Iran to negotiate with world powers to keep nuclear deal in place

Iran seeks ‘clear future design’ for imperilled nuclear deal  Aljazeera, 14 May 18   FM says Tehran is ‘ready for all options’ as he embarks on tour with pact’s other signatories in wake of US withdrawal. 

Iran’s foreign minister has held talks in China as he began a diplomatic tour with the remaining signatories of a multinational nuclear deal following the recent US withdrawal from the landmark 2015 pact.

Speaking on Sunday in Beijing, Mohammad Javad Zarif underlined Tehran’s readiness “for all options” but expressed optimism that this round of negotiations could save the 2015 deal.

“We hope that with this visit to China and other countries we will be able to construct a clear future design for the comprehensive agreement,” Zarif said, speaking alongside his Chinese counterpart, Wang Yi.

“[But] if the nuclear deal is to continue, the interests of the people of Iran must be assured.”

Earlier on Sunday, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said Iran would remain committed to the deal “if the remaining five countries abide by the agreement”.

Diplomatic tour

After the Chinese capital, Zarif will attend talks in Moscow and Brussels with representatives of the pact’s other signatories.

Under the deal signed in Vienna with six world powers – China, France, Russia, the UK, the US, Germany, and the European Union – Iran scaled back its uranium enrichment programme and promised not to pursue nuclear weapons in exchange for the lifting of economic sanctions.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has repeatedly confirmed that Tehran has been meeting its nuclear commitments fully………https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2018/05/iran-seeks-clear-future-design-imperilled-nuclear-deal-180513135916279.html

  1. Israel is now stating it’s intention to use nuclear weapons in Iran.

    Everyone knows zionist bankers like the Rothschilds are heavily involved in the federal reserves. It is not a conspiracy theory, it is fact

    Are any of you #MAGA fanatics wondering why a President who promised you he’d craft polices to put “America First” is now, instead, directly involving the US in Middle East violence in order to advance the interests of a foreign government and to serve radical religious dogmas?

    Big day for Israel. Congratulations!
