This is the third time Iran has dialed back its nuclear deal commitments, raising fears that there's little time left to save the agreement.
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani speaks at a session of parliament to debate his proposed tourism and education ministers, in Tehran, Iran, Tuesday, Sept. 3, 2019. Rouhani said European nations are failing to implement their commitments following the U.S. pullout from the 2015 nuclear deal with Tehran.
France has nonetheless stepped up efforts, but minimal progress has been reported. At the Group of 7 economic summit in France last month, Trump and other leaders set off speculation that the U.S. was planning a presidential summit with Iran. But Iranian President Hassan Rouhani suggested the next day that such a meeting would be pointless unless the U.S. first lifted sanctions.
“There is an understanding that Trump may be elected...then they will have to negotiate with Trump, but if not Iran will have leverage with ain office,” Tabatabai said. “Iran has limited tools it can play with and that’s why it has taken more minor incremental steps.” Tabatabai said Europe’s efforts have also been made difficult because the Trump administration believes providing Tehran with an economic lifeline would undermine its pressure.
