Iran: US waiving sanctions on Tehran’s civil atomic program is ‘good but not enough’

Israel’s response is here.
[IsraelTimes] Iranian foreign minister wants to see something ’tangible’ from the Americans after Biden administration, the guys that caused the debacle in Afghanistan

restored some sanctions relief is aimed at salvaging nuclear deal


Iran’s foreign minister on Saturday welcomed US sanctions relief intended to entice Tehran back to the 2015 nuclear deal, but said the move was "insufficient."

On Friday, the Biden administration restored some sanctions relief to Iran’s civilian atomic program as world powers and the Islamic Theocratic Republic continue talks aimed at salvaging the languishing agreement.

"Lifting some sanctions in a real and objective manner could be interpreted as the good will that Americans talk about," Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian told news hounds on Saturday.

However,
a good lie finds more believers than a bad truth...
he said the move "is not enough."

"Good will, in our viewpoint, means that something tangible happens on the ground," Amir-Abdollahian said.

Amir-Abdollahian reiterated that one of the "main issues" in the talks is obtaining guarantees that the US will not withdraw from the 2015 deal again.

"We seek and demand guarantees in the political, legal and economic sectors," he said, adding that "agreements have been reached in some areas."

Foreign Ministry front man Saeed Khatibzadeh also called the US sanctions relief insufficient, saying Tehran expects the lifting of sanctions outlined under the nuclear deal.

"Everyone knows that is not sufficient," Khatibzadeh was quoted as saying by the Iranian Jamaran news website.

"Indeed, the Islamic Theocratic Republic of Iran
...The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both...
is waiting for the US to implement its duties and commitments according to the nuclear deal dimensions," he said.

The Biden administration on Friday restored some sanctions relief to Iran’s atomic program as talks aimed at salvaging the languishing 2015 nuclear deal enter a critical phase.

As US negotiators head back to Vienna for what could be a make-or-break session, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken signed several sanctions waivers related to Iran’s civilian nuclear activities. The move reverses the Trump administration’s decision to rescind them.

The waivers are intended to entice Iran to return to compliance with the 2015 deal that it has been publicly violating since former US president Donald Trump
...His ancestors didn't own any slaves...
withdrew from the agreement in 2018 and re-imposed sanctions. Iran says it is not respecting the terms of the deal because the US pulled out of it first. Iran has demanded the restoration of all sanctions relief it was promised under the deal to return to compliance.

Friday’s move lifts the sanctions threat against foreign countries and companies from Russia, China and Europa
...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum...
that had been cooperating with non-military parts of Iran’s nuclear program under the terms of the 2015 deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA.

The Trump administration had ended the so-called "civ-nuke" waivers in May 2020 as part of its "maximum pressure" campaign against Iran that began when Trump withdrew the US from the deal in 2018, complaining that it was the worst diplomatic agreement ever negotiated and gave Iran a pathway to developing the bomb.

#4  ValJar and the Kalorama Kompound delivering while they still have the current set of puppets in place. There is a looming end to how much and for how long you can juice Jojo for any semblance of public performance. Once his husk is pushed aside, probably before the end of summer, the Cackle-Jackal will bring a new and more aware set of players to the stage, and the modus vivendi terms will be vastly different. He greatest traits have been patience, obdurate shamelessness and massive, ego-driven ambition. She is an inept, lazy, and vain clown as an administrator, but is a nasty ruler with a very long memory of slights.

#1  Can't believe Biden is giving Iran all they want and not even asking for anything in return.
