Iran Press/ Iran news: The eighth round of talks on the removal of anti-Iranian sanctions resumed on Dec. 27 in the Austrian capital of Vienna. Representatives from China, France, Germany, Russia, Britain, and Iran negotiate in Vienna to bring the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) on track.
Since the United States had withdrawn from the agreement, Iran decided that its representatives would not be present at the talks and that Iran's agreement with the other JCPOA signatories would be transferred to them through an intermediary so, the United States is involved in the negotiations indirectly.
The US State Department is waiving sanctions on Iran's civilian nuclear program in a technical step necessary to return to the 2015 nuclear agreement, a senior official said Friday.
The resumption of the waiver, ended by the Donald Trump administration in 2020, would be essential to ensuring Iran's swift compliance if a new deal on controlling Tehran's nuclear program can be reached in talks in Vienna, the State Department official said.
"Iran's legal right to continue research and development and to maintain its peaceful nuclear capabilities and achievements, along with its security against supported evils, cannot be restricted by any agreement at the same time," Shamkhani tweets.
