A Narrative of Two and a Half Years of Iran-U.S. Nuclear Negotiations
The latest news regarding the JCPOA indicates that Iran and the U.S. are engaging in discussions about conditions for a potential withdrawal of a future hardline U.S. administration from the agreement, and are brainstorming solutions to address this possible issue. A two and a half year period has been proposed during which companies collaborating with Iran would be exempt from sanctions if a hardline U.S. government exits the JCPOA. The U.S. agrees with this idea and has stipulated that Iran must fully comply with the agreement. This interaction is considered very valuable.
