Blinken: The status of the Vienna talks will become clear in the next day or two
According to IRNA, Ali Bagheri, the senior negotiator of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the Vienna talks, announced today and hours ago that the Iranian side had submitted its proposed text in the form of two issues: lifting oppressive sanctions and nuclear issues.
“Last night, we provided two documents to the other side,” Bagheri told Iranian reporters based in Vienna. The first document of the views of the Islamic Republic of Iran on the issue of lifting sanctions, as well as the second document on the issue of Iran’s nuclear actions were provided to the other side. Normally, the other party should review these documents and prepare for serious talks and negotiations with the Islamic Republic of Iran on the texts provided. But the important thing is that these dialogues have a wide variety of international implications.
Reflecting on the news of Iran’s proposed text, foreign news sources said that today was an important day in the ongoing negotiations in Vienna.
Asked if he had received any sign of progress in the Vienna talks, Anthony Blinken, who traveled to the Swedish capital, Stockholm, to attend the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) summit, reiterated some of the threadbare claims about Iran. : In the very near future, and maybe in the next day or two, we will be able to judge whether Iran really has good intentions to reach an agreement.
Despite comments by officials and diplomats participating in the Iran-P5 + 1 talks in Vienna that the atmosphere in the talks was positive, Blinken did not mention his country’s unilateral and illegal withdrawal from the UN Security Council, which has caused many current problems with the international agreement. “But recent actions and statements have not created much room for optimism,” he said. However, although it is too late, it is still not too late for Iran to return to its commitments.
He said he had good talks today with his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov about the Vienna talks.
“We have to wait and see what happens in Vienna in the next one or two days,” Blinken said, noting that it is the United States that should pave the way for an agreement reached in the Vienna talks by lifting sanctions on the Iranian people.
He argued that Iran needed to prove more quickly that it was serious about reaching an agreement.
