Negotiations on the Iranian nuclear program have been postponed, while Trump threatens military intervention if a new agreement fails to reach.
The Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs said on Friday that sanctions on Tehran’s business partners will not affect Iran’s policy. It said after US President Donald Trump threatened to impose sanctions on countries or individuals shoppers from Iran. According to the AFP report, TASR reports this.
“The continuation of this illegal procedure will not change Iranian attitudes based on logic, legitimacy and international law,” the Iranian ministry said. At the same time, it condemned pressure on the business and economic partners of Iran. According to Tehran, these steps of Washington, according to Tehran, suspect that the United States do not mean this with diplomacy against Iran.
On Thursday, Trump announced on his platform Truth Social that it intends to impose sanctions on anyone who buys oil from Iran. These individuals or countries will no longer be able to trade with the US.
“Attention: All purchases of Iranian oil or petrochemical products must be stopped immediately! Any country or person who buys any amount of oil or petrochemical products from Iran will immediately be subject to secondary sanctions.
This paper was published shortly after the fourth round of negotiations between Washington and Tehran on the Iranian nuclear program, originally planned for Saturday, for “logistics reasons”. Interviews between Special US Ambassador Steve Witkoff and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Arakčí were to be held in Rome. According to Oman, which acts as their intermediary, will be announced by mutual agreement of both parties.
In 2015, Iran, after lengthy negotiations with China, Russia, the USA, France, Germany and Britain, agreed to limit its nuclear program. However, in 2018, Trump unilaterally resigned from the agreement and imposed new sanctions on Iran. As a result, Tehran has ceased to comply with the terms of the agreement. The US President is now trying to reach a new agreement, and threatened Tehran by military strikes if it fails. From April 12, three rounds of copper negotiations were held by Iran and the United States.
