Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said today, Tuesday, that his country is ready to return to the commitment of all its obligations under the nuclear agreement after the lifting of economic sanctions.
And the official account of the Iranian Foreign Ministry, via Twitter, quoted Araghchi as saying, during the Tehran Dialogue Forum, "At the moment we will not be restricted to the nuclear agreement, but our program is under the supervision of the International Agency ... We are ready to return to all our obligations after all sanctions are lifted."
Araghchi added that the fifth step to reduce nuclear obligations does not mean that the nuclear agreement has ended, but rather a reasonable balance in the nuclear agreement.

The US Geological Survey said that an earthquake of 4.5 magnitude struck the southwestern region of Iran on Wednesday, January 8, 2020, where the Bushehr nuclear power plant is located.

The earthquake, which reached a depth of 10 km, shook an area 17 km southeast of the city of Brazjan, according to the American Commission website. Residents felt the tremor at Bushehr, where there is a famous nuclear power plant, and no injuries or damage were reported, according to the official IRNA news agency, which quoted the director of the crisis cell in the province, Jahangir Dahkani.

The earthquake comes two weeks after another earthquake of magnitude 5.1 occurred in the same area without any injuries or serious damage.

The Bushehr nuclear reactor, which produces 1,000 megawatts of electricity, was built by Russia after years of delay and was officially delivered to Tehran in September 2013. In 2016, Russian and Iranian companies began building other 1,000 megawatt reactors at Bushehr. Work on both projects is expected to take 10 years.

The information / Baghdad ..
Al-Fateh MP Haneen Al-Qaddo, on Thursday, suggested that Tehran would respond to the invitation of US President Donald Trump to enter into new negotiations on the nuclear file, stating that Iran would put two basic conditions in exchange for its acceptance to negotiate.
In a statement to Al-Maalouma, Al-Kiddo said, "Yesterday's Trump speech contributed to creating an atmosphere of calm after the world was worried about Trump's recklessness by issuing a decision to respond to the Iranian bombing of his bases in Anbar and Erbil, although the speech contained a kind of clear methodology. Noting that "Trump's call for Iran to return to negotiations was to win the American people because of the proximity of the American elections."
He added that "indications indicate that Tehran will agree to enter into new negotiations on its nuclear program with Washington, but it will lay down two basic conditions, the lifting of the blockade of it and the second that its acceptance will be with European guarantees."
Al-Kiddu indicated that "if Tehran accepts to enter into new negotiations with Washington, it will reflect positively on the implementation of the House and Government’s decision to evacuate foreign forces and will facilitate its exit from Iraq ." Ended in / 25 pm

South Korea: We have not made a firm decision to deploy troops in the Strait of Hormuz
  
(International: Al Furat News) South Korean Foreign Minister "Kang Kyung Wa" said on Thursday that her country had not taken a firm decision to deploy its forces in the Strait of Hormuz, based on a request previously made by the United States.

"We should not necessarily be in one trench with Washington," Kang added, speaking to South Korean Yonhap News Agency.

The minister continued: "I think that the position of the United States and our position cannot be always the same regarding political analyzes and when considering bilateral relations with Middle Eastern countries."

"We have had strong and stable economic ties for a long time with Iran," she added.

Last August, Yonhap stated that US Defense Secretary Mark Esper asked South Korea to send soldiers to join a US-led naval force in the Strait of Hormuz off the coast of Iran.

The agency added, quoting unnamed officials, that Esper made this request during a meeting with Defense Minister Jeong Kyung-do in South Korea. There was no immediate comment from Seoul. is over

America imposes additional sanctions on Iran after a missile attack

Baghdad / Obelisk: The United States imposed Friday, January 10, 2020, more sanctions against Iran in response to its attack on American forces in Iraq this week, and pledged to tighten sanctions on the Iranian economy if Tehran continued what Washington described as terrorist acts.

The sanctions included the manufacturing, mining and textile sectors, as well as senior officials that Washington said were involved in the January 8 attack, on two military bases hosting US forces.

The US Treasury Secretary Stephen Mnuchin announced the sanctions at a White House press conference alongside Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.

Kerry deflects question about why he released money to Iran, accused Trump of 'lies'

President Trump details threat from Iran as new sanctions are announced

Counter terrorism expert Aaron Cohen joins ‘Your World.’

Former Secretary of State John Kerry faced a question about his role in releasing billions of dollars to Iran during the Obama administration and responded by first attacking President Trump’s criticism of the move.

President Trump has claimed that Iran’s recent aggression against the U.S. in Iraq was funded by $150 billion that the Obama administration gave to Iran. Kerry insists that this is false, although in the past he recognized the at least some of the money – which was frozen due to sanctions and held in banks around the world before being released at roughly the same time the Iran nuclear deal was made – would end up in the hands of terrorists.

 

“I think that some of it will end up in the hands of the IRGC or other entities, some of which are labeled terrorists,” Kerry told CNBC in 2016. When asked by Sunday on CBS’ “Face the Nation” why he believed this was a worthwhile risk when releasing the money, Kerry attacked the president rather than answer the question.

