US anti-Iran embargo sign of misunderstanding negotiations logic
Tehran, IRNA – The United States has never opened an avenue for improving talks on the revival of the 2015 Iran nuclear deal; instead, it has imposed new sanctions on a number of Iranian officials, proving that American authorities are deeply unaware of international interactions, an Iranian lawmaker said.
Abbas Moghtadaei, the deputy chairman of the National Security and Foreign Policy Commission of the Iranian parliament, told IRNA on Sunday that the fact that the US statesmen are untrustworthy is now fully proven more than ever.
The Americans violated their obligations once, and now they are showing such behaviors, which indicate that they are still unreliable, the legislator warned.
Pointing to the fact that the US infringes international regulations easily, he said that the American authorities look at other countries the same way certain states used to consider other nations as their subordinates in the 18th and 19th centuries and that such a behavior has its roots in the way of thinking of Niccolo Machiavelli and Thomas Hobbes.
The legislator, who represents Isfahan, noted that Hobbes believes that "man is wolf to man" and Machiavelli also underlined that "The end justifies the means", so the US has resorted to these thinkers’ theories in its policies for years.
However, the Islamic Republic of Iran pursues its own path and despite the fact that it has paid a heavy price for the US’s breach of covenant, Tehran has succeeded in achieving a nuclear breakthrough.
The US attempts to utilize international organizations, such as the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), entities affiliated with the United Nations, the UN Security Council, and legal associations to maximize its own interests, he argued.
According to the MP, the American officials consider bullying and stealing as parts of their foreign policy, but the Islamic Republic showed that it complies with its commitments under the nuclear deal while it possesses tools to guarantee Iranians’ national interests despite the US’s violation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
The progress of talks in Vienna, Austria, to revive the nuclear accord and lift anti-Iran sanctions has happened because of Iranians’ good faith and cooperation up to now, he said, adding that the US understands merely the logic of force, while the Islamic Republic will use its precise tools to make the American authorities find out the changes of time and place.
