Iran refused to receive Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. Why did Iran dare to do this?

Mainly because Japan and the United States are a military alliance. Moreover, Japan has also followed the United States in imposing sanctions on the Iranian economy. So Iran hates Japan very much. Therefore, it is normal to refuse to receive Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. Of course, although Iran rejects Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, their economic exchanges have not been interrupted. Because Japan is a country with very few resources and needs Iranian oil imports to develop its industry.

Refuse to receive the Japanese Prime Minister, mainly because of the relationship with the United States. Because the United States forced Japan to impose sanctions on Iran. Reduce oil imports from Iran. This resolution also makes Iran very unhappy, because Japan is the world's largest oil importer. However, once Iran's oil imports are reduced, it will cause great economic pressure on Iran, especially now that the United States has joined other countries in imposing sanctions on Iran. background. Therefore, Iran's refusal to receive the Japanese Prime Minister is also a signal sent by Iran to Japan.

Of course we know that Japan has insufficient natural resources. Therefore, we will definitely choose to import oil from Iran. And he has also applied for exemption from oil imports from the United States. Then the share of imports may be much reduced, but they will still choose to import oil from Iran. Because it is very important to maintain relations between countries, especially countries with such interests. Therefore, although Japan verbally sanctions Iran. But behind the scenes, it provided a lot of help to Iran. Of course, this was not only for Iran, but more importantly for the security of its own country's energy reserves.

Of course, Iran chose to refuse to receive the Japanese Prime Minister, which also dispelled the United States’ suspicion of the Japanese government. Because of the ambiguous relationship between the Japanese government and Iran, the United States has recently become deeply suspicious. Therefore, once the United States chooses to impose sanctions on Japan as well, it will cause a devastating blow to Iran. Therefore, Iran and Japan may be showing off to the United States on the surface.