“You know that the president's tweet is a lie,” Kerry told host Margaret Brennan. “And the president tweeted this morning, because I am coming on the show and he knew you'd ask me the question or he'd push you in a place where you did ask the question. You and the media, I think, need to call a lie a lie.”

Brennan immediately reminded him that she asked the same question in 2015.

 

Kerry continued, saying that what he meant was that “clearly some money from the budget of Iran is going to go to the IRGC.” He then said that, contrary to what President Trump claims ”his own defense intelligence agency in 2017 testified to the Congress that very, very little money actually went to the IRGC at all.”

Kerry did not explain his rationale for releasing the money at the time, before he knew where the funds would end up.

Iran nuclear deal: European powers trigger dispute mechanism

File photo showing Iranian President Hassan Rouhani (R) inspecting nuclear technology in Tehran (9 April 2019)Image copyrightEPA Image captionIran says it suspended its nuclear commitments in response to the reinstated US sanctions

European powers have triggered a formal dispute mechanism over Iran's breaches of key parts of the 2015 nuclear deal - a move that could spell its end.

Iran has gradually lifted all limits on its production of enriched uranium, which can be used to make reactor fuel but also nuclear weapons.

It has said it is entitled to do so in response to sanctions reinstated by the US when it abandoned the deal in 2018.

France, Germany and the UK said they did not accept Iran's argument.

They said they were acting "in good faith with the overarching objective of preserving" the deal, which saw Iran agree to limit its sensitive activities and allow in inspectors in return for the lifting of crippling economic sanctions.

President Donald Trump reinstated US sanctions to force Iran to negotiate a new agreement that would place indefinite curbs on its nuclear programme and also halt its development of ballistic missiles. But Iran has so far refused.

The other parties to the deal - the three European powers plus China and Russia - have tried to keep it alive. But the sanctions have caused Iran's oil exports to collapse and the value of its currency to plummet, and sent its inflation rate soaring.

Iran insists that its nuclear programme is exclusively for peaceful purposes.

Presentational grey line Analysis box by Jonathan Marcus, defence correspondent

Bowing to the inevitable?

Treaties and agreements usually have dispute mechanisms to allow one party to challenge another if they think the terms of the deal are being broken. But that is not the situation with the Iran nuclear agreement.

That is because one major party - the US - has already abandoned it reimposing crippling economic sanctions against Tehran. For its part Iran has taken a series of steps to breach the deal's constraints. So the deal exists but in a kind of limbo - abandoned or largely abandoned by its two most important signatories.

In invoking the dispute mechanism, the Europeans are taking the first formal step towards writing its obituary. They insist that they will stand by it for as long as it exists and that they want a better deal - one that the US can support.

But it is very hard to see Iran accepting a more restrictive agreement that will include constraints on its missile programmes and maybe also its regional behaviour.

And it is equally hard to see President Trump lifting the sanctions - not least when he believes - with protests against the regime under way - that his maximum pressure campaign is working.

The European decision to invoke the dispute process may be a final bowing to the inevitable. The nuclear agreement is in a critical condition and slowly slipping away.

Presentational grey line

Why are the European powers acting now?

In a joint statement, the French, German and British foreign ministers reiterated their regret at the US decision to withdraw from the nuclear deal - formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) - and stressed that wanted to preserve the agreement.

The ministers said their countries - referred to as the E3 - had worked hard to bring Iran back into compliance and undertaken diplomatic initiatives to de-escalate tensions and to bring Iran and the US to the negotiating table for a comprehensive solution.

"The E3 remain fully committed to this diplomatic effort and intend to resume it as soon as conditions allow," they added. "However, in the meantime Iran has continued to break key restrictions set out in the JCPOA. Iran's actions are inconsistent with the provisions of the nuclear agreement and have increasingly severe and non-reversible proliferation implications."

"We do not accept the argument that Iran is entitled to reduce compliance with the JCPOA."

The ministers said Iran's decision on 5 January to suspend the last key commitment on uranium enrichment - the limit on the number of uranium centrifuges - had left them with no choice but to take action within the framework of the JCPOA, including through the Dispute Resolution Mechanism.

"We do this in good faith with the overarching objective of preserving the JCPOA and in the sincere hope of finding a way forward to resolve the impasse through constructive diplomatic dialogue, while preserving the agreement and remaining within its framework," they added.

What is the Dispute Resolution Mechanism?

The JCPOA outlines the mechanism, under which any party to the agreement can complain that another party is violating it and seek to resolve the issue.

The issue will be referred to a Joint Commission - comprising the E3, the European Union, Russia, China and Iran - that will have 15 days to resolve the issue, unless the time period is extended by consensus.

If the issue is not resolved, it can be referred to the foreign ministers of the various parties or to a three-member advisory board. That step can also take up to 15 days.

If that fails, the Joint Commission will have five days to settle the dispute.

