Press TV has conducted an interview with Kevin Barrett, an author and Middle East expert, and Jonathan Fryer, a writer and lecturer, to discuss the relations between Iran and the United States 37 years after the 1979 Islamic Revolution.

Barrett says the warnings by Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei about the US’s threats against Iran are right, and that Tehran has to continue on its independent course and remain skeptical of Washington’s intentions.

He says the United States has continued its hostile policies toward the Iranian people since the victory of the Islamic Revolution, but all to no avail.

Elsewhere in his remarks, Barrett says US Republicans beat the drums of war, adding that if one of the Republican presidential candidates wins the 2016 election in the US, the road will be paved toward World War III.

Fryer, for his part, says Washington is on the one hand welcoming the nuclear deal with Iran but is on the other hand threatening new sanctions against the Islamic Republic.
