural algebra of the region and the roles of contradiction. The two countries have very different views on how to solve regional problems, to establish stability and security, to form the source of threats, to fight terrorism, for example, with ISIS, and so on. The experience of international relations also shows that a regional power never wants to modify its independent and influential role in favor of its transnational rivals. In fact, expansion of European, Russian, Turkish, Chinese, and Indian and other ties with Iran after further accomplishment was due to the countrys sovereign regional capacities.
Previously, Iran had come to the right strategic decision that the solution to the nuclear dispute with world powers, especially the United States, would add to Irans national power capacity in favor of the development and stability of the country. On this basis, the areas of nuclear deal were provided even before the government of Hassan Rouhani and in a multi-year process. In fact, it was the process of nuclear negotiations that changed the discourse of domestic politics towards pragmatism and balance in foreign policy.
Regional issues, especially the emergence of terrorism and Takfiri extremism of al-Qaeda and ISIS, have brought new challenges to the Iranian national state with centuries of historical and civilization. Irans response to these threats, for example, in Syria and Iraq, has been to "prevent" the threat from responding quickly to threats in the region by exploiting its superior geopolitical position. Irans neutrality in the Qatari crisis and its opposition to the recent referendum on the independence of the Kurdistan region of Iraq are rightly based on their negative impact on the broader dimensions of instability in the region, in particular the fight against terrorism, which can be sustained at the expense of development and security of the country.
Ultimately, the main goal of the deal from non-prolongation is to send the message that the United States remains loyal to its traditional policies in the region, namely, to control Irans power. Under these circumstances, the best policy for Iran is to focus on the "look inside" strategy, which is building on the resources of the national power to try to secure our independent economic, political and security capacities for an active, interactive and multilateral foreign policy towards Faces with trumps.
