Quotations

JD VANCE: "Iran could be the richest country in the Middle East if they trust United States."  
ABBAS ARAGHCHI: "Excuse me, Look how prosperous Syria, Afghanistan, and Iraq became after they trusted the United States."

[Isn't the fall of Assad in Syria more Turkey's doing?]


"The attempt to isolate Russia from the American world system has had a striking unintended consequence—the possible founding of an alternative world system that would draw power away from the existing one. Twenty years ago, under George W. Bush, the United States removed the Iraqi deterrent from Iran’s neighborhood, transforming Iran overnight into a regional power. This year, under Joe Biden, the United States has made China a gift of Russia’s exportable food and mineral resources." Christopher Caldwell, Claremont Review of Books Summer 2022 issue
