Kerry looks different but Judgment on his Iran policy premature

During the time Hillary Clinton was leading theU.S. foreign policy, her ministry was under the influence of the figures near to Zionists and the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), however it is expected that John Kerry’s office will keep a distance from those lobbies which would be a positive move. Although Kerry, the former chairman of the Senate foreign relations committee is an independent and anti-war politician, it's premature to judge about the developments he would possibly make to the American diplomacy. In order to observe the topic more closely, KhabarOnline held an interview with Mohammad Farhad Koleini, a senior analyst of strategic issues which as follows:
Are you optimistic about the appointment of John Kerry as the new U.S. Secretary of State?
In different occasions, Mr. John Kerryhas tried to express his positions prudently.Earlier as a former Democrat Senatorvisiting the west Asia, he declared his interest in making a travel to Iran and that was not the first time he made such proposal. Although he was engaged in Vietnam war, he has always been one of the staunch opponents of war. One must wait and see his performance in the new post. I suppose we should consider his stances on the crucial international problems including Iran's nuclear program for a better judgment. The first 100 days of Mr. Kerry’s acts at the helm of U.S. foreign policy systemwill provide a good trial for his approach.
What was Israel's response to his appointment?
Disappointed from putting influence on the U.S. president Barack Obama, the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is trying to adapt his government with the new situation as he congratulated Mr. Kerry.
In your view, will Mr. Kerry adopt a different approachfrom that of Mrs. Clinton?
In many cases Mrs. Clinton’s approached international issues including Iran's confrontation with the West over its nuclear program outside the framework of the Department of State. Many recommendations that her advisers made were not correct and sensible, so they created preconceptions for her which should be eliminated for American diplomats in future.
I believe multifaceted thinking and taking advantage of opportunities is a must for achieving one's goals in the realm of foreign policy. She could not realize the influence of Iran in the Middle East region and her ministry began using a threatening language in addressing Iranian issues. Moreover imposing new sanctions on Iranaggravatedthe already strained relations between Iran and the West powers. On the other hand, Mr. Kerry would be able to convince at least Democrat senators to take their decisions more into consideration.
Is it true that John Kerry has a good personal relation with the Syrian president Bashar al-Assad?
Before the Syrian crisis, Mr. Kerry had met the Syrian president Bashar al-Assad. He has a good knowledge on the Arabian country but Syrian development is a geopolitical battlebetween the West and the East. The European countries and France in particular are on a new foreign policy trial in Mediterranean region as the United States officially recognized the Syrian opposition on one hand and called some extremist opposition factions as terrorists on the other. The currentallies of the United States in the region are those who formerly were waiting for the defeat of the Democrats in the U.S. presidential election and backed Mitt Romney’s proposed policy in the Middle East. I believe time has come for the American officials to revise their diplomatic plans in theregion and consider the interferences of the Israeli regime in the affairs of other countries in the region and even the domestic affairs of the United States.
