He noted that "there is no trust between Tehran and Washington - none at all, and it is clear that it cannot exist."
“Therefore, reaching any agreements is extremely difficult, then they require some verification, which in itself is also a very, very sensitive and complex issue.
But even without this, since the process of departing from the initially set parameters of the JCPOA has gone far enough, the return requires a lot of political will, ”Ryabkov said.
According to him, "the Iranians believe that it can be achieved at once: the measures to be taken by the US and Iran will be agreed."
“Further, after reaching this agreement, the phase of implementation of these measures begins, which, according to the Iranians, may be relatively short-lived.
I admit that this is so, but in order to reach this milestone, great efforts are required.
We do not have more clarity at the moment, but we, as a responsible participant in the JCPOA, will make every effort to stimulate the finding of appropriate solutions.
We have been doing this throughout the past week every day in different formats - in telephone conversations and teleconferences, videoconferences, discussing these issues and developing approaches, promoting our ideas that we have and which we have shared with everyone, including the United States and Iran, ” noted the diplomat.
