Iranian FM: Nuclear agreement within reach if US side 'realistic'
Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian stated that if the Americans dealt "realistically" in the final round of negotiations in Vienna, the two parties would have been "closer to an agreement than ever."
In an interview for the Croatian newspaper Večernji list, Amir-Abdollahian underlined that the Americans raised new issues to add an appendix on the possibility of re-imposing non-nuclear sanctions.
After eight rounds of negotiations to return the JCPOA to its original form and bring the US back into the accord owing to external considerations, a pause was taken in Vienna on March 11, 2022. The Vienna negotiations had already neared their conclusion and were anticipated to be finished by the end of February prior to that.
The wording of the agreements achieved, which is roughly 20 pages long and outlines additional procedures to resume the nuclear accord in its original form, was agreed upon.
Earlier today, Amir-Abdollahian reiterated his hope for the resumption of the nuclear negotiations in the near future.
During a joint press conference with Sergey Lavrov, Russia's Foreign Minister, said, “I hope we could reach the final point of an agreement in the near future with the American party’s realism.”
When asked about the Iranian-Saudi relationship during his interview with the Croatian newspaper Večernji list, Amir-Abdollahian said that an agreement with Saudi Arabia has been reached to exchange logistic teams prior to visits to each nation’s embassies.
