<\/h2>\n<\/h2>\nUPDATE: 3:30 PM CEST<\/strong><\/p>\n U.S. State Department Spokesperson Ned Price warned about Tehran’s continuous approach of stalling negotiations while proceeding with nuclear advancements and hindering IAEA’s monitoring.<\/p>\n During his press briefing on Wednesday, September 9, he said: “We continue to see concerning reports from the IAEA when it comes to nuclear safeguards and when it comes to Iran\u2019s compliance with the NPT. And we are cognizant that as Iran puts to use the more sophisticated technology, as Iran garners knowledge from the nuclear program that it is currently administrating that is not in compliance with the JCPOA, that will dull the original advantages that the JCPOA brought forth in 2015 and the ensuing years. So this process cannot go on indefinitely.”<\/p>\n Source<\/a><\/p>\n UPDATE: 11:30 AM CEST<\/strong><\/p>\n U.S. Senator Jim Risch (R-Idaho), a ranking member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, released a statement ahead of next week\u2019s International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Board of Governors meeting, calling for IAEA’s board to censure Tehran.<\/p>\n Senator Risch’s statement reads: \u201cThe IAEA Board of Governors should censure Iran for its failure to engage with the IAEA\u2019s investigation and for obstructing its monitoring activities. Iran\u2019s recent actions are not consistent with its claims to have a peaceful nuclear program, and instead indicate it has something to hide from the international community. The Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons is under increasing strain around the globe. For the sake of the global nonproliferation regime, Iran cannot be permitted to defy the IAEA with impunity.\u201d<\/p>\n Source<\/a><\/p>\n The US Treasury Department announced in a statement that Newtech, a Texas-based company has agreed to pay a fine of nearly $200,000 for possible violations of US sanctions against the Iranian regime.<\/p>\n The US Treasury Department announced on Thursday, September 18, that it had sued Newtech over the production and supply of 3D animation hardware and software that are subject to 52 possible breaches of US sanctions.<\/p>\n The statement said that possible violations of the sanctions followed Newtech’s decision to export items, technologies, and services from the United States to distributors in a third country, knowing that they were specifically intended to reach companies or individuals in Iran. These products have been provided to the Broadcasting Organization of the Iranian regime. The company agreed to pay $189,483 for possible fines and settle the case.<\/p>\n UPDATE: 8:30 AM CEST<\/strong><\/p>\n In a letter to UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, 25 Nobel laureates expressed their solidarity and sympathy with the relatives and friends of those executed during the 1988 massacre of the political prisoners in Iran. The Nobel laureates \u201cunderscore the need to set up an international commission by the United Nations to investigate this enormous crime.\u201d Read more<\/a><\/p>\n The\u00a0People\u2019s Mojahedin Organization of Iran<\/a>\u00a0(PMOI\/MEK<\/a>) announced on Thursday, September 9, 2021.

The UN\u2019s nuclear watchdog agency also said Tehran is obstructing the important monitoring work of international inspectors.<\/p>\n Read more<\/a><\/p>\n Iran\u2019s nuclear case is becoming one of the main foreign policy challenges of Ebrahim Raisi\u2019s government despite Raisi\u2019s claim before taking office that Iran\u2019s 2015 nuclear deal with world powers (JCPOA) was overstated by the then government for its election contest.\u00a0But regardless of the continuity quality of the JCPOA agreement, this is an agreement that has strategic importance for the regime, therefore there is no way to deviate from this path.<\/p>\n Read more<\/a><\/p>\n As reported by the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) on September 8, the United Nations Security-General Antonio Gutteres presented a report, earlier this week, to the UN General Assembly in regards to the human rights situation in Iran.\u00a0One of the main issues discussed in the report was the 1988 massacre and how the Iranian regime authorities have attempted for 33 years to conceal all evidence of the horrific crime against humanity which saw 30,000 political prisoners executed over a period of 3 months.<\/p>\n Read more<\/a><\/p>\n There are increasing concerns about Zahra Safaei\u2019s condition due to her lack of information on her whereabouts after being hospitalized for her heart condition.

The regime\u2019s security and intelligence forces have embarked on a wave of arbitrary arrests of young people, former political prisoners, and supporters of the PMOI\/MEK in various cities. The regime has also put pressure on political prisoners with ties to the Iranian opposition PMOI\/MEK.<\/p>\n Read more<\/a><\/p>\n Read more: <\/strong>Iran News in Brief \u2013 September 9, 2021\u00a0<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\nNed Price: The Process with Iran Cannot Go on Indefinitely<\/h3>\n
