Jamshid Chalangi:
In tonight’s program of Behind the Headlines we look at the continued water shortage crisis in Iran and the latest case of corruptions among the regime’s top officials.
We will also discuss the consequences of the Iranian regime’s foreign policy for the Iranian people.
Our guests tonight are Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh and Mehran Barati.
Jamshid Chalangi:
Why the Iranian regime cannot solve the water crisis?
Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh:
When a country’s luck runs out, every single day brings a new tragedy and crisis for it. And this is exactly the case of Iran under its present rulers.
We have water crisis, we have electricity shortage, our passenger planes crashevery other month, and you name it.
The reason: A corrupt and decayed and despotic regime that has brought nothing but misery and calamity for the Iranian people since its unholy inception.
Turkmenistan could have supplied Iran’s electricity needs at one fifth of its production cost at home. But the regime has been busy exporting Iran’s electricity and water to Basra in Iraq to buy out its people’s loyalty to Khamenei’s rule.
But now this plot has been exposed and they can no longer continue with selling out our country’s resources free of charge and at the same time there is no money in the government’s pocket to buy power from Turkmenistan. Iran had no water or electricity shortage or crisis before the present regime came to power 40 years ago.
Mehran Barati:
The water crisis in Iran will not be solved that easily simply because the damage that the regime’s policy has done to Iran’s infrastructures is colossal.
They have used up the water resources that would have lasted another fifty to sixty years from now in a matter of ten years.
Furthermore, they do not have any practical solution in hand or do not know how to overcome the environmental damages caused by the droughts.
Jamshid Chalangi:
Could this regime not negotiate with the Europeans about how to solve this crisis, rather than wasting their time talking about how to keep the nuclear deal alive?
Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh:
The fact that the leaders of the regime are hurriedly buying foreign passports for themselves indicates that they do not have much hope about the survival of the regime.
We have the news that says they are busy buying Hungarian, Cypriot and Costa Rican passports for $13000.00 each. They first send their children to these countries under the cover of studying but they buy villas with their embezzled monies and settle there before their corrupt parents join them.
