Iran Nuclear Deal: Iran said on Tuesday it had given a “written response” to the final draft prepared to restore its nuclear deal with world powers. Iran’s state-run news agency IRNA did not give any details about the reaction, but indicated that Iran would still not accept the offer of EU mediation, warning it not to proceed with the talks. Is. According to the ‘IRNA’ news, ‘There are disputes over three issues, the US has given verbal assurances of showing flexibility in two of these matters, but it should also be given in writing. The third issue relates to the guarantee of continuity (of the agreement), which depends on US realism.
Iran, led by President Ibrahim Raisi, has repeatedly tried to blame the US for delays in reaching an agreement. It was said that Iran was asked to respond by Monday. The European Union did not immediately confirm Iran’s response. Meanwhile, US State Department spokesman Ned Price said the US would share its response with the European Union. “However, we (of the European Union) agree on this fundamental point, and that is that what can be negotiated has been negotiated,” Price said.
Controversy over Iran’s demand
He said Iran was making “unacceptable demands” beyond the 2015 nuclear deal. Iran signed a nuclear deal in 2015 with the US, France, Germany, Britain, Russia and China. The then US President Donald Trump announced America’s withdrawal from the agreement in 2018. Since then, Iran has once again started expanding its nuclear program. Earlier last month, US President Joe Biden said in this case that the US will not “wait forever” for Iran for a derailed nuclear deal.
America talked about the use of force
Biden had said that he would like to keep the use of force on Iran as a last resort if necessary. He told a news conference after talks with Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid that the US has prepared a way for the Iranian leadership to return to the nuclear deal and is now awaiting an answer. He said, ‘We don’t know when he will come. But we can’t wait forever.’ The US president said his patience with Iran was running out, although he expressed hope that Iran could be persuaded to accept the deal.
Differences in the views of Lapid and Biden
“I believe that diplomacy is the best way to reach this conclusion,” he said. Biden’s course of diplomacy does not appear to coincide with the views of Lapid, who said that Iran should be shown the fear of force to abandon its nuclear ambitions. “The Iranian regime should know that they will pay a heavy price if they continue to deceive the world,” Lapid told reporters. The only way to stop them is to show them the fear of the army. Lapid, despite his tough stance, said he and Biden are in agreement. “We cannot allow Iran to become a nuclear power,” he said.
