HISTORY: Iran said this week it sees no point in reviving a 2015 nuclear deal without guaranteeing that the United States will abandon it again.
Tehran also has U. N. inspectors to avoid investigations into the country’s atomic program.
But one U. S. official is “unreasonable. “
Addressing the UN General Assembly earlier this week, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi said his demands were beyond experience.
“The promise factor is not just for anything that may happen, we are based on lived experience, we are talking about the experience of America having come out of the JCPOA. . . “
Under the 2015 deal, Tehran agreed to scale back its nuclear program to ease economic sanctions from the United States, Europe and the UN.
But in 2018, then in the United States, President Donald Trump abandoned the deal, saying he was too lenient on Iran.
The crippling sanctions have returned.
Tehran has begun violating restrictions and replenishing stockpiles of enriched uranium.
There have been months of oblique talks between the current U. S. administration and the current administration. The U. S. and Iran need the U. S. and Iran, but Tehran needs Washington to make sure no president abandons the deal.
Joe Biden can’t do that because the deal is a political deal. . . not a legally binding treaty.
The Islamic Republic and the International Atomic Energy Agency, or IAEA, abandoned their years-long investigations into unexplained uranium lines discovered at 3 undeclared sites in Iran.
On Wednesday, IAEA leader Rafael Grossi said he hoped to speak with Iranian officials about the investigation. . .
“I have shown our Iranian counterparts that we are in a position to re-engage. These things are not going to happen, they are there and we want to explain them. . . “
Raisi and the French president met this week.
When it comes to reaching a deal, Emmanuel Macron has described the ball as being in Tehran’s court.
