Iran Press/ Iran News: As a speaker of the ceremony, the scientific secretary of the conference Mohammad-Bagher Khoramshad referred to the term "the US decline" as one which dates back to about twenty years ago: "This term has emerged for various reasons that internal crisis and being unable to control the situation in Afghanistan are among them."
Many people worldwide welcome the world without the US since they have suffered the imposed oppression by the US as in Yemen, Lebanon, Venezuela, added the scientific secretary of the conference.
He recalled the US unilateral withdrawal from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) and the subsequent sanctions it imposed on Iran as a clear example of oppression which would not be forgotten by the Iranian nation and noted: "It is time for the US to make hard decisions, stay committed and accept Iran as a power in the world."
