US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken pointed out that Iran’s reaction to the EU’s proposal to renew the nuclear agreement with it makes it unlikely that an agreement can be reached in the short term with Tehran.

He added at a press conference in the Mexican capital of Mexico City that “Iran has taken a step back with respect to negotiations with the P5+1 on the possibility of restoring the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action in its entirety, so that a nuclear agreement is unlikely in the short term,” and continued , saying, “It appears that Iran is either unwilling or unable to do what is necessary to reach an agreement.”

The White House previously confirmed that the United States was prepared for all scenarios related to the success or failure of the nuclear deal, and added: “We have made our intention very clear to ensure that Iran does not have nuclear weapons, and this is our ultimate goal here. “.
