        The fresh water in the earth's surface forms only three percent of the total population. The difficulty of the situation becomes apparent when it comes to the unequal distribution of water in different areas, and the increasing population growth and the increasing consumption of water in various fields have led to the emergence of sensitive conditions. Which many economists from the 21st century called the Hydropolitan Century. Therefore, in the relations of political units in areas where rainfall is low, water will create future tensions. The purpose of this research is descriptive-analytical study of the effect of hydro-polytechnic of the Hirmand River on the national security of the Islamic Republic of Iran. We seek to answer this question. What impact of the hydropolitic of the Hirmand River on the national security of the Islamic Republic of Iran? It seems that Hirmand hydro-politics in various aspects of political, military, economic, cultural and especially environmental affects the national security of the Islamic Republic of Iran and cooperation in the Hirmand joint area requires attention to the approach to environmental security and the search for solutions for joint cooperation Within the framework of this approach.

        In the present era and especially in recent decades, water is considered as an important strategic factor in the foreign and security policy of governments and nations. In such a situation, fresh water as a non-renewable and non-reproducible resource brings this competition to a high level of foreign policy, this factor has become a serious crisis and tension between countries in the border rivers. The country of Turkmenistan, whose land consists of the Qaraqom desert, has obtained its water needs from common and transboundary waters in different eras. The strong need of the two countries for the water of Atrak River in the two periods before and after the collapse of the Soviet Union has always been one of the controversial issues of the two countries. Based on the descriptive-analytical method, this research tries to answer the question, what are the political-security challenges of Iran and Turkmenistan regarding the joint exploitation of Atrak and its hydropolitics? The findings of the research indicate that the Islamic Republic of Iran's sovereign diplomacy regarding Atrak in the two periods before and after the collapse of the Soviet Union was tolerance, tolerance and avoidance of tension, and this caused the bold and greater productivity of Turkmenistan. Turkey has become outside the rules of international law. Based on this, Iran should take a new approach towards the Turkish hydropolitics and the two countries should turn the imminent and possible conflicts into cooperation and development by providing appropriate solutions.
