IRAN NUCLEAR DEAL: Iran inches closer to nuclear deal as Western officials suggest progress made at reviving 2015 accord with world powers

Iran’s foreign minister said on Friday he was prepared to go to Vienna “immediately” to sign a deal with the US to revive the 2015 nuclear accord, but warned he would only do so if western negotiators agreed to meet Tehran’s outstanding demands.

The comments from Hossein Amirabdollahian came as western officials suggested they were inching closer to securing an agreement at indirect talks between Tehran and the Biden administration in the Austrian capital. But they are also pressuring Iran to quickly agree on final issues after 11 months of negotiations to save the accord abandoned by then US president Donald Trump.

“We are ready to finalise a good agreement immediately . . . but the western parties’ rush to conclude a deal cannot prevent Iran’s red lines from being observed,”

Amirabdollahian told the EU, according to Iran’s foreign ministry. “I am ready to go to Vienna as soon as western parties accept to observe our remaining red lines.”

The deal’s signatories also include Germany, France, UK, Russia and China. Western officials have been warning for weeks that time is running out to save the deal because of the scale of Iran’s nuclear advances, with the Islamic republic enriching uranium close to weapons-grade. But Tehran has insisted it will not seal an agreement at any cost and will not be rushed.

A US state department spokesperson said on Thursday that there had been “significant progress” at the talks, adding that “if Iran shows seriousness, we can and should reach an understanding of mutual return to full implementation” of the accord “within days”.

But she warned that “a number of difficult issues still remain unsolved”. Stephanie al-Qaq, a senior British diplomat at the talks, said on Friday “we are close” to a deal, adding that European officials were briefly leaving Vienna to update their ministers.

Rafael Grossi, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, was scheduled to be in Tehran on Saturday to discuss one of the points holding up progress at the talks: a dispute over a stalled probe by the UN’s nuclear watchdog into traces of uranium found at old, undeclared sites.

Tehran wants the probe concluded, but Grossi said this week that “people cannot foresee a return” to the nuclear accord if there were unresolved issues with the IAEA.

Other key sticking points include Tehran’s demands that the Biden administration provide guarantees that no future US president can unilaterally abandon the deal. The crisis was triggered when Trump withdrew the US from the accord in 2018 and imposed hundreds of sanctions on the Islamic republic.

Diplomats and analysts say it is virtually impossible for President Joe Biden to offer the guarantees that Tehran is seeking, but negotiators have been working on some sort of assurances.

There is also disagreement over which US sanctions would be lifted if Iran reverses its nuclear activity to agreed limits. Tehran wants all Trump-era sanctions lifted, including those related to alleged human rights abuses, regional activities and terrorism allegations, not just economic measures.

Trump imposed sanctions on dozens of senior Iranian officials, including President Ebrahim Raisi before he came to power last year, and the office of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the supreme leader. He also designated the elite Revolutionary Guard a terrorist organisation.

If a deal is secured, Iran would be able to ramp up its oil exports as the Russian invasion of Ukraine has pushed crude prices to decade-long highs, with prices above $100 a barrel.

Iran is estimated to be exporting about 1mn barrels of crude a day, but Javad Owji, the oil minister, was quoted this week as saying the Islamic republic could reach its “maximum oil production capacity in less than two months” if sanctions are lifted. Iran’s oil exports hit a peak of about 2.5mn barrels a day before Trump abandoned the nuclear accord.

But analysts said the risk was that the Ukraine crisis and soaring energy prices could lead Tehran into believing that its position at the negotiating table had strengthened.

Stupid USA They are now begging Iran to halt their plans of building Nuclear weapons. If this was 10 years ago, they would've been threatening Iran with sanctions, and not trying to reason or dialogue with them.
But since Trump had meted all the sanctions he and all foolish Americans could think of on iran, including cutting them from SWIFT, they no longer have any leverage over Iran. The only thing they can actually do to stop Iran from building Nukes is to invade them or dialogue with them. NOTE: Iran before being slapped with sanctions by the west NEVER contemplated anything about building Nukes. After the sanctions, their economy survived, they now started their nuke program, angering the west. But the west can't really do much anymore since they've unleashed all the sanctions in their arsenal on them.

Imagine you're in your father's house. You're a party lover. But each time you want to go to a party, maybe at a club, your father Threatens you that if you do, he will take the phone he bought for you, all the clothes, kick you away from his house (disowning you).

One day, you go to a party, hoping he wouldn't find out. You happened to be wrong. He got to know, somehow, and carried out all the threats he's been making. He took away all the things he bought for you and kicked you away.
You sufferred but somehow survived with the help of a friend. You now own your own house.

