Raisi, speaking through a translator in a “60 Minutes” interview aired on Sunday, said Iran is willing to enter what he called a “good deal and fair deal” but harbours doubts after former US president Donald Trump exited the last pact.
Negotiators have worked painstakingly toward a new pact but remain at loggerheads. The US recently rejected Iran’s comments on a proposed framework as “not constructive”, dousing hopes that a breakthrough was imminent. Raisi expressed displeasure that Biden has kept in place sanctions imposed by Trump after he left the deal and said he sees little difference between the two administrations.
Raisi reiterated Iran’s longstanding denial of any interest in developing nuclear weapons, saying its enrichment programs are aimed at advances in fields like medicine, agriculture and oil and gas. He didn’t elaborate.
In this matter, the USA are bigots. Iran has walked a road of compliance littered with obstruction. The US-led ‘western bloc’ doesn’t want Iran to be self-sufficient ‘cos it can. This makes Israel stuck in itself not being able to counter Iran.
