According to him, Iran usually declares its position atinternational meetings. Also, the lifting of sanctions against Iranwithin the framework initiated by other countries remains at thecenter of attention.
To note, the Comprehensive Plan of Joint Action on Iran'snuclear program was implemented between Iran and the P5+1 group(the United States, Russia, China, the United Kingdom, France, andGermany) in January 2016. The US announced in May 2018 that it waswithdrawing from the plan and imposed sanctions on Iran in Novemberof the same year. Iran has announced that there will be norestrictions on the Iran nuclear deal in 2020.
In late 2020, the Iranian parliament adopted a strategic plan tocounter the sanctions, citing the non-fulfillment of the JointComprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) signed between Iran and sixcountries and the imposition of sanctions on Iran.
According to the decision of the Iranian parliament, as ofFebruary 23, Iran had stopped the implementation of additionalmeasures and an additional protocol included in the nuclear deal a consequence, the monitoring mechanism of the IAEA was reducedby 20–30 percent.
Besides, the director general of the International Atomic EnergyAgency, Rafael Grossi, told the media in recent days that Iran hascome close enough to drawing attention to building an atomic bombafter the failure of nuclear talks. No country without an atomicbomb enriches uranium by 60 percent. Iran has enriched the atomicbomb more than the uranium needed to make it. It takes 90 percentenriched uranium to make an atomic bomb. But technically, 60percent enriched uranium is about the same as 90 percent enricheduranium.
