WASHINGTON, 17 August 2022, (TON): The European Union and United States said “they were studying Iran’s response to what the EU has called its final proposal to save a 2015 nuclear deal after Tehran called on Washington to show flexibility.”
A US State Department spokesperson said the United States was sharing its views on Iran’s response with the European Union after receiving Tehran’s comments from the bloc.
An EU spokesperson told reporters in Brussels “for the moment, we are studying it and we are consulting with the other JCPOA participants and the US on the way forward.”
She declined to give a time frame for any reaction from the EU.
After 16 months of fitful, indirect US-Iranian talks, with the EU shuttling between the parties, a senior EU official said on Aug. 8 the bloc had laid down a final offer and expected a response within a very, very few weeks.
