INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
TEHRAN Iranian authorities and groups throughout the political spectrum share the view of Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed
Ali Khamenei, who specified last week that Tehran would engage in talks with all nations other than the United States, According to
Government spokesperson Fatemeh Mohajerani talking to the Tehran Times
When it pertains to prospective settlements with Washington, there definitely is an agreement among authorities in Tehran
The president, cabinet members, parliamentarians, and figures in other governmental organizations all concur that engaging with the United
States is meaningless, just as the Leader recently stated, Mohajerani stated throughout a visit to the Tehran Times building.The
spokesperson described that U.S
President Donald Trumps current actions led officials to this conclusion
president has consistently stated he wishes to strike a deal with Iran
His actions contradict his words
He can not claim to favor diplomacy while at the same time continuing the so-called optimal pressure project
How Trump made Iran eliminate negotiations In his first Iran-related action considering that taking office as president for the 2nd time,
Trump signed a governmental memorandum renewing the optimum pressure campaign
This campaign was at first released in 2018 after Trump withdrew from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), a worldwide agreement
restricting Irans nuclear program in exchange for sanctions removal.Maximum pressure restored sanctions that were to be scrapped under the
JCPOA, magnified existing ones, and imposed new steps
It sent Irans economy into a tailspin and strained the finances of common Iranians, however paradoxically required Tehran to make new
headways in its nuclear program and increase its activities to unprecedented levels.President Joe Biden did not walk back the policies Trump
had actually embraced throughout his very first term regardless of initially assuring to return to the Iran nuclear deal
His Secretary of State Antony Blinken even stated last year that in addition to maintaining the maximum pressure campaign, Biden imposed
numerous new sanctions on Iran.It stays unclear how the brand-new U.S
administrations procedures against Iran will meaningfully vary from those of the past two administrations, as Washington appears to have
actually exhausted its pressure tools against Tehran over the past 4 and half years
Nevertheless, even Trumps largely symbolic memorandum wound up interfering with currency markets in the West Asian nation, an event most
likely to increase inflation, an element Western nations heavily rely on to press the government into submission.In remarks to Fox News,
Trump said he wants a brand-new nuclear handle Iran, including he prefers that to battle the hell out of the country
The offer he wants is most likely comparable to the one the U.S
struck with Libya in 2003, which made the African nation dismantle all its nuclear sites and deliver off a few of the staying nuclear
technologies to the West, according to Israels envoy to Washington
Reports show Trump likewise desires Iran to reduce its rocket program, deliver its long- and medium-range missiles, and sever ties with
Resistance forces throughout West Asia.Mohajeranis remarks to the Tehran Times appeared precise, given President Masoud Pezeshkians stance
throughout a Monday speech at a big rally in Tehran on the 46th anniversary of the Islamic Revolution
Trump keeps saying he desires a deal, Pezeshkian specified
If you desire an offer, then what are these idiotic actions? Do you really think we will trust you like this? Pezeshkians words contrasted
greatly with his campaign rhetoric from the summers presidential race
The former lawmaker and health minister frequently encountered his conservative rival, Saeed Jalili, who is understood among the public for
opposing talks with Americans
Pezeshkian had actually expressed optimism about reaching a contract with the U.S
during telecasted arguments, even designating Irans JCPOA mediator, Mohammad Javad Zarif, as his Vice President for Strategic Affairs, in
spite of legal obstacles surrounding the appointment
However, Trumps intransigence and hostility seem to have actually dampened the interest of even the most flexible Iranian political leaders,
consisting of Pezeshkian.What future holds for IranGiven the low potential customers for sanctions elimination under current situations,
analysts are now recommending the president to pursue tough but positive reforms to reduce the impact of U.S
Pezeshkian himself stated on Monday that he plans to chart a brand-new course with the cooperation of government bodies and the people.To be
truthful, I believe sanctions may remain in place even if we consent to all of Trumps needs and negotiate with him, stated Amir Ali
Abolfath, a professional on North American affairs
President Bashar al-Assad is gone and those in power today are close to both the U.S
However Washington has not yet lifted the sanctions troubled the nation years ago.In the exact same speech where Ayatollah Khamenei
dismissed talks with the U.S., he also kept in mind that even Barack Obama, who signed the JCPOA, failed to promote Washingtons dedications
sanctions that were indicated to be raised stayed in place, the Leader stated.By Mona Hojat Ansari
