NCRI – A senior Iranian lawmaker who is considered to be a confidant of the Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei is threatening the West by saying that the clerical regime will \u201crevive and speed up nuclear activities, including enrichment\u201d if all sanctions are not removed under a final deal.<\/p>\n
Mohammad Hassan Asafari, a member of the parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission said if sanctions are not removed “Iran will expedite its nuclear program\u201d, state-run Fars News Agency reported.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the chairman of the commission said in an interview: \u201cThe fact that recent negotiations, including the Muscat talks, failed to bear any results is due to extra demands of the US and unfair sanctions they insist not to be removed all at once\u201d.<\/p>\n
Alaeddin Boroujerdi said: \u201c\u201call sanctions should be removed all at once.\u201d<\/p>\n
In response to a question about chances of extending the interim deal, Boroujerdi said \u201ceven within such an agreement some of the sanctions should be removed.\u201d<\/p>\n
He described \u2018red lines\u2019 set by Ali Khamenei as the most important issue and stated that the Supreme National Security Council has been in charge of negotiations and the Parliament is closely watching the talks to prevent any possible mistakes.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile The Los Angeles Times reported on Saturday that \u201cthe latest obstacle to the U.S. and five other nations finalizing a nuclear deal with Iran by this month\u2019s deadline is an unexpected new demand from Tehran for quick relief from United Nations sanctions.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cFor most of the last nine months of negotiations, Iran and a diplomatic bloc of six world powers have focused on first easing unilateral economic sanctions imposed by the U.S. and European nations. Under the talks, if Iran accepts restrictions intended to prevent it from developing a nuclear weapon, the U.S. and other countries would begin lifting sanctions designed to cripple Iran’s oil and financial industries.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe so-called P5-plus-1 bloc, consisting of the five permanent U.N. Security Council members and Germany, prefers to wait until later to remove the U.N. penalties, which were imposed between 2006 and 2010. But in recent weeks, Iran\u2019s negotiators have shifted ground and pressed for quicker relief from the U.N. measures.\u201d<\/p>\n
The report added: \u201cSome diplomats say privately that they believe there is now a higher likelihood that the two sides won\u2019t complete a full deal on time and will instead present a \u201cframework\u201d document that lays out a set of agreed-to principles to justify a request for further time for negotiations.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
