Hasan Rouhani's appeal to Joe Biden; Remove sanctions from Iran and return to 2015 nuclear deal

Iran's President Hassan Rouhani on Wednesday urged US-elected President-elect Joe Biden to return to the 2015 nuclear deal and lift the sanctions on the Islamic Republic. Rouhani said in a cabinet meeting on television that the ball is now in American court. If Washington returns to Iran's 2015 nuclear deal, we will also fully honor our commitments under the treaty.

During this, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani targeted the outgoing US President Donald Trump. He said that Trump's political career is over today and his 'maximum pressure' policy on Iran has completely failed. Significantly, Biden will be sworn in as the 46th President today. Earlier, the President of Iran has made this appeal to him. Relations between the two countries have been very cordial during Trump's tenure. Biden has already said that he will return to the agreement reached with Iran during Barack Obama's presidency.

Tensions between Iran and the US increased when US President Donald Trump ended the pact between Iran and the six world powers in 2018 and tried to limit Iran's nuclear program and prevent it from developing nuclear weapons. Of. Iran's economy collapsed due to sanctions imposed by the US.

Iran opposed Trump's 'maximum pressure' policy by violating the agreement's policy. Tehran has repeatedly stated that if US sanctions are lifted, it will immediately reverse these violations. Biden chose Antony Blinken as foreign minister. His statement would have disappointed Iran a little. He said on Tuesday that the US would not take a quick decision to revisit the treaty.
