From City-State to National-State

Many explanations have been offered for why the dominant city-states of Italy declined, giving way to the larger, national states of Western Europe. Some, like World Systems theorists, have seen the decline of the Italian city-states as the result of the shift of trade from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic, while others, like Richard Lachmann, have focused on institutional arrangements that rendered these systems less resilient when faced by external threats.

Losers will show up on October 18 through a global match in Security Council

PEJOURNAL - The United States seeks to maintain Iran's arms embargo under the pretext of controlling Iran, and to invalidate Security Council Resolution 2231 as a binding document supporting JCPOA. Iran has also made the most progress in the field of design and production of modern and conventional weapons during the years of sanctions. Washington's real goal is to neutralize Resolution 2231 and to continue unilateralism to humiliate the international community, especially Russia, China and Europe. Europe's passive action in presenting the proposal of the recent anti-Iranian resolution at the Board of Governors meeting showed that Europe is still ready…

Russian representative to the Security Council:

In Pompeo's remarks, at least I did not hear a word of cooperation or dialogue. We are following with concern the developments of the policy of maximum suffocation against Iran. The US goal is to change Iran regime or create a situation where Iran is literally unable to breathe. It's like putting your knee on someone's neck. This crisis has been caused by the United States.

full implementation of JCPOA

Iran's envoy to the United Nations announced the possibility of requesting members of the Security Council for the full implementation of JCPOA "The United States yesterday submitted its report to the Security Council on the extension of arms embargoes on Iran and called for the unity of the Security Council. The State Department's statement did not comment on the Security Council's response. Perhaps the reason for this was the unanimous request of them (members of the Security Council) for the full implementation of the JCPOA and Security Council Resolution 2231. "

Strategic aspects added to Iran-Russia relations

Senior Adviser to the Iran's FM: The Russians offered to give the S-400 instead of the S-300, but the Iranian side refused based on his reasons. If the Syrian government fell, we would see a domino of other events in the Arab State region and the Persian Gulf, that was blocked by the cooperation between Iran and Russia. In the fall of 2015, after General Soleimani's meeting with Putin, Russia launched an operation in Syria. China and Russia have similar opinion in terms of FATF Both because of the problems it creates in bilateral relations and because of the problems…
