The United States warned on Tuesday that it was up to Iran to unblock negotiations to salvage a deal on Tehran’s nuclear program, which still stumbled on “difficult” issues.
“The ball is in Tehran’s court, on which it depends to make decisions that it may find difficult,” said Ned Price, a spokesman for US diplomacy.
“There are a number of difficult issues that we are always trying to resolve,” he added.
“An agreement of this kind it is neither imminent nor certain, and for that reason, for much of the time, we have been preparing for every case, for every scenario, “including the failure of the negotiations and the death of the agreement, which aims to prevent Iran from acquiring an individual weapon, the spokesman stressed.
“We have been discussing alternatives for a long time with our partners in the region”, in the Middle East and “with our European partners”, “we have prepared a lot”, he noted, without specifying, however, the outline of a plan B.
He reiterated that US President Joe Biden’s commitment to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear bomb would be met, with or without an agreement with Tehran.
