US sanctions on Zarif .. How I met in Iran?

Al Jazeera Net - Tehran

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - US sanctions on their country's foreign minister, Mohammad Javad Zarif, have disappointed hopes of a nuclear deal, analysts said, and Tehran is about to take a third step in reducing its commitments to the deal.

A month after US President Donald Trump issued an executive order to impose "severe" sanctions on top of Iran's supreme leader, Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, the United States imposed sanctions on his foreign minister, Mohammed Jawad Zarif.

On June 24, the US Treasury issued sanctions against the Supreme Leader and eight senior Revolutionary Guard commanders after Trump dropped a last-minute military strike on Iran in retaliation for dropping a US reconnaissance plane while Washington then delayed sanctions on Zarif.

Zarif played down the importance of US sanctions and its impact on him and his family "because they have no property or interests" outside the country, commenting on what America said sanctions on Zarif included freezing its assets and punishing those who supported it financially.

Observers in Iran believe that the sanctions on Zarif completely block the diplomatic way out of the crisis, ranging from the escalation and the reduction of tension at other times, and does not presage change in the handling of the Trump administration with Tehran.

Sanctions and arrogance
"These sanctions are a sign of the failure of American policy," "Iranian policy," "contrary to human rights, international laws and freedom of expression," and "aimed at diplomatic relations and international covenants," said Iranian politician Hossein Kanaani Moghaddam.

"America does not want the logic to prevail, it does not want to achieve the principle of dialogue, it is actively seeking arrogance and sanctions, and underestimating its importance because the world has become a global village where America can not hold the word. Of Iranian diplomacy, as opposed to America, which wants to undermine Iranian diplomacy.

The Iranian politician referred to the White House's duplicity of its desire to negotiate with Tehran, while imposing sanctions on the head of the Iranian diplomatic service, describing the American step as a "psychological war" and "the ashes in the eyes."

He stressed that America closed the window of diplomacy and negotiate with Iran by imposing sanctions on Zarif, adding that the recent sanctions resulted from Trump's conviction that Tehran succeeded in nuclear negotiations at the expense of his predecessor, Barack Obama.

Kanaani expressed his belief that the hopes for rescuing the nuclear agreement went unheeded after the sanctions were imposed on Zarif, and that before Tehran took the third step in reducing its commitments to the agreement, a step that can not be undone. This means that Iran will not return its steps even if it is activated. European Instex Exchange Mechanism ".

Their patience has run out
For his part, researcher Ruzbeh Alamadari pointed out that the reason for the US sanctions on Zarif is that he is the main spokesman for Iran in the world, which led to the impatience of America's leaders and forced them to use the logic of arrogance in the eyes of the world.

He explained that the "B" team is alleged to be the most powerful psychological process to influence the Iranian decision-making and remove Tehran from rationality, adding that the team seeks to weaken the approach of rationality and logic in Iran and put it in front of my choice: "war or negotiations."

"If the Islamic Republic avoids negotiations in the current circumstances, it also rejects the option of war," he said.

The researcher stressed that Iran wants its missile program to create a balance of deterrence and strengthen its security and security of the region, explaining that the four countries of the four Baha'i seek arrogance and killing innocent, which contributed to the insecurity in the Middle East.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, John Bolton, the US national security adviser, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed.

Almadari said that the current American policy trumps Trump more and more from the possibility of reaching an agreement with Iran, which is the result of the inability of Americans to understand the simplest facts on the inside of Iran.

US sanctions against Iran's foreign minister come as a result of US resentment of Zarif's recent visit to New York and his interviews with US media, which was not met by Mike Pompeo, whose request to speak to the media in Tehran was rejected by the Iranian side.

Interaction and Trigidae
The Iranians interacted on social networking platforms to express their rejection of the targeting of US sanctions by their foreign minister. "The document of America's hatred and hatred of Zarif has been recorded in history," said international law professor Reda Nasri.

For his part, spokesman for the Council of Guardians Abbas Kadkhaddai US sanctions resulted from the latter's fear of "the word", and not only "missiles."

"The sanctions on Zarif mean lying all Trump's statements and his administration's officials to dialogue and negotiation (with Iran), as well as the lie of American freedom of speech," Khadkhadi said.

The Iranians reintroduced Zarif's statement, "Thank you because you consider me a great threat to your goals" in their pages, describing them as an intelligent response from the Iranian diplomat and expressing his contempt for US sanctions.
