On December 8, a former adviser to the commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), Hossein Taeb, said that the United States was now asking Tehran to resume talks on reviving the JCPOA after the failure of its attempt to overthrow the Iranian government. The latest round of talks on the restoration of the JCPOA took place in Doha on June 29-30. After the representatives of the countries concerned returned to their capitals, the dialogue on this subject was suspended. The JCPOA was negotiated between Iran and the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council plus Germany (P5+1) on July 14, 2015. In May 2018, the United States unilaterally withdrew from the JCPOA, claiming that Iran had violated the agreement by developing nuclear weapons in secret. In response, Iran suspended parts of the deal, demanding the lifting of US sanctions. In September, a wave of protests against the current Iranian government erupted across the country. Riots were sparked by reports of the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini, who had been arrested by vice squad for improperly wearing a hijab. According to social media posts, she was beaten to death by police officers. Government officials have denied all allegations, stating that Amini had suffered a heart attack. Iranian authorities accuse the United States and other Western countries of supporting the riots and calling for the overthrow of the government. Rioters systematically attack state security forces, including the IRGC, Tehran said.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) – There is still a slight hope for the revival of the dialogue on the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), also known as the Iran nuclear agreement, the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Rafael Grossi.
On December 8, a former adviser to the commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), Hossein Taeb, said that the United States was now asking Tehran to resume talks on reviving the JCPOA after the failure of its attempt to overthrow the Iranian government. .
“What can be said is that the JCPOA, or what is left of it, has become, in practice, irrelevant. It will have to be revived, and I think there may be still a glimmer of hope that it can be done, although it is in the hands of those who negotiate,” Grossi said in an interview with Al Jazeera.
The latest round of talks on the restoration of the JCPOA took place in Doha on June 29-30. After the representatives of the countries concerned returned to their capitals, the dialogue on this subject was suspended.
