Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs: The statements of the United States, Britain and other countries on Iran’s nuclear program are "non-constructive"

　　Xinhua News Agency, Tehran, November 1st (Reporter Wang Shoubao Gao Wencheng) Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Khatibzad stated on the 1st that the statements made by the leaders of the United States, the United Kingdom, France and Germany on Iran’s nuclear program were "non-constructive." ".

　　Khatibzad stated that the statements made by the leaders of the four countries are "non-constructive" and do not conform to reality.

Iran’s nuclear activities are of a "peaceful nature." Iran does not seek to manufacture nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons have "no place" in Iran’s national defense strategy.

　　Khatibzad also stated that the current stalemate is caused by the irresponsibility of the United States and the three European countries, failure to fulfill their commitments, and violations of UN Security Council Resolution 2231.

　　According to reports, the leaders of the United States, Britain, France and Germany met on October 30 during the summit of the G20 leaders in Rome and issued a joint statement, expressing concerns about Iran’s nuclear program and saying that Iran has accelerated its “provocative nuclear activities”.

　　In July 2015, Iran reached a comprehensive agreement on the Iranian nuclear issue with the United States, Britain, France, Russia, China and Germany.

In May 2018, the US government unilaterally withdrew from the Iran nuclear agreement, and subsequently restarted and added a series of sanctions against Iran.

Since May 2019, Iran has gradually suspended the implementation of certain provisions of the Iran nuclear agreement, but promised that the measures taken are "reversible."

　　The talks between the parties involved in the Iranian nuclear agreement began in Vienna in April this year to discuss the issue of the United States and Iran resuming the implementation of the agreement. Six rounds have been held so far.

Due to serious differences between the United States and Iran and the change of leadership of the Iranian government, a new round of talks has not been held for a long time.

Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Bagheri recently stated that Iran agreed to restart Iran’s nuclear negotiations by the end of November. The only goal of the new round of negotiations is to "lift the cruel and illegal sanctions imposed by the United States on Iran."