If the complainant is still not satisfied and considers the matter to constitute "significant non-performance", it can treat the issue as grounds to cease performing its commitments under the JCPOA "in whole or in part". It could also notify the United Nations Security Council.

In the event of Iranian non-performance, a vote could be held at the Security Council on whether to "snap back" all the international and multilateral sanctions lifted under the JCPOA. No member would be able to veto such a move.

Iran said on Monday that it would consider withdrawing from the Non-Proliferation Treaty if its nuclear program was referred to On the UN Security Council.

Britain, France and Germany launched measures last week accusing Iran of failing to comply with the terms of the nuclear agreement concluded in 2015 , in a move that would push the Security Council to re - impose international sanctions on Tehran.

The transfer of the Iranian Shura Council site Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif as saying that the move lacks the European « any legal basis » , and that in the case of these countries have taken additional measures « will be considered in Iran 's withdrawal from the Treaty on the non - proliferation of nuclear weapons » .

The easing of the historic agreement , which was concluded in 2015 with Britain, China, France, Germany, Russia and the United States, sanctions Iran in exchange for placing restrictions on its nuclear program.

Iran responded to Washington's withdrawal from the agreement by gradually abandoning its obligations contained in it. It strongly criticized the three European countries that are still party to the agreement for not fulfilling their pledges to reduce the repercussions US sanctions on its economy, which is heavily dependent on oil.

Zarif said « If the Europeans returned to their obligations, will stop Iran as well as the abandonment of its obligations, but if the Europeans continued their approach ( ... ) we have different options » .

The foreign minister indicated that Iranian President Hassan Rouhani had warned former European Union foreign minister Federica Mogherini of these consequences in the three letters sent by the year 2018 .

He said « stated in the President 's message that in the case was referred this case to the Security Council, would be undertaken discuss Iran 's withdrawal from the Treaty on the non - proliferation of nuclear weapons, but we can think of ( Options ) Others before that . ” European officials have made clear that their decision to launch a dispute resolution mechanism was part of an effort to bring Iran back into compliance Thus save him.

However, the Iranian Foreign Ministry warned on Monday against taking further measures in response to the European move.

Abbas Mousavi said foreign ministry spokesman told a news conference in Tehran « If these measures continued, the Iran is working on a final and more effective measure " related to the nuclear deal.

And asked journalists to nothing more clarifications, Mousavi said the measure would be « serious » refusing to disclose For details.

He said « There are many options on the table for Iran, and will be announced in the event of reaching Agree » between its leaders.

Iran confirmed that the steps it had taken to reduce its obligations contained in the nuclear agreement could be reversed In the event that its interests are achieved.

US will not lift sanctions to negotiate with Iran

Zarif said Iran is still open to negotiations with US if sanctions are lifted

Tensions between the two have been increasing steadily since Trump pulled the United States out of Iran’s nuclear pact

DUBAI: The United States will not lift sanctions on Iran in order to negotiate, US President Donald Trump tweeted late on Saturday, seemingly in response to a Der Spiegel interview with Iran’s foreign minister.
“Iranian Foreign Minister says Iran wants to negotiate with The United States, but wants sanctions removed. @FoxNews @OANN No Thanks!” Trump tweeted in English on Saturday and later in Farsi.
Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif responded on Sunday by tweeting an excerpt from the interview with Der Spiegel published on Friday, where he said Iran is still open to negotiations with America if sanctions are lifted.
“@realdonaldtrump is better advised to base his foreign policy comments & decisions on facts, rather than @FoxNews headlines or his Farsi translators,” Zarif said in the tweet with the interview excerpt.
Tensions between Iran and the United States have reached the highest levels in decades after the US killed top Iranian General Qassem Soleimani in a drone strike in Baghdad on Jan. 3, prompting Iran to fire missiles days later at bases in Iraq where US troops are stationed.
Tensions between the two have been increasing steadily since Trump pulled the United States out of Iran’s nuclear pact with world powers in 2018 and reimposed sanctions that have driven down Iran’s oil exports and hammered its economy.

Hassan Rohani

 

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said in a speech broadcast on state television on Tuesday that the current US government is the worst in the history of the United States. Rouhani added that the upcoming parliamentary elections in Iran in February will have an impact on regional and international politics.

He said: "Any small country may impose its will on us if we do not have the power."

Rouhani and the Revolutionary Guards

The "Daily Telegraph" published several topics on the situation in Iran, including a report entitled "The tension between President Rouhani and the Iranian Revolutionary Guards comes out into the open."

The report evidenced this by criticism of the office of President Hassan Rouhani of the Revolutionary Guards and accused him of deceiving them regarding the shooting down of the Ukrainian plane.

The Guardian, for its part, published an article by Julian Burger, entitled "Iran's Crisis May Be an Opportunity for the United States."

Burger says President Trump "praised the images that came from Iran and clarified the Iranian students' refusal to walk over the American flag and considered them a great progress, but despite that, his administration seems not ready to offer anything to the Iranians more than the encouraging words."

Significant words
