In a post on X, former Twitter, on Saturday, Abbas Araghchi said that the “relatively positive atmosphere” characterizing the talks in the Italian capital had resulted in advancement on the foundational aspects of a “possible deal.”
The top diplomat, meanwhile, commented on Iran’s stance on the 2015 nuclear accord between the Islamic Republic and world countries, which is officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
Washington left the deal three years after its conclusion, before returning the illegal and unilateral sanctions that it had lifted as per the agreement, and piling up even more coercive measures on Tehran.
According to PressTV, “We made clear how many in Iran believe that the JCPOA is no longer good enough for us. To them, what is left from that deal are ‘lessons learned.’ Personally, I tend to agree,” Araghchi wrote.
His comments came after Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei criticized the country’s tying its various affairs to the negotiations that led to the JCPOA’s conclusion, advising avoidance of associating national progress with this round of talks.
