US Secretary of State Tony Blincoln has said he will seek to strengthen and extend the Iranian nuclear agreement (JCPOA, Comprehensive Joint Action Plan).
“We will work with allies to extend and strengthen the nuclear agreement, while seeking to address other areas of interest, including Iran’s development of ballistic missiles,” Blincoln said at the UN disarmament conference.
He then referred to a meeting last weekend between Iran and the Secretary-General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), emphasizing that “Iran must comply with the IAEA’s Safeguard Agreement and international obligations.”
Earlier, the Iranian parliament voted to implement measures such as expanding uranium enrichment and halting inspections of the IAEA after nuclear scientist Mosen Parkrizade was assassinated in December last year. .
In response, IAEA secretary-general Rafael Grossey, who has been conducting nuclear inspections on the basis of the Additional Protocol to the Nuclear Agreement, agreed on the 20th with Iran to urgently visit Tehran and maintain the inspection for three months at a limited level.
The Iranian nuclear agreement was signed with Iran in 2015 by Britain, France, Germany, the United States, Russia and China, and includes Iran giving up nuclear development and lifting economic sanctions against Iran.
But in May 2018, the Iranian nuclear agreement was on the verge of collapse when the former US administration unilaterally withdrew from the agreement and restored sanctions against Iran.
President Joe Biden of the United States, who was launched later, has expressed his intention to return from the presidential election process, subject to prior observance of Iran’s nuclear agreement.
