In this paper, it is attempted to address foundations of the Islamic Republic and consider the effect of some instrumental requirements in the foreign policy arena in the path of sustainable development. Some key issues include being away from the creation of a security environment for the country, striving for detention, matching ideals with facilities and possibilities, attending to international norms and standards, selecting a proper discourse in expression and pursuit of ideals, etc. Complying with the requirements in the foreign policy arena can have a significant impact on the development of the country and give rise to a with the international environment. The main constructive interaction is considered as the key to reach national interests and take steps in the paths of development. In the end, providing a definition of not out of passivity but authority, the writer attempts to introduce it from a stance of protecting national interests and international reputation of Iran in the path of growth and development. The period of creating a security and contrastive space in international relations has elapsed, and lack of role-playing as well as addressing conflicts in regional and international arenas are not considered as a privilege but rather a weakness or shortcoming.
