Foreign ministers hope US will lift sanctions in effort to revive 2015 agreement with Tehran 

European foreign ministers from Germany, France and the UK have met to discuss a joint approach with the incoming Joe Biden administration on reviving the Iranian nuclear deal. 

The three nations, whose ministers met in Berlin, are hoping Tehran can reach an agreement under which the US would lift its crippling sanctions in return for Iran ending its non-compliance with the 2015 agreement constraining its nuclear activities. 


WNU Editor: There were many flaws in the original 2015 agreement with Tehran. From an inspection regime that was deeply flawed and inadequate, to omitting Iran's ballistic missile program from the agreement. There is also the time duration of the agreement .... ten years .... of which almost six years have already passed. And then there is the evidence of Iran's non-compliance of the agreement to begin with. And now these foreign ministers want to return to that arrangement?!?!?

The arrangement stated that Iran would not develop nukes. If evidence found they had done so, then attacking them would be legally justified. Without a treaty, an attack would have no legal justification.
What has the current nontreaty administration done to slow down or inspect Iran? True: sanctions. But Iran has found a way around them.

Without paper no legal authority exists?

So, if a what was left of the American fleet on Dec. 7, 1941 had found and attacked the Japanese fleet after they started withdrawing, but before Congress passed a declaration of war, it would have been a war crime?

The U.S. did not get a mother May piece of paper for the League of Nations. So the whole involvement of thew U.S. during World War 2 must have been a wear crime!

Why don't to you make an analogy between a storm front and War and get back to us.


"True: sanctions. But Iran has found a way around them."

Really? That is why their economy still sucks?

I've said it often here. Anything Iran wants from The Biden Admin, Iran will get.
