Biden has not taken any practical steps to lift sanctions: Iranian Foreign Minister

Biden postures as anti-Trump, but when he wants to talk about Iran, he is still carrying the same sanctions record with him, and so far he has not taken any practical steps to lift the sanctions, Xinhua news agency quoted Amir Abdollahian as saying in an interview

Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian has cast doubts on US President Joe Biden’s alleged determination to revive the 2015 Iranian nuclear deal. 

“Biden postures as anti-Trump, but when he wants to talk about Iran, he is still carrying the same sanctions record with him, and so far he has not taken any practical steps to lift the sanctions,” Xinhua news agency quoted Amir Abdollahian as saying in an interview.

On Saturday evening, Biden, along with the leaders of Germany, France and the UK, issued a joint statement after a meeting at the sidelines of the G20 Summit in Rome, pointing to the American President’s “clearly demonstrated commitment to return to full compliance” with the nuclear agreement, formally known as Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). The statement also affirmed Biden’s commitment “to stay in full compliance, so long as Iran does the same”.
