Aug. 29 (EUROPA PRESS) –
The president of Iran, Ebrahim Raisi, has indicated this Monday that there is no point in reactivating the nuclear agreement if the investigations of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) on the traces of enriched uranium found in three undeclared places are not concluded.
Iran thus seeks to reactivate the 2015 nuclear agreement, with which it wants to guarantee the civilian nature of its nuclear program. In that sense, Raisi has insisted that they have argued on several occasions that nuclear weapons have no place in their defense policies and has accused Israel of hindering “peaceful nuclear knowledge,” reports the state news agency IRNA.
“The Zionist regime’s threats are going nowhere. The assassination of nuclear scientists also pointed towards this, but we did not stop. No action by the Zionist regime will stop us,” he said.
Iran has announced the withdrawal of its commitments on several of the points of the agreement after the United States left the pact unilaterally in 2018, although the Iranian authorities have defended that these steps can be reversed if the United States withdraws the sanctions and returns to the agreement.
World powers have spent nearly 18 months trying to broker a deal that would restore strict limits on Iran’s nuclear activity in exchange for the United States relaxing some of its sanctions on the Persian republic’s economy, including on its exports of Petroleum.
Last week, Washington welcomed the fact that Iran had left behind some of its “non-initial demands” to once again re-establish a dialogue table on the nuclear issue, including blocking certain IAEA inspections.
