Abstract :
    The geopolitical system of a country and its foreign policy are intertwined so that if the units converge The spatial-political (countries, regional organizations, divisions, urban and rural areas) between these two components, the geopolitical weight of the country has increased substantially and the country s status as a national-level political area in international policy value , Political identity and function are undergoing changes. On the other hand, neither the Eastern nor the Western policy as a major policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran, as well as the specific geopolitics of Iran, including the Middle East region as the intercontinental of the three continents of Asia, Europe and Africa, must formally regulate the foreign policy of the country. Understanding the international system can also identify, consolidate and develop national goals. The creation of a new Silk Road under the auspices of China s foreign policy indicates that it must also be included in the foreign policy priorities of the Islamic Republic of Iran so that it can play an effective and effective geopolitical role in the years to come. In this paper, the case study of geopolitical factors affecting Iran s foreign policy and its implications in international policy with regard to the formation of the new Silk Road has been examined and finally explained by its conceptual model.
