EU Unveils Draft Proposal to Revive 2015 Iran Nuclear Deal

HeadlineAug 09, 2022

European Union negotiators have put forward a final draft text of a document that would restore the 2015 Iran nuclear deal. President Trump unilaterally pulled the United States from the landmark agreement in 2018, prompting Iran to expand its nuclear activities. On Monday, U.S. and Iranian negotiators wrapped up talks in Vienna, Austria, with a proposal that would see Iran halt the enrichment of some nuclear materials in exchange for relief from sanctions. Negotiations had remained stalled for months, in part due to President Biden’s decision to keep Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on a terrorist blacklist.
