Iran Yemen relations have become a major issue in debates over US-Iran negotiations and Tehran’s wider foreign policy. In this interview, Dr. Foad Izadi examines why Iran continues to support Yemen and Palestine while facing pressure to change its regional approach.
The discussion explores the history of nuclear negotiations, including the 2015 JCPOA agreement and the challenges created by sanctions and a lack of trust between Iran and the United States. According to Izadi, Iran’s decisions are shaped by long-term security calculations rather than short-term economic incentives.
Iran Yemen relations are also connected to a broader regional strategy involving Palestine, Syria and the Axis of Resistance. The interview examines whether sanctions relief could convince Tehran to change its alliances or whether Iran views these relationships as essential parts of its national security policy.
