Trump’s ‘maximum pressure’ strategy is dangerous and should end

Posted on

Seyed Hossein Mousavian

By destroying the deal, the Trump administration effectively dismantled the most comprehensive mechanism of inspection in the history of the NPT. The US has also presented a draft resolution to the Security Council to extend a UN arms embargo on Tehran. The real US strategy is to “snap back” all UN sanctions on Iran, with full knowledge that Russia and China would not agree to renew the arms embargo, which is a clear violation of the nuclear deal and UN Resolution 2231.

(Le Monde) Iran : les négociateurs de l’accord nucléaire « ont une cible dans le dos »

Posted on

“M. Zarif, quant à lui, demeure relativement épargné. Le principal artisan de l’accord, l’une des personnalités les plus populaires en Iran, maintient des relations ouvertement cordiales avec des figures des gardiens, et multiplie les marques d’allégeance au Guide suprême. Mais si ses démarches pour convaincre l’Europe de rester dans l’accord échouent, « l’Iran se radicalisera contre la menace extérieure (…), et il sera naturel et nécessaire que des figures sécuritaires prennent un rôle plus important », estime Hossein Mousavian, chercheur à l’université américaine de Princeton.”

Pompeo’s Demands on Iran At Odds with Reality

Posted on

“Secretary of State Mike Pompeo laid out a list of demands on Iran in a speech threatening to ‘crush’ the country on Monday. His bellicose words come weeks after President Donald Trump pulled the United States out of the Iran nuclear deal and are nothing short of an ultimatum demanding Iran’s total surrender to U.S. wishes … Pompeo’s twelve demands reflect a misunderstanding of Iranian foreign policy, international law, and the realities of the region.”

Iran must engage in NPT subject to full JCPOA implementation

Posted on

On Trump’s views about amending the JCPOA, Seyed Hossein Mousavian told PD: “Trump’s demands to amend the JCPOA have no legal and logical basis; because the agreement has been backed both by the UN Security Council and the IAEA.” To the question of what Iran will decide if Trump withdraws from the JCPOA, he answered: “I am not aware of the decisions made by Iranian authorities, but I believe Iran should use the guidelines provided in the JCPOA and take its grievances to the mutual commission set up with the P5+1 signatories.”
