Iran Demands That ‘All Sanctions are Lifted at Once’ to Move Forward in Talks

[Antares]

"
Iran’s state-owned Press TV is reporting that Tehran is demanding that all sanctions be lifted to proceed with a nuclear agreement.

“Our principle position is that all sanctions are lifted at once,” Iran’s senior nuclear negotiator and deputy foreign minister, Abbas Araqchi, reportedly told the network.

Negotiators, including Secretary of State John Kerry and Iran Foreign Minister Javad Zarif, met in Switzerland this week for the latest round of talks. They tentatively agreed to meet again on March 15, the Ides of March.

Araqchi further stressed that insisting no sanctions remain in place is a “very important aspect” of the talks.

Meeting with the Saudi foreign minister in Riyadh today, Kerry said he’s “seeking to show that Iran’s program is exclusively peaceful and that we can block all of the pathways necessary to acquire the fissile material for a nuclear weapon and then to be able to move towards the production of that weapon.”

Obama now joins the "Not Ready For Prime Time Players".

 

[Moonglow]

Iran seems to be squirming...

 

[Antares]

Nope, Iran is pushing on purpose and why not, Obama keeps giving in.

 

[MarathonMike]

Good Foreign policy is about strength and fear. Our strength, their fear. When you project weakness, this is what you get.

 

[william the wie]

Obama's approval ratings would hit a record low over this stunt.

 

[TheOldSchool]

.I think the US should pressure Israel to go to war with Iran. We'll arm them and give them money. And since they're supposedly our greatest ally they should be okay with it. Sound good?

 

[Antares]

That's what is going to happen anyway.

 

[TheOldSchool]

That's what is going to happen anyway.

Yeah let's speed it along. The pussyfooting around this whole thing is getting tiring.

I saw a report that Iran has massed 130000 on the Golan.

 

[eagle1462010]

Which means NO DEAL.................They'll never honor it anyway..............

The plan p5 keeps a lot of sanctions in place and a 70% oil embargo.................

No deal is gonna happen..............Unless we capitulate to THEIR DEMANDS............

In exchange they agree on paper to limit their development of Nuclear capabilities and allow inspections.............

Again, they will not honor the agreement.

Well damn. Let's get some Israeli's in there before they mass any more!

 

[eagle1462010]

Gun boat diplomacy works........................That isn't going to happen...............

aka............We can do this the hard way or the easy way...............Allow it, and stop supporting terrorist and groups like the Taliban who have been killing our troops or we will destroy your nuclear sites................

Be willing to back it up.............

BTW.............

That dummy aircraft carrier you sunk doesn't shoot back.

 

[Antares]

I have searched high and low, I cannot verify it.

Based on History I wouldn't bet against the Israeli's.

I bought Life Insurance from an Egyptian who fought in that war.

He could offer no explanation as to what happened, he said at the end all he and the others could do was huddle in their pill boxes and pray.

Since Obama is going to sell out the US again why doesn't he get it over with?

 

[TheOldSchool]

Wow and you fuckers think liberals have a Messiah complex

Bullshit. That's the neo cons foreign policy. Good foreign policy is about respect and honor and no entangling alliances with ANY nation.
