JEDDAH, 06 July 2022, (TON): US special envoy Robert Malley said “Iran has made alarming progress on enriching uranium and is hampering talks on a revived nuclear deal by making a series of unrelated demands.”
Negotiations in Vienna aimed at salvaging the collapsed 2015 agreement have been stalled since March, and talks in Qatar last week to break the impasse ended in failure.
Malley said “Tehran added demands that I think anyone looking at this would view as having nothing to do with the nuclear deal, things that they’ve wanted in the past.”
“The discussion that really needs to take place right now is not so much between us and Iran, although we’re prepared to have that. It’s between Iran and itself. They need to come to a conclusion about whether they are now prepared to come back into compliance with the deal.”
