Seyed Hossein Mousavian – 18 April 2024
All piecemeal, short-term remedies in past decades have failed. Regional and international actors must come together for a broad and sustainable peace.
During my mission to Germany as Iranian ambassador in the 1990s, a broader package was agreed between Chancellor Kohl and President Rafsanjani to resolve major disputes between Iran and the West. The US rejected it. If the United States had cooperated, the conditions in the Middle East today and Iran’s relations with the West would have been different. But this important historical precedent can still be utilized.