If let's say one day, a friend of yours invites you to a party, would you say..... "I will not go because my dad threatened me before that he'll kick me out of his house the moment he sees you in any party?" The answer is no. Your dad carried out all his threats on you already. He no longer has any leverage over you anymore. If someday he even sees you coming out of a night club, I doubt if he'll be able to do anything since there's nothing he can do to you again. We'll why I'm I saying this?

Boris Johnson while speaking for the west, immediately after Russia invaded Ukraine, bragged openly that they will cripple the economy of the Russian federation. They are trying their best now to make it happen. But the thing is, If Russia actually manages to survive this colossal sanctions that the west AKA the U.S. and lapdog have meted on her which I know they will with the help of china, THEN IT IS FINISHED!
The west will no longer have any leverage on Russia. They will have nothing that they will be able to use to threaten russia again if russia decides to do anything that is severely against their interest.
The west seem to be enjoying sanctioning russia now, I hope they don't end up regretting it in the future when the bear comes for their coconut heads. Bunch of murthafuckers

Israel will never agree lmao

All for nothing but ...

I like Joe Biden's foreign policy

* If Iran as an independent country wants a Nuclear program, Isreal and US has no right to stop them especially when both countries also have Nuclear warhead

* If Taliban wants to Govern Afghanistan, US can't force Democracy on them, so troops got withdrawn

* If Ukraine wants to join NATO and EU against Russia's National security risk then they are free, and If Russia chooses to invade,US military forces won't get involved




..

. US be like .......

Good

I don't care, it has nothing to do with me

I laugh

I hope Putin doesn't hear this on RT.....

...he may have to 'nuke' Irans 'nukes' to be safe?

Democrats are terrible with foreign policy.
They already started a conflict in Eastern Europe and want to start a fresh one in the middle east. Israel is your biggest ally in the middle east but you empower her arch enemy and still want her to join you against Russia (who she needs to defend her Syrian border)

No wonder Israel has stayed neutral in the Ukrainian conflict.

Israel PM says they will Not let Iran get a Nuke under any Circumstances. Israel will be Forced to act.

Bible Prophecies are warming up to unfold right in Front of our eyes.
Isaiah 17:1,14 where Damascus will be Destroyed in a single Night.

.

In this Prophecy , Jeremiah says Iran will suffer the fate of a broken bow. Which could imply that Iran Revolutionary guard will be unable to launch scores of its Missiles at its Enemies.

Additionally, Jeremiah declared that Iran will be struck at the Foremost place of its Might, which Today could infer an attack on its Nuclear Program.

One of the Most strategic and Vulnerable Nuclear target today is the " Busher Nuclear reactor" located in the Heart of ancient Elam.

We are residing right in Biblical Prophecies.The Signs of the times are Everywhere! Let no one Confuse or Distract or Deceive you! These are Endtimes!
The Coming of JESUS is NEARHERE! The RAPTURE can Happen anymoment!

Enough of the false alarm.

Furthermore, Paul wrote something in

2 Thessalonians 2 v 1-4;

1.Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers and sisters,

2 not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us—whether by a prophecy or by word of mouth or by letter—asserting that the day of the Lord has already come.

3 Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for THAT DAY WILL NOT COME UNTIL the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction.

4 He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up IN GOD’S TEMPLE, proclaiming himself to be God.



1. Bear in mind there will be a temple of God where this man of lawlessness will proclaim himself to be God. Please where is this temple today? It doesn’t exist. It’s yet to be constructed!

2. Apostle Paul mentioned we should not be alarmed or unsettled. No one should deceive anyone about the coming of the Lord. It cannot happen until the lawless one is revealed and the temple (which is yet to be constructed) is desecrated and the abomination that causes desolation is set up inside the temple.


Righteousness2, enough of these false alarms.

Other scriptural references to ponder on;
Matthew 24 v 4-8;
4 Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you.

5 For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and will deceive many.

6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.

7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

8 All these are the beginning of birth pains.

Yes.. cuz without a class captain... A class will be in disarray

Iran is one of the most peaceful country in the world but I'll advise them to go ahead and build a bomb as well as continue any peace negotiations. That's what the West would've done if in Iran's shoes.

Nothing should stop you from building massive bombs "to deter aggression" which is the excuse Western nations give for building bombs.

The only reason no Western nation has showed up in Russia yet is because Russia has a bomb.

Israel will never agree

Some good news finally. As long as Iran will not enrich to weapon grade and close monitoring channels are opened by the IAEA, it’s all good. Nuclear tech can be used for many civilian techs from medicine to research to power generation.
