First meeting between the United States and Iran on the nuclear agreement at the United Nations

September 15, 2017 at the Media Center  on the first anticipated meeting between the United States and Iran on the UN nuclear agreement

US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson is expected to meet next week at the United Nations for his first meeting on the nuclear deal with his Iranian counterpart Mohammad Jawad Zarif and other parties involved in the deal, diplomats said on Thursday.

The meeting next Wednesday with Iran and the six major powers - China, France, Germany, Russia and the United States - comes as US President Donald Trump is considering a possible withdrawal from the historic 2015 agreement.

EU Foreign Minister Federica Mugherini will chair the talks on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly, diplomats said.

Iranian President Hassan Rowhani is expected to address the fate of the accord in his speech Wednesday at the United Nations, a day after Trump delivered his first address to the 193-nation assembly.

On Thursday, Washington announced new sanctions against Iran targeting 11 entities and individuals supporting the Revolutionary Guards or involved in information attacks on the US financial system.

Trump is scheduled to decide on October 15 whether Iran has broken the 2015 nuclear deal and its opponents fear it could abandon an agreement it believes is preventing Tehran from making a nuclear bomb.

Under the nuclear deal, Iran handed over a lot of enriched uranium, dismantled a reactor and opened nuclear facilities to UN inspectors in exchange for the United States and Europe lifting some of the sanctions imposed on it.

During a visit to Washington in July, Zarif complained that he had to re-discuss the agreement with Tilerson and that the administration was sending "contradictory signals" about the fate of the deal.

"There is no contact between me and Tilerson," Zarif said. "That does not mean there will be no contacts. The possibilities of meeting were always open. "

Iran "not going to be in charge" in post-IS situation in Syria, Iraq - Haley

16/09/2017 | LOC00:21 21:21 GMT | Arab News

WASHINGTON, Sept 15 (KUNA) -- While US efforts in Syria and Iraq against the so-called Islamic State (IS) have been "remarkable," US Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley on Friday predicted that Iran "is not going to be in charge" in a post-IS situation there. "To see how we have really bulldozed through ISIS in the way that we have shown how strong the US has been in partnership with them (US allies in Syria and Iraq)," Haley said, referring to IS. "But I think we're also looking at post-ISIS. What does that look like? And I can tell you, Iran is not going to be in charge, and Iran is not going to have any sort of leadership in that situation to where they can do more harm." Syria is "always going to be a topic," she said during a briefing at the White House to preview the US agenda at the UN General Assembly next week in New York City. "I think we continue to be strong in making sure there's no chemical weapons and making sure that we're looking at the humanitarian situation. But the US is a very strong partner in the resolution for Syria and will continue to be until we know that everything's stable." "I think we're not going to be satisfied until we see a solid and stable Syria, and that is not with Assad in place," she said, referring to Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad. "But what we are going to do is continue to be very effective and be a part of that process so that we get to a resolution."

Thanks Yota...After Iraq is released from Chapter VII by the UN...Chapter 8 in a nutshell is nothing more than basically the Policies and Procedures of the International guidelines on monetary etiquette....Iraq must sign and agree upon Chapter 8 to guarantee the international world that Iraq accepts the conditions of Chapter 8....

 

Isn't the real "8" we are looking for the IMF's Article "8" which would stipulate the international rules and agreements Iraq would adhere to in order the be accepted into the world's financial arena?  The UN deals in security, and the IMF deal with finances.

You are right Carello, they are 2 diff things.

 

What we are looking for is for iraq to accept obligations under IMF article 8. Currently iraq is under IMF article 14.

 

But at the same time, Iraq need to be out of UN Chapter 7, completely, by 'settling' the remaining compensation file to kuwait ( amounting to about 5 billions dollar).
