Iran, June 11, 2018 - The United States pulled out of the Iran nuclear deal on May 9th, slapping back a long list of frozen sanctions against the Iranian regime. The same sanctions that forced Tehran to the negotiating table with bloody knees, and this time with even more intensity.
There are claims heard that Europe can save the Iranian regime’s economy with its own versionof the nuclear pact, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
It is, of course, quite natural for Europe to seek its economic benefits to salvage anything from the JCPOA corpse. Interesting, however, are comments heard from senior Iranian regime officials.
“In one word, I believe the JCPOA is dead and the Europeans are busy eating the flesh of a dead corpse,” said Mohammad Javad Larijani, secretary of the so-called Human Rights Department in the Iranian regime’s judiciary, according to state TV.
Iranian regime Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei delivered his thoughts and “conditions” to maybe prevent Europe from taking too much advantage of Tehran’s weakness.
“… Europe must guarantee the issue of our missiles and presence in the region are not raised… they must explicitly stand in the face of U.S. sanctions,” he said, according to state TV.
While Khamenei is in his own world ordering the European to this and that, there are no signs indicating European leaders caring less. This is especially true considering the current balance of power the Iranian regime is under.
The European Union believes the nuclear agreement is not complete and they must discuss other issues with Iran, such as their missile program, according to Iranian state TV citing French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Angela Merkel. The JCPOA must be rescued and of course completed to include Iran’s regional influence and missile capabilities, the report adds.
