A former Iranian ambassador to the UK has emphasised the sensitivity of present negotiations between Iran and Europe, stating that Europe is reluctant to align itself with the U.S. president’s agenda towards Iran.
Seyyed Jalal Sadatian advised IRNA that Europe seems unwilling to activate the snapback mechanism, which might reinstate UN sanctions on Tehran. As an alternative, Europe has positioned three key points on the negotiation desk: Iran’s nuclear program, regional insurance policies, and missile capabilities.
He stated whereas Donald Trump has expressed his willingness to barter with Iran, the character of direct talks between Iran and Europe differs considerably from Trump’s imaginative and prescient. Iran maintains that the Joint Complete Plan of Motion (JCPOA) stays intact, serving because the framework for any discussions.
Sadatian famous that stories counsel that European leaders have accepted this stance, recognizing that the U.S. is now not a JCPOA member and, due to this fact, presently unable to have interaction in direct negotiations with Iran.
He added: “This dynamic highlights the complexities of ongoing diplomatic efforts, as Europe seeks to navigate a balanced path amid competing pressures from Washington and Tehran.”
