According to IRNA, the new round of negotiations to lift Iran sanctions after a five-month break began on August 13 in Vienna, and these negotiations ended after four days on August 17 when the delegations returned to the capitals.

The holding of this round of negotiations took place after the European Union’s foreign policy official claimed in the Financial Times newspaper that he has put a new proposal package on the table, which includes up-to-date solutions regarding the lifting of sanctions and Iran’s nuclear steps.

On August 25 (August 16), the Islamic Republic of Iran sent its comments and requests regarding the European Union’s proposals for sanctions relief negotiations in Vienna, and after more than a week, the United States sent its opinion on September 2 (August 24). He presented this to the European Union.

Following the end of this round of negotiations, the American and European Union officials claimed that the final text was presented to all parties, which cannot be changed and should either be accepted or the negotiations declared a failure, which is this claim by the Iranian Foreign Ministry official. It was rejected and it was announced that due to the continuation of discussions on several important issues, we are not yet at a stage where we can talk about the finalization of the text of the agreement in Vienna.

US Special Representative for Iran Robert Malley also announced that no agreement has been reached (on the nuclear negotiations) because there will be no agreement until all issues are agreed upon.

The talks have reached the crucial stages while reaching the finish line and the final agreement is pending the political decisions of the West, especially the United States of America as the party violating the 1994 agreement.

The delegation of the Islamic Republic of Iran emphasizes that it is necessary to reach an agreement, the stability of the lifting of sanctions is guaranteed in some way, and that an issue should not remain as a lever of pressure to be used against Iran in the future, and it is looking for an agreement in which the economic benefit of the people is ensured. Iran’s foreign trade should be removed and illegal restrictions on oil sales should be removed. From this point of view, if the opposite party accepts Iran’s logical demands and the requirements for the formation of a stable and reliable agreement, the final agreement will be reached.
