On January 12, US President Donald Trump announced that the US will continue to waive economic sanctions related to the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran, but only as the “last chance” and stressed that he will not do this again, according to Reuters.
“This is a last chance … In the absence of such an agreement, the United States will not again waive sanctions in order to stay in the Iran nuclear deal. And if at any time I judge that such an agreement is not within reach, I will withdraw from the deal immediately.” Trump said in a statement.
Trump also called on European countries to join his efforts in order to “fix significant flaws” in Iran’s nuclear deal. Moreover, the US president warned that if European partners do not support his efforts, he will terminate the nuclear deal with Iran.
“I hereby call on key European countries to join with the United States in fixing significant flaws in the deal, countering Iranian aggression, and supporting the Iranian people … If other nations fail to act during this time, I will terminate our deal with Iran,” Trump said.
Regarding Trump’s “efforts”, a US official revealed to Reuters that Trump will now work with its European partners to pressure Iran to accept a follow-on agreement that limits its missile program.
In a related development, the US Treasury Department announced in a statement that it has issued new sanctions against 14 Iranian figures and entities linked to the country’s ballistic missile program and the recent crackdown on anti-government protesters including the head of Iran’s judiciary, Ayatollah Sadeq Larijani.
“We are targeting the Iranian regime, including the head of Iran’s judiciary, for its appalling mistreatment of its citizens, including those imprisoned solely for exercising their right to freedom of peaceful assembly, and for censoring its own people as they stand up in protest against their government … We are also targeting Iran’s ballistic missile program and destabilizing activities, which it continues to prioritize over the economic well-being of the Iranian people,” US Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin said in the statement.
Iran’s Minister of Foreign Affairs described the new US sanctions and Trump’s threats as “desperate attempts” to undermine Iran’s nuclear deal. The Iranian foreign minister also stressed on Twitter that the nuclear deal with Iran is not renegotiable and called on the US to comply with the deal’s conditions.
Trump’s policy & today’s announcement amount to desperate attempts to undermine a solid multilateral agreement, maliciously violating its paras 26, 28 & 29. JCPOA is not renegotiable: rather than repeating tired rhetoric, US must bring itself into full compliance -just like Iran.

Agreement with US only worth of the piece of ink and paper it’s signed with.
It doesn’t even worth that, believe me… You’ll waste a piece of paper and some ink.
I think the Iranians knowingly and with careful calculation decided to negotiate a deal with the USA. A new president was elected and with determination and against opposition reached an agreement. Now this course of action is looking increasingly a mistake and a dead end decision. The hoped for economic benefits seem illusive and the Iranian position looks very week and vulnerable. The position of Rouhani does not look good. He took a gamble and now it looks increasingly that this is unravelling.
As I see it the Iranians are very boxed in. The Europeans will I believe go along with the USA even if they grumble.
The EU is seeing no benefit in the long run and this as provocation to start a world war so they are not likely to do it. This would hurt their survival if they sided with Trump, a bad situation and time to throw the US Yolk off is the best bet or suffer continuous violent protests leading to overthrows.
I don’t have any special insight into these matters. I only have my own judgement. From this standpoint I see little chance that Europe will shake of the US yoke. I just can not read this into my understanding of the European mind set, and in any case they are only minor players.
My reference of yolk was same as having egg on one’s face , like an embarrassment. The EU is easy to read the people of the country are important which can influence the action of the leader at times. The threat of escalation terrifies them the most as none really want a war in earnest that would see have of Europe destroyed and dead.
Right if a war starts, it would be the EU , Iran, Russia that gets destroyed like Ww2 , and US escaped unscathed and claiming as victor as in WW2
Only if the EU initiate the war setting them as the main target with US sits their hands. The problem with that is EU don’t have the capacity to initiate the war.
in ur dreams
EU are the ones to worry about nuclear Iran than US as US is so far away.
So as usual US would not care but the European wisely does.
Same thing in Korea, it’s the South Koreans and Japan that ate afraid not the US.
See the pattern?
Gareth Porter is a good source of information on this point. He is a careful analyst. I am not able to go into all the details here. However the take away point from his work is that Iran has never had a nuclear weapons program. He wrote a book on the issue called ‘Manufactured Crisis’ . I think the tittle rather says it all. Further Ayatollah Khomeini issueda Fatwa banning such wepons in Iran. So if you think that the Iranians take Islam ceriously then that should carry some weight.
Looks like Trump unable to convince his EU allies to come on board.
Wait and see how EU will act .
Again US lose this round

