Iran's chief nuclear negotiator: Now closer than ever to a deal
In the early morning of the 17th local time, Iran's chief nuclear negotiator and Deputy Foreign Minister Bagheri said on social media that after weeks of intensive negotiations, a deal is now closer than ever.
But unless all issues are agreed, there is no agreement.
He pointed out that the other side of the negotiation (the United States) needs to be realistic and learn the lessons of the past four years.
Now is the time for the negotiating parties to make serious decisions.
Shamkhani, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, posted on social media on the 16th that the United States and Europe failed to pass the test of fulfilling their obligations under the Iran nuclear deal.
He stressed that Iran will not negotiate beyond the Iran nuclear deal with the United States, which is not keeping its promises, and Europe, which is acting negatively.
