Iran has upped the rhetoric in the latest spat over what Tehran says was a “done deal” with the US, one Iranian official Saeed Khatibzadeh tweeted
That stalemate has also prompted a reaction by Iranian Deputy foreign minister Abbas Araghchi who
said Iran is preparing for a transfer of power to the incoming administration of Ebrahim Raisi in early August, and therefore months-long talks in Vienna to restore the country’s 2015 nuclear deal with world powers must wait.
US State Department spokesman Ned Price said later on Saturday that the comments were “an outrageous effort to deflect blame from the current impasse”“We stand ready to return to Vienna to complete work on a mutual return to the JCPOA once Iran has made the necessary decisions,” Price said, as reported by the Reuters news agency. There was no immediate comment from the UK government.
