As Lazy Joe Biden heads back to Delaware for another vacation, the question has to be asked. Why the hell does Russia have a seat at the table over the Iran nuke deal, or JCPOA? It’s bad enough that Biden is even considering putting us back in that joke of a deal made by Obama cronies. But the Russians have a say in it too? WTF? Want to know why Biden wouldn’t ban the imports of Russian oil? Look no further than this.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Saturday that Moscow is demanding guarantees from the US before backing the Iran nuclear deal, citing the current wave of Western sanctions against Russia.
Lavrov said that the nuclear talks have covered most issues and “from our point of view, if Iran agrees, this document can already be launched into the acceptance process.”
But he added that there are “problems that have appeared recently from the point of view of Russia’s interests,” due to concerns over the terms of the deal concerning Moscow’s involvement in the civilian nuclear sector in Iran and arms sales to Tehran.
Lavrov cited the “avalanche of aggressive sanctions that the West has started spewing out, which hasn’t ended as far as I understand,” over the Ukraine conflict.
He said this meant Moscow had to ask the US for guarantees first, requiring a “clear answer” that the new sanctions will not affect its rights under the nuclear deal.
