Staying away from signing the agreement? The Persian “Eco-Iran” news agency reported this evening (Monday) that the Islamic Republic will submit its comments by tonight to the European Union’s latest proposal regarding the revival of the 2015 nuclear agreement. According to the report, Iran’s Foreign Minister, Hossein Amir Abdulkhiansaid that “We are at the beginning of the end of the agreement. Our point of view is that the red lines and our rights in this agreement must be respected.”
In the meantime, the spokesperson of the US State Department, Ned Pricesent a harsh message in the direction of Iran and stated: “If Iran does not accept the return to the nuclear agreement, we are ready to continue the course of sanctions. In any case, the US will not remove the sanctions that were not put on the table as part of the negotiations with Iran.”
At the same time, the Iranian Foreign Minister added that “we will announce our final opinion, and if our expectations are fulfilled, we are ready to enter the final stage of the agreement and announce it in the presence of the foreign delegations. The American side recently showed flexibility on two issues, but only orally and not in writing. It is important to us That the issue of the guarantees will stand before American eyes.”
Spokesman for Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Canaanite bannedsaid at a press conference that “relative progress has been made in the negotiations with the powers in Vienna. However, this progress does not satisfy the full legal requirements of Iran. We have other expectations from the other side, and we believe that all of Iran’s interests should be guaranteed. Additional discussions are underway and there are We have comments for Borel’s final plan.”
Later, Kanani said that “we are close to an agreement, but on the condition that they respect the red lines of Iran and the fundamental interests of the Islamic Republic. There is a mutual agreement, but it is not possible for one side to be committed to the agreement and fulfill its obligations, and the other side will continue to refuse.”
As you may recall, last week, the Iranian Foreign Minister said that “the success of the talks between the US and Iran depends on the flexibility of the Americans. The foreign minister also appealed to the UN’s “watchdog” in the nuclear field and called for solving the remaining technical problems regarding Iran’s nuclear activities, and to stay away from non-productive political issues. This, after the start of the indirect talks between the US and Iran, in order to renew the nuclear agreement from 2015 between Iran and the powers. The goal, as it has been for months, is to restore the agreement that caused Iran to limit its “nuclear ambitions” in exchange for sanctions relief.
