Iran's Foreign Minister: U.S. Does Not Have Option of Adding New Issues to Nuclear Deal
(MEMRI) A. Savyon, Yigal Carmon, and Ze'ev B. Begin - Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad-Javad Zarif said on Dec. 9: "The subjects that do not appear in the JCPOA are not absent by accident, but rather by decision....America is in no position to set conditions for its return [to the JCPOA]....If the [missiles and regional intervention] do not appear in the JCPOA, it's because they compromised on these issues. They failed to put them in the JCPOA. They do not have that option." Yet for the U.S. to lift the sanctions on Iran while disregarding Iran's regional aggression and missile development would be dangerously reckless.
