JCPOA - صفحه 3

European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said Monday night that the diplomatic window on Iran’s nuclear issue remains open.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stressed that the Islamic Republic is committed to resolving outstanding issues, including the nuclear file, through dialogue and diplomatic channels. He also urged international organizations, especially the United Nations, to take stronger and more practical action against the crimes and provocations of the Zionist regime in the region.

By Homayoun Barkhor | English Desk Editor & Foreign Policy Analyst, Borna News Agency: Rafael Grossi, the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), has increasingly come under scrutiny for adopting political positions that critics say compromise the Agency’s neutrality. Observers argue that his repeated alignment with Western narratives on Iran’s nuclear program not only undermines the IAEA’s technical mandate but also reflects his broader ambitions to secure Western backing for a future bid to become UN Secretary-General.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says a decision by the European troika to unleash the snapback mechanism of sanctions on Iran will turn the E3 into a permanently spent force.

A report published in the media has ruled out the cataclysmic scenarios envisioned for the Iranian economy after a potential return of the United Nations sanctions, a process known as the snapback that European parties to a 2015 deal on Iran’s nuclear program have vowed to trigger if the country fails to accept their demands.

The U.S. State Department announced late Wednesday that Secretary of State Marco Rubio held consultations with his European counterparts from France, Germany, and the United Kingdom on developments regarding Iran.

The record of Tehran–Europe relations over the past four decades has followed a cyclical path, oscillating between confrontation and engagement.

Russia has confirmed circulating a draft proposal at the UN Security Council aimed at averting activation of the so-called “snapback” mechanism that would restore the council’s sanctions against Iran.

Senior Iranian diplomat Kazem Gharibabadi, Deputy Foreign Minister for Legal and International Affairs, has called on the three European parties to the JCPOA and the UN Security Council to make the right choice and give diplomacy “time and space.”

Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Esmail Baghaei announced on Tuesday that Iran is currently reviewing a draft resolution proposed by Russia regarding the extension of United Nations Security Council Resolution 2231.

A senior Russian diplomat says the European troika—Britain, France, and Germany—lack a clear strategy to break the “deadlock” they are poised to create if they follow through on their threat to invoke the “snapback” mechanism against Iran.

Iran and Russia have underlined lack of all legal and moral authority on the part of the European trio of the UK, France, and Germany to try to have the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) reinstate its sanctions against the Islamic Republic.

China’s mission to the United Nations has declared the country’s firm opposition to threats by European parties to the 2015 nuclear deal to activate the "snapback" mechanism within the framework of UN Security Council Resolution 2231.

Iran’s foreign minister has warned the European parties to the 2015 nuclear deal that invoking the so-called snapback mechanism would be illegal, but that Tehran has prepared a response to potential attempts to restore the UN sanctions against the country.

A senior Iranian diplomat says the Islamic Republic is ready to continue nuclear talks with the European troika and to defend its peaceful nuclear rights.

China reaffirms its commitment to the peaceful resolution of Iran's nuclear issue and opposes the invocation of the UN Security Council's "snapback" mechanism.

In a new act of interference, France, Germany and UK repeated their claims against Iran's nuclear deal and threatened to reimpose illegal sanctions against the country's peaceful nuclear program.

A deputy Iranian foreign minister has said European E3 including UK, France and Germany do not have the right to activate the snapback mechanism.

President Masoud Pezeshkian emphasized that the Islamic Republic of Iran, as it has previously accepted the most rigorous oversight regime over its nuclear activities, is once again ready for engagement and cooperation in this domain. He added, however, that this readiness does not imply a retreat from the Iranian nation’s rights. “We are ready to engage in dialogue and do not seek war, but any repeated act of aggression will be met with a resolute response,” he stated.

Iran’s Oil Minister Mohsen Paknejad says the country has been planning for a potential scenario in which the United Nations sanctions are re-imposed on the country as part of efforts by European powers to force Tehran to change its nuclear policy.
