This research tries to investigate the conceptual context of the foreign policy of the 13th government by using the theoretical framework of cognitive linguistics and the " Pragglejaz" method. The most fundamental strategy of the 13th government's foreign policy is justice-oriented order and solving international issues based on order and justice. Obstacles in reaching this goal may slow down or stop the desired path. The understanding of this path can be represented and understood in the speeches and context of the government. The main question is, what conceptual metaphors has the 13th government used in the discourse of justice-oriented order? The hypothesis is that the "path" metaphor is the most frequent concept in the discourse of Mr. Raisi's government. The findings show that unfair relations, injustice, and discrimination due to the "mind" and the "global capitalist system" centered on the United States prevent the achievement of this path; This obstacle can be rebuilt by creating a "jihadi transformation". The results show that language expressions and mental space in the foreign policy apparatus are structures that create "meaning" between the "addressee" and "others" through direct correlation with events.
