Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif wrote didn't rule out that his country would come back to the negotiating table with the United States if Washington sticks to the 2015 nuclear pact.
Zarif presented a short list of the rightful demands of the Iranian people from the US government.
"If the US government summons the courage to renounce these policies in words and deeds, its global isolation will end," Zarif wrote in the article for the Iran Daily news website, entitled 'US foreign policy in crisis'. "A new image of the US will emerge in the world, including in Iran, paving the path to joint efforts for security, stability, and inclusive sustainable development," the article says.
Zarif said the ultimatum was a "desperate reaction" and an attempt to justify Washington’s unilateral withdrawal from world powers’ nuclear agreement with Iran.
The diplomat suggested the Trump administration should cease treaty violations, "economic aggression" against Iran and acknowledge regional meddling.
On May 21, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo set 12 conditions for Iran to follow in order for the United States to agree to a new nuclear deal with Tehran.
