Welcome to Spotlight, Iranian host Behrouz Nadjafi. Tehran says we'll go back to full compliance with the deal as soon as the US sanctions are lifted effectively and verifiably. Meantime, the European Union's coordinator says that he feels a renewed sense of purpose among the delegations to reach an agreement. Iran's top negotiator stresses that this country will continue to engage in the talks seriously.Īli Bagheri-Kani has asserted Tehran's determination to reach a good deal that will secure the rights and interests of the Iranian nation. At the core of the talks are two draft proposals presented by Tehran on the removal of sanctions and its nuclear commitments. Host (Behrouz Nadjafi) : Representatives from Iran and remaining parties to the 2015 nuclear agreement have resumed negotiations in Vienna.
Here is a transcription of the latest episode of the Spotlight. Iran has repeatedly said that it seeks the removal of all sanctions in a verifiable manner as well as a guarantee from Washington that it will not leave the deal again. The Islamic Republic’s nuclear steps prompted other signatories to enter talks earlier this year. Iran remained patient for an entire year, after which it began to take incremental steps away from its nuclear obligations due to the other parties’ proven failure to secure its contractual interests. In 2018, however, the US exited the nuclear pact and began to unilaterally implement what it called a maximum pressure campaign against the Islamic Republic, effectively depriving Iran of the deal’s benefits by forcing third parties to stop doing business with Iran. Under the deal, Tehran agreed to put limits on certain aspects of its nuclear activities in exchange for the removal of international sanctions imposed against the country. The JCPOA was inked by Iran and six world powers in 2015. “Iran has no reason to trust the United States,” former UN weapons inspector Scott Ritter told Press TV’s Spotlight on Thursday, commenting on Iran’s demand for guarantee from Washington that it will not leave the deal again. A former UN weapons inspector says Iran has no reason to trust the United States after it quit the landmark 2015 nuclear agreement.
