UK, France, Germany launch Iran sanctions process
The United Kingdom, France and Germany, Israel and the United States of the United States bombing Iran two months after a step to stop tensions on the controversial nuclear program to re -strengthened the sanctions on Iran to re -strengthening the sanctions.
A senior Iranian authority accused three European powers of rapid damage to diplomacy and promised Iran that Iran began to pressure the movement to start the “Snapback mechanism” by E3.
The three countries were afraid that Iran would lose privilege in mid -October to recover the sanctions abolished with the world forces in the 2015 Nuclear Agreement.
French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot said the decision did not point to the end of the diplomacy.
German counterpart Johann Wadephul, Iran now called for completely cooperation with the UN Nuclear watchman agency and to have direct talks with the US next month.
A senior Iranian official said that the decision was “illegal and sad”, but left the door open for participation.
“Movement is an action against diplomacy, not a chance for this. Diplomacy will continue with Europe,” the authority said: “Iran will not accept under pressure.”
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said the decision was “fundamental and illegal”.
Diplomats, the UN Security Council will meet behind the closed doors on Friday at the request of the E3, he said.
Iran and E3 organized a few rounds of meetings, where Israel and the United States bombed their nuclear facilities in mid -June and aim to admit the Snapback mechanism to postpone.
However, on Tuesday, the E3 thought that negotiations in Geneva did not give enough preparation signal for a new agreement from Iran.
On Thursday, the E3 acted on Thursday’s accusations that Iran had violated the 2015 agreement, which aims to prevent the development of nuclear weapons in exchange for the abolition of international sanctions.
E3 was a party to this agreement with Russia, China and the USA.
US President Donald Trump removed his country from this agreement in 2018 in the first period and called the agreement unilaterally in favor of Iran, and resolved in the following years because Iran had left the boundaries on the enrichment of uranium.
Trump’s second administration made indirect negotiations with Iran earlier this year.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio welcomed the E3 movement and said that the US remained appropriate for direct participation with Iran in the progress of a peaceful and lasting decision on the Iranian nuclear issue.
An Iranian source said it would only do if it guaranteed that Washington will not be a strike during the talks. “
The E3 said Iran will interact until the end of September to eliminate concerns about the nuclear agenda to postpone concrete action.
“E3 is determined to use every diplomatic vehicle available to ensure that Iran never develops nuclear weapons”, in a letter sent to the UN Security Council seen by Reuters, including the Snapback mechanism.
“E3’s commitment to a diplomatic solution is still determined.”
Iran said that if the sanctions have been restored and an Iranian authority has reviewed the options, including withdrawal from the non -nuclear prevention treaty.
In the event that Iran has brought back access to the UN Nuclear Inspectors, Iran offered to reach out for six months to take into account the major negotiations with the United States, which will take into account the large enriched uranium stock that has not been known since the June War.
Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar, who inevitably calls the E3 decision, said, “In the diplomatic campaign, it is an important step to resist the Iranian regime’s nuclear ambitions.”
The UN process continues 30 days before the sanctions to restore Iran’s financial, banking, energy and defense sectors.
