Javad Salhab: China and Russia are the guarantors of the agreement and the region is facing a comprehensive escalation phase! A political researcher and expert on Iranian affairs, Javad Salhab, confirmed that any agreement between Tehran and Washington will be based on a step-by-step principle, given the Iranian lack of trust in the American government, and noted that China and Russia will act as the Arabs for this agreement. Salhab believed that the success of the agreement may be a strategic turning point that opens the door to a broad de-escalation that includes various arenas in the region.
