It is very important for Iran to be able to use its political-economic-military geography effectively in order to protect and maintain its national security and to strengthen the position of regional power. This requires Iran to develop coordinated, highly effective and pragmatic strategies for its mainland, coastline and maritime areas. In this context, the study demonstrates Iran’s policies both on the mainland and at sea, including energy security, defense strategy, transportation-infrastructure projects and port investments towards the Southern Coastline. The unique aspect of this article is its simultaneous examination of land and maritime policies towards the entire southern coastline, as well as its presentation of Iran’s energy, defense, and transportation-infrastructure activities in the Southern Coastline from a collective, detailed, and strategic perspective. The purpose of this study is to emphasize the importance of the Southern Coastline in firmly establishing, securing and maintaining Iran’s national security and to examine and analyze the investments in the energy, defense and transportation-infrastructure sectors in this region in line with its national interests.
