Iran’s response in nuclear deal talks

Iran recently submitted a “written response” to final roadmap of restoring its torn nuclear deal with world powers. The country would not go with the proposal mediated by European Union.

Highlights:

  • Iran and United States have differences on three issues. Though, United States noted verbal flexibility in two issues. But Iran demands to include it in written.
  • The third issue is “to guarantee the continuation of Nuclear Deal”. This issue depends on realism of the United States.
  • On the other side, EU is the negotiator in the indirect talks, because Iran did not agree to negotiate with America directly. This is because, former US President Donald Trump had withdrawn the U.S. from Nuclear Deal in 2018.

Uranium enrichment in Iran:

As per latest report, Iran has accumulated around 3,800 kilograms of enriched uranium. Under the nuclear deal, Iran can enrich uranium to 3.67% purity and accumulate 300 kilograms of uranium, under the scrutiny of international inspectors and surveillance cameras. But now Iran enriches Uranium with up to 60% purity. It has also turned off the surveillance cameras and seized other footage.

Iran Nuclear Deal:

This deal is also known as Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action. It is an agreement on Iranian nuclear program. It was signed on July 14, 2015 in Vienna between Iran and the P5+1 countries. Under the deal, Iran had agreed to remove the accumulation of medium-enriched uranium, and reduce the accumulation of low-enriched uranium by 98%. Iran also agreed to enrich uranium up to 3.67%, for next 15 years.