Trump the Chumpanzee and his antics are always hilarious as this man is so arrogant and stubborn in thinking he can bully the rest of the world. The EU either steps up now or forever lose their relevancy in the world.
“for its appalling mistreatment of its citizens, including those imprisoned solely for exercising their right to freedom of peaceful assembly, and for censoring its own people as they stand up in protest against their government …” so, when is he going to sanction the US congress, governors and himself? Who doesn’t see this as an extension of Israeli policy?…and then there is the matter of sanctioning Iran.
“Who doesn’t see this as an extension of Israeli policy?”
US foreign policy is in itself an extension of Israeli one.
All I see now from people on our side is DENIAL. America has gone to war for FAKE NEWS reasons so many times since its formation (by a FAKE NEWS ‘revolution’). And almost every time the build up to war uses growing SANCTIONS against that target first. The sanctions are merely a sympton of INTENT.
The mainstream and fake indy media has been normalising nukes and nuclear war in an ever louder voice for the last 12 months. This is simply because Iran is to be destroyed by the so-called ‘usable’ nukes that were perfected in the 1960s – what used to be called BATTLEFIELD nukes. The small nukes were origianlly designed to be fired by cannon, for aircraft tech at the time was too primitive to be able to exploit missiles armed with small nukes.
Today, with ‘smart’ weapons, nukes bring two major advantages 1) far lighter per unit of explosion 2) bigger maximum explosion per smart missile/bomb.
With conventional bombs, the really BIG bombs are not ‘smart’ and essentially have to be dropped gravity wise. They are too heavy for modern guided methods. Not so the small nukes. With a small nuke you can use a ‘smart’ missile guidance system and still destory an entire compound (like what the Americans call a CITY BLOCK) with a single warhead. This is a game changer agaisnt an advanced nation like Iran.
Dribblers think the EU is not on board with Trump’s plan. This despite the fact that major CATHOLIC nations participated in the jewish terror state’s recent war games- war games simulating the holocausting of all muslim nations directly surrounding Israel once America began the war on Iran.
Major EU nations have built THEIR military bases in the Middle East in readiness for the Iran war across the last five years. The Iran War has been a massive exercise in logistics and planning, but now all the pieces are in place, including the political goons needed to head Australia, Canada, NZ, America, Britain, France, Germany, Italy and so many other nations of the West now fully under zionist political control.
The last piece of the puzzle is the ‘will’ of the people. It is desired by the Deep State that Humanity be the Turkey that votes for Xmas. How much effort was put into demonising Serbia before Blair’s Kosovo War, Or Iraq (with WMD) before Blair’s invasion? The Iran War dangles by the thread that is the ordinary person’s reluctance to believe the jewish controlled media this time with respect to Iran.
If Trump could, he’d press the button now and begin the Iran War. That he hasn’t shows they are waiting for something. That something can be ANYTHING that gets the job done, but the “blame Iran” meme we are seeing all across the press (including sadly at Southfront) gives the real clue. Something big is coming that will be blamed on Iran and used to kick start the war.
This is one of the reasons that the US and Palestine need to be dejudified. Jews are a parasitical disease that gravitate to control positions in a targeted host society to take it over, exploit and victimize it to the detriment of it’s people and humanity.

That’s what our Jewish Secretary of the Treasury said when he issued new Iranian sanctions? Here, fixed it for ya’, Mnuchin:
“We are targeting the Washington DC regime, including the head of the US judiciary, for its appalling mistreatment of its citizens, including those imprisoned solely for exercising their right to freedom of information and government transparency, and for censoring its own people as they stand up in protest against their government … We are also targeting the renewed U.S. military expansion program, arms sales to oppressive, racist regimes and destabilizing activities, which it continues to prioritize over the economic well-being of the American people,” Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said in a statement.
Except Rouhani would never be such an arrogant asshole that he would even presume to punish the little people of the US with sanctions because he didn’t like our leaders. That would be evil.
Who care wither USA stay or not stay make own sanctions or not.No country fears USA anymore.No one beliefs USA leaders anymore.Even the dead people hate USA
