Activist and political analyst Sarbaz Roohulla Rezvi says the French president’s recent meeting with anti-Iran campaigners is part of the maximum pressure drive against Iran.

US President Joe Biden’s administration has announced plans to ease some sanctions imposed on Cuba by the former administration, including family remittances and travel, but the move falls short of ending the maximum pressure campaign.

Washington says attacks on US forces went up after the US assassination of General Soleimani and the designation of the IRGC as a terrorist organization.

Iran’s acting ambassador to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) says a successful conclusion of the Vienna talks is possible if the United States and the other signatories to the 2015 Iran deal take the necessary political decisions.

An advisor to the Iranian negotiating team in Vienna says Tehran has no reason to trust the US and Europe due to its JCPOA experience.

Iran says the complete removal of US sanctions is its “red line” during the course of negotiations with the remaining JCPOA signatories in Vienna.

An American senator says Iran got stronger after the US left the nuclear deal and implemented the “disastrous maximum pressure” policy.
