Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian assured that Tehran’s actions will be in accordance with the responses of the other signatories, namely the United Kingdom, France, Russia, China and Germany.

The next round of negotiations is scheduled for mid-November and Iran will attend after its authorities conclude the review of the previous agreement.

According to Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh, the newly installed government of President Ebrahim Raisi is analyzing the deficiencies and characteristics of what was dealt with by the previous cabinet.

Since April, Tehran has been holding talks in Vienna, Austria, with the other signatories of the JCPOA to find a way so that Washington can return to the pact.

US President Joe Biden promised during his presidential campaign that his country would return to the deal, however, so far, he maintains the maximum pressure policy adopted by his predecessor, Donald Trump, with the aim of rewriting the treaty.
