Iran, Russia, and China sent a joint message to the Secretary-General and the President of the Security Council, claiming that according to paragraph 8 of Resolution 2231, all provisions of this resolution will terminate after October 18, 2025

The End of Security Council Hegemony and the Beginning of the New World Order Era

‏✍ Yasser Jabraeli

‏ 🗒The joint statement issued by China, Russia, and Iran at the United Nations on October 18, 2025, represents a historic turning point in the transition of the international system from Western hegemony to a genuine multipolarity.

‏ 🗂This statement not only rejects the reimposition of sanctions through the snapback mechanism but also embodies a shift in the balance of international legitimacy. Moscow and Beijing explicitly declared that one of the Security Council's mechanisms has lost its legal basis, which calls into question the legitimacy of the Council itself.

‏👌When the two major powers take a coordinated stance with Iran against the "snapback," it signals a decline in the West's ability to forge consensus within the international system. The statement emphasized that Europe has lost the legal capacity to activate the mechanism due to its failure to fulfill its obligations, thereby turning the Security Council into an arena for conflict among major blocs.

‏👋 Iran must realize that defending a system of which it was a victim means remaining captive to rules formulated to restrict it, and that international institutions operate according to the balance of power, not justice. Therefore, preserving the credibility of this system is a strategic mistake.

‏ 🌕The trilateral statement offers Tehran a historic opportunity to break free from a defensive posture and actively engage in a new world order based on multilateral cooperation and mutual respect. This new order is not centered around the dollar or Western institutions, but around new regional and economic partnership networks.

‏ 👍Seeking to revive the existing system or negotiating to appease the West is nothing but a reproduction of old constraints. The world is on the verge of the collapse of the unipolar system, and the coordination between China, Russia, and Iran is clear evidence of this shift.

‏ 🌕The path forward for Iran is to capitalize on global divisions and participate in shaping new rules through rational offensive diplomacy and by strengthening its own pillars of power.

📄The October 18 statement is not the end of the nuclear dossier, but the beginning of a new phase in international politics where legitimacy is measured by the ability to build just and independent systems. If Iran sees itself as a founding actor, it will transition from a position of weakness to one of initiative in the coming world order.
