US move to waive sanctions on Iran
The US State Department is waiving sanctions on Iran's civilian nuclear program in a technical step necessary to return to the 2015 nuclear agreement, a senior official said on Friday.
 
"Absent this sanctions waiver, detailed technical discussions with third parties regarding disposition of stockpiles and other activities of nonproliferation value cannot take place," the official said, insisting on anonymity.
 
The spokesman for the Iranian ministry of foreign affairs said: "Naturally, the Islamic Republic of Iran is waiting for the United States to fulfill its duties and obligations regarding the lifting of sanctions in the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA)."
 
Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh said: "What the United States must do is lift all sanctions, including the nuclear issue."
 
He added: "The news we hear today is about some dimensions of lifting the nuclear sanctions, and everyone knows that this is not enough."
 
Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman said: "Naturally, any action that is in the right direction of fulfilling JCPOA's obligations will be carefully considered by Tehran."
 
After weeks of intensive diplomatic consultations, the eighth round of Vienna negotiations to remove the unlawful sanctions, which had been begun on December 27, 2021, was entered a break on Friday, January 28, making political decisions.
