No insurmountable obstacles are seen in the process of
'fine-tuning' the agreement on reviving the Iran nuclear deal,
Director of the Russian Foreign Ministry's Department for
Non-Proliferation and Arms Control Vladimir Yermakov said in an
interview with TASS on Saturday, Trend reports.
'In diplomacy it frequently happens that the finish line is the
most difficult section of the road. We see no insurmountable
obstacles in the process of 'fine-tuning' the restoration package,'
Yermakov said.
'The main thing is that all the involved parties should proceed
from the good of the case, but not from the fleeting domestic
political situation, which, as you know, is a variable. In this
case, we certainly mean, first and foremost, our American
counterparts. We hope that their statements and highest-level
assurances about their willingness to return to the JCPoA (the
Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, known as the Iran nuclear deal
- TASS) will not remain pre-election slogans of a figure of
speech,' the diplomat stressed.
Speaking about the resumption of the Vienna talks aimed at
reviving the Iran nuclear deal, the diplomat pointed out that it is
a sophisticated mechanism of cooperation at various levels, from a
political to an expert one.
'The contacts have been ongoing in several formats with varying
degrees of intensity for a year. The delegations and capitals
involved in this multifaceted work retain their interest in the
JCPoA,' he noted.
Yermakov emphasized that the Iran nuclear deal has no reasonable
alternative.
'It is crucial that the current US administration will rectify
the mistakes and violations made by its predecessors. Washington
should strictly comply with Resolution 2231 of the UN Security
Council. A carefully calibrated balance of interests, which the
nuclear deal was built on, should be restored, whereas the root
causes of the crises and setbacks in the implementation of the
JCPoA should be eliminated. It is generally clear how to do it,' he
said.
