Kayhan: The General Outline of the JCPOA Plan Passed Amidst Engineered Controversy!

While Iranian conservative newspapers criticized the approval of the plan related to the Vienna nuclear agreement in Parliament on Tuesday, reformist-leaning media welcomed the approval of this plan and criticized the 'threat' made by the head of the Atomic Energy Organization and the foreign minister by Rouhollah Hosseinian, a representative from Tehran. The Kayhan newspaper referred to the 'Iran's proportional action plan in implementing the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action' as the 'Abu al-Baqa's general outline' and wrote that the general outline of this plan 'passed with engineered controversy!' The Kayhan newspaper also stated that the Parliament's approval on Sunday allows the government to 'implement the Vienna agreement without question.' Nasser Imani, the author of Kayhan's editorial, wrote that the Parliament session on Sunday 'had a highly emotional tone, and some representatives committed a blatant violation of purpose that, if not compensated, could pose significant threats to the country.' The editorial writer emphasized that the implementation of this agreement 'should be conditional on the realization of certain conditions, not that we give permission for implementation and then add footnotes and clauses as a consolation and historical record.' The Vatan-e-Emruz newspaper also referred to Ali Akbar Salehi, the head of the Atomic Energy Organization's statements in the Parliament session on Sunday as a 'Bollywood movie.' In its editorial, this newspaper noted that 'it would have been better if the Speaker of the Parliament had reminded Mr. Salehi that this is ... the place for the representatives of the nation and a manifestation of the republic, not a marketplace, so first, a little slower, because if you are all about shouting and getting angry, it would have been more appropriate to use this talent for loud speeches against the Yankee tyrants of sanctions.' The Javan newspaper, taking a different approach, highlighted the simultaneous testing of a new long-range missile named 'Emad' in Iran with the examination of the Vienna nuclear agreement in Parliament under the title 'Pride of Emad in the Commotion of JCPOA Approval.' In a note written by Abbas Haji Najari, the testing of this missile was described as 'a clear message to the dominant powers' who, according to the writer, 'think they can control Iran's defensive capabilities under the JCPOA.' In contrast to these writings by conservative newspapers, reformist-leaning media reacted to Rouhollah Hosseinian's threat against Ali Akbar Salehi, the head of the Atomic Energy Organization, and Mohammad Javad Zarif, the foreign minister. The state-run Iran newspaper, while publishing a report on the events of Sunday in Parliament titled 'Parliament Stood by the JCPOA,' called the day a 'historic day for Parliament' in an editorial by Majid Ansari, the parliamentary deputy to the President. Mr. Ansari noted that opponents of the Vienna nuclear agreement 'used all possible capacities,' including constitutional warnings, reminders, and 'even in one case, threats' against Mr. Zarif and Mr. Salehi, while also calling the events of Sunday 'natural' and predictable. Kasra Noori, the editor-in-chief of the Shahre Vandan newspaper, also wrote in the editorial of this newspaper regarding the threat to Ali Akbar Salehi by Rouhollah Hosseinian: 'When a society witnesses such a collapse of ethics and knowledge, it is not surprising that it does not understand the necessity of adherence to ethical and social relations and feels no reason to adhere to them.' According to reports, Rouhollah Hosseinian, a representative from Tehran, told Ali Akbar Salehi, the head of the Atomic Energy Organization, during the session on Sunday that 'if the JCPOA passes, we will execute you and bury you in the Arak reactor and pour cement over you.' Kamal al-Din Pir-Mo’een, a representative from Ardabil, also reported that Mohammad Javad Zarif, the foreign minister, was threatened in the Parliament, stating that 'Salehi was threatened with death and Zarif was threatened with execution.' In this context, the day was full of controversy regarding the JCPOA; the concrete for the Arak reactor in the public session of Parliament approved the general outline of the JCPOA plan; threats to Salehi and Zarif of death; changing the game for 'proxy forces'; war against the people in the streets of Iran; the first paragraph; the responsibility of opponents and the possibility of radicalization of Iranian society; the death of the last Mossad representative in Tehran amid the Iran crisis.
