US official: We’re updating Israel on Iran talks in Vienna despite differences
(Worthy News) – The US has been updating Israel on the progress of indirect negotiations with Iran over a possible return to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action and will continue a policy of transparency moving forward, a senior State Department official said Wednesday.
The official, who spoke on background during a briefing with reporters, said that the US recognizes Israeli reservations regarding the US desire to reenter the JCPOA, which traded sanctions relief in exchange for curbs on Iran’s nuclear program. The multilateral agreement was signed in 2015 by then US president Barack Obama and vacated three years later by his successor Donald Trump, who subsequently levied a host of sanctions on Tehran.
The State Department official said that the US has shared with Iran details of the sanctions it is prepared to lift under a return to a nuclear accord. When pressed, the official revealed that the US had discussed the matter of sanctions relief for Iran with Israeli officials as well. [ Source: Times of Israel (Read More…) ]
