Meanwhile, Middle East Eye wrote: "Talks in Vienna aimed at restoring the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran have been put on hold after the U.S. announced it had seized the oil cargo of two Iranian ships which it claimed were breaking sanctions."
Iran's international nuclear agreement or the so-called Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) was signed between the country and P5+1 countries (Russia, China, UK, Germany, France, and the U.S.) in 2015, but the U.S. scrapped it on May 18, 2018, re-imposing more sanctions on Iran.
The eighth round of sanctions talks began in Vienna on December 27 in Vienna, after a short break, between Iran and the P4+1 group, this time without the U.S. as a party.
