Iran's Vice Consul Bekhdali announced that Iran has unilaterally exempted 28 countries, including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait. Beginning Feb. 4, citizens of these 28 countries can travel to Iran for tourism purposes without a visa as long as they buy a ticket, Beckdali said.
This move shows Iran's strong position in the Middle East and also reflects the strategic failure of the United States in the Middle East. Iran not only controls nucleic acids, but also controls the Red Sea, and at the same time has reached a rapprochement with the rest of the Islamic world, which gives Iran the confidence to declare visa-free access to 28 Middle Eastern countries including Saudi Arabia.
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is stationed at the entrance to the Persian Gulf and controls the entire Persian Gulf oil**, while the Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen control the shipping lanes from the Red Sea to the Suez Canal, which means that Iran de facto controls the world's oil**, and the world's most important shipping lanes**. The Suez Canal on the Red Sea, energy and goods, are all under Iran's control, making Iran now a proper hegemon in the Middle East.
The United States was squeezed out of the Middle East by Iran, and now it is facing all kinds of anti-American forces, and its ally Israel is surrounded by all kinds of anti-American forces, and the United States itself is heavily indebted and simply cannot afford to fight another Middle East war, because after the battle, whether it wins or loses, one thing is certain, the United States will definitely lose its current global hegemony, or face the collapse and collapse of the dollar system, and this consequence makes the US military not only afraid of the Middle East.
Now Iran suddenly announced visa exemption for 28 countries in the Middle East, indicating that Iran has settled the contradictions within the Islamic world, after all, most countries in the Middle East rely on oil to survive, and no one dares to offend Iran, which now controls the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea, and Iran has more Russian support behind it, and the alliance of Iran and Russia is absolutely capable of mastering the global oil and gas ** discourse, and under the alliance of the two sides, whether it is the energy market in East Asia or the energy market in Europe, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the United States to intervene in the future.
