According to columnist Breno Altman of Brazil’s Guia Global, what frustrates Western countries most is not necessarily the nuclear deal with Iran brokered By Brazil and Turkey, but the emergence of new diplomatic world powers not under “imperial” control. Altman writes that the U.S. and its ‘subservient European associates” can’t tolerate “the formation of alliances outside of the imperial orbit” and predicts that, “in the coming days, political leaders of the major powers will do whatever they can to reduce the positive impact of the Tehran agreement, discredit it and make it a failure.”
For Guia Global, Breno Altman goes on in part:
The leaders of these countries are showing signs of feeling doubly troubled. First of all, because their imperialist arrogance and genetically induced bellicosity has been undermined by the intervention of a popular leftist leader of the third world. But also because dislike losing the nuclear pretext of their geopolitical strategy.
The warlords have been surprised by the capabilities of President Lula and his openness to dialogue with Iran’s leader. Up until last weekend they assumed that sooner or later, a puppet government would emerge in an Iran subjected to economic suffering and military threats. The Brazilian leader disrupted those plans by facilitating an environment of fair and sovereign negotiations.
But there should be no illusions. In the coming days, political leaders of the major powers will do whatever they can to reduce the positive impact of the Tehran agreement, discredit it and make it a failure. Although they fear this might be exposed to the public, they cannot admit to the possibility that solutions of this magnitude could be adopted without their knowledge. In this endeavor, they will count on the support of a majority of the main channels of communication.
