Trump: Jag har fattat ett beslut om Iranavtalet

Donald Trump har tagit ett beslut om huruvida USA ska lämna kärnteknikavtalet med Iran eller inte, rapporterar Reuters. Han vill dock inte säga vad han har bestämt sig för.

Avtalet, som slöts 2015, innebar att sanktionerna mot Iran lättades i utbyte mot att landet begränsade sitt kärnteknikprogram. Vid talet till FN i går kallade Trump avtalet ”en skam för USA”.

Om USA hoppar avtalet är Iran ”förberett på all scenarier”, enligt ett uttalande till Reuters från en källa högt uppsatt inom den iranska administrationen.

The Iran nuclear deal framework was a preliminary framework agreement reached in 2015 between the Islamic Republic of Iran and a group of world powers: the P5+1 (the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council—the United States, the United Kingdom, Russia, France, and China—plus Germany) and the European Union. Negotiations for a framework deal over the nuclear program of Iran took place between the foreign ministers of the countries at a series of meetings held from 26 March to 2 April 2015 in Lausanne, Switzerland. On 2 April the talks came to a conclusion and a press conference was held by Federica Mogherini (High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs) and Mohammad Javad Zarif (Minister of Foreign Affairs of Iran) to announce that the eight parties had reached an agreement on a framework deal. The parties announced, "Today, we have taken a decisive step: we have reached solutions on key parameters of a Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action," which they intended to complete by 30 June. Announcing the framework, Foreign Minister Zarif stated: "No agreement has been reached so we do not have any obligation yet. Nobody has obligations now other than obligations that we already undertook under the Joint Plan of Action that we adopted in Geneva in November 2013." The framework deal was embodied in a document published by the EU's European External Action Service titled Joint Statement by EU High Representative Federica Mogherini and Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif Switzerland. and in a document published by the U.S. Department of State titled Parameters for a Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action Regarding the Islamic Republic of Iran's Nuclear Program. On 14 July 2015, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action between Iran and the P5+1 and EU, a comprehensive agreement based on the April 2015 framework, was announced. Just before the final deadline on 18 April 2017, the Trump administration certified that Iran had continued to comply with the framework agreement.
