In other words, the mountains will remain ours:· (Un­ official translation from Arabic) The Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran deems it necessary to draw the attention of the inter­ national community once again to the following facts: I. This is not the first lime that Iraqi officials at the highest ranks have confessed lo the territorial ambi­ tions that the ruling regime of Iraq has in Iran. 2. The western highlands are not the only ter­ ritories in Iran that Iraq dreams of annexing. 3. Statements like the one quoted above leave no doubt about the true objectives of the Iraqi war of aggression against Iran, namely the destruction of the Islamic Revolution and the annexation of Iranian ter­ ritories. 4. Iraq has been conducting a vast propaganda campaign during the past three years deliberately to deceive the international community as regards the truth of what is happening on the war fronts. What better proof of the unworthiness of Saddam Hussein"s words than the fact that last year, he officially declared the complete withdrawal of his troops to international borders for the sake of peace, when the Commander of his Fourth Army was boasting last week of the ter­ ritories that Iraq still occupies and intends to keep. 
analysis: The text appears to be a statement from the Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran, addressing the international community about the war between Iran and Iraq. The focus is on territorial disputes, specifically the annexation of Iranian territories by Iraq, and the propaganda campaign conducted by Iraq. There is no mention of economic development, natural resources, agriculture, industry, transport, communication, health, education, employment, humanitarian aid, culture, or science and technology.
