Eastern Mediterranean and its impact on the geopolitical exploitation of Iran in Southwest Asia
The Mediterranean Basin is the name of a large area around the Mediterranean Sea. The basin includes the Mediterranean Sea and the continental regions near the coast of southern Europe, north Africa and the eastern Mediterranean. The most important part of the Mediterranean basin, located in the fragile belt of the Middle East, is the "Mediterranean East." This is the center of the rivalry of the three powers of Iran, Turkey and Saudi Arabia. Iran has focused on the Eastern Mediterranean since the beginning of the victory of the Islamic Revolution, and this region is one of the infiltrating centers of Iran. The three countries of Syria, Lebanon and occupied Palestine are the main geopolitical core of Iran in the eastern Mediterranean. In this research, the research methodology was descriptive-analytical and used to collect information from written sources and the Internet, in response to the question of what impact the East Mediterranean has on Iran's geopolitical abstraction in Southwest Asia? It can be said that the Eastern Mediterranean has an important role in the geopolitical exploitation of Iran in Southwest Asia and, ultimately, its leadership over the Islamic world. The findings of the study indicate that the position of the Eastern Mediterranean on the Mediterranean coast, located at the crossroads of the three continents, the proximity to the Straits of Gibraltar and the Suez, the existence of Shiite minorities in Syria and Lebanon, only countries close to Iran adopts regional and global policies, Iran's geopolitical supplements in domination of the central part of the Islamic world, the route of energy transfer between Iran and Iraq to Europe and, finally, Iran's embankment in confronting Israel are important geopolitical factors that make regional policy in the East Mediterranean justify. Therefore, it can be said that Iran's geopolitical erosion in the Eastern Mediterranean is realistic and in line with the national interests of Iran.
