After Middle East escalation
New nuclear negotiations with Iran?
Iran is reportedly in contact with the USA to renegotiate the mullah regime's nuclear program. Under the title "Saving the agreement in the midst of a war crisis", the daily newspaper "Shargh" reported on Sunday, citing informed sources, that the Iranian UN mission in New York is coordinating talks.
There has been no official confirmation so far. However, Iran's Foreign Minister Hussein Amirabdollahian admitted on Saturday that talks on the nuclear agreement had also been held during his stay in New York. However, he did not provide any further details, including whether the talks were held with US representatives or not. However, he did say that Iran was interested in a "diplomatic solution" to the conflicts in the Middle East.
Military conflict with Israel as leverage?
According to commentators, the leadership in Tehran wants to use the recent military conflict with arch-enemy Israel as leverage to revive the 2015 Vienna nuclear agreement. In return for a de-escalation demanded by the West, there should be new nuclear negotiations. The aim is to lift the sanctions that are paralyzing Iran. The planned visit to Tehran by the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Rafael Grossi, is also seen in the same context.
Things went downhill after the US withdrew from the nuclear deal
Following the Vienna nuclear deal in 2015 and the lifting of sanctions, the ailing Iranian economy experienced a brief upturn. Oil exports in particular, the country's main source of income, returned to relative normality. However, since the USA withdrew from the deal in 2018 - under President Donald Trump at the time - and new sanctions were imposed, the oil-rich country has been in the worst financial crisis in its history. The national currency, the rial, has lost more than 60 percent of its value since then.
