Embargoes Put Executives Lives at Risk, Expert on Death of Iran's President in Helicopter Crash
On Sunday, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi along with his delegation, including Foreign Minister Amir Hossein Amir Abdollahian, perished as a result of a helicopter accident on their way home from Azerbaijan.
Lives of leaders are put at risk due to economic embargoes, Karine Bechet-Golovko, PhD in law and visiting professor at Moscow State University, told Sputnik Africa, following the death of Iran's president in a helicopter crash.
"Embargoes lead to endangering the lives of leaders," she said.
Sanctions "imposed by the United States for political reasons" complicate the technical monitoring of aircraft and thus
compromise the safety of many people, including politicians, the expert explained.
Ebrahim Raisi's disappearance "raises the question of whether, apart from the weather conditions and perhaps a problem with the aircraft's technical statics, there may have been some help from foreign [intelligence] services," she added.
Moreover, the analyst wondered whether the West might be "resorting to a system of international terrorism" to destabilize countries "that could weaken the Atlantic coalition."
According to the expert, the
Iranian president has "become one of the figures of the anti-globalist world [...] who fights for the defense of national interests" and for a multipolar world.
Tehran's membership of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and the BRICS, two groups that do not align with Washington's position, serves as a proof to this statement, Bechet-Golovko argued.
Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi lost his life in a helicopter accident on May 19.
