khatibzadeh-Iran

Speaking to reporters in a virtual press conference on Monday, Khatibzadeh said Iran has never bowed out of the negotiations.

The spokesman said that Iran is experiencing a democratic transition of power with the administration of President Ebrahim Raisi taking office, and the executive teams involved in the JCPOA talks would change in this process.

Khatibzadeh said President Raisi has made it clear that the anti-Iran sanctions must be lifted, and the termination should take place within the framework of the Iranian people’s interests and in accordance with the instructions.

He also noted that Tehran will stop taking its remedial measures as soon as a solution is achieved for the return of the US to its commitments under the nuclear deal.

He further highlighted the futility of the US policy of maximum pressure on Iran, reminding the White House officials that using the approach of the former US president will not produce any result other than the same failures of recent years.

The US administration must realise that it won’t achieve anything different from the past year’s development with Donald Trump’s mentality, he added.

Khatibzadeh stressed that the US needs to change its mentality and consider the realities on the ground.

“They (Americans) know and we know as well that the (US) policy of maximum pressure has failed, and Iran would not accept anything less than the JCPOA.”

In the Sunday meeting, Zarif touched upon the dire situation in Afghanistan and the growing complexity of the circumstances in the country, dismissing foreign powers’ inappropriate policies as one of the root causes of the current situation in Afghanistan.

He expressed Iran’s readiness to help with and facilitate negotiations among Afghan sides in order to advance the peace process in Afghanistan.

He said intra-Afghan talks are the only solution to the problems facing the country.

“The international community should adopt a straightforward stance to support a political settlement of the crisis in Afghanistan and condemn violence and its consequences,” said Zarif.

The UN envoy, in turn, stressed the importance of the role of Iran and other regional countries in helping move forward with the peace trend in Afghanistan.

He said no country or limited number of countries alone will be able to organize the current situation in Afghanistan, adding only collective cooperation can defuse the situation in the country.

He emphasised intra-Afghan talks as the only way to tackle the current situation in the country, and described his negotiations in Tehran as fruitful and significant.
