Before nuclear deadline expires, "polite" European claims and "provocative" Iranian threats

In a demand that was not the first and will not be the last, many European countries appealed to international organizations to stop abuses by the mullahs regime because of its possession of nuclear weapons, with the aim of preventing Iran from possessing this type of weapon, and imposing restrictions on it to reduce its violations of the Iranian nuclear agreement.

But on the other side it is dealing with these demands - in a friendly and polite way so far - by making more threats to demonstrate its nuclear power, and to avoid any sanctions that these countries may seek to impose.

European and Arab warnings

This came in the context of the meeting of the First Committee of the General Assembly of the United Nations at the seventy-fourth session on Wednesday, 23 October; where representatives of France, Switzerland and Singapore warned of the violation of the Iranian mullahs regime of the nuclear agreement, demanding not to allow this regime to possess nuclear weapons at all, and stressed the need that Iran's cooperation with the IAEA is full as it should be.

Representatives of these countries have called on the mullahs' regime to comply fully with this agreement and to stop actions that violate its obligations under the nuclear agreement.

Negotiations have been called for to discuss this matter, not only to impose long-term restrictions on Iran's nuclear program but also because it violates Security Council resolutions.

There are European and Arab fears of the steps taken by the mullahs regime to develop its nuclear capabilities. Therefore, on October 16, representatives of Italy, Sweden and Kuwait took a stand against the Iranian regime during the session of the UN General Assembly. Its neighbors, confirmed their willingness to help launch initiatives to de-escalate the current situation and restore the correct status of the nuclear agreement.

Iranian threat

The European warnings to Iran were launched at this time because of the near-term expiration of the implementation of the fourth phase of the reduction of Tehran's nuclear obligations, of international importance, because it could lead to the withdrawal of Europeans from the nuclear agreement, if this step is primarily aimed at scaling up pressure on the Europeans.

This was confirmed by Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif on October 20 on the sidelines of the Conference on "Unilateralism and International Laws" held in Tehran, pointing out that Iran has not yet decided the nature of the fourth step to reduce nuclear obligations.

The Iranian minister added that his country would take the fourth step if the Europeans were unable to implement their commitments on time.
