Negotiations resume today in Vienna to try to save the 2015 nuclear deal, after five months of hiatus due to the change of administration in Tehran. Iranians and Americans will not speak to each other directly because Washington unilaterally exited the agreement in 2018, but Europeans, Russians and Chinese will mediate.
Iran comes to the negotiations with a large delegation made up more of economics than nuclear experts, an expression of the new negotiating line of Ali Bagheri Kani, deputy foreign minister and head of delegation, a conservative who has always been critical of the JCPOA, who is “removing sanctions” before he can talk about “mutual compliance“, mutual respect for the terms of the agreement.
