#USA and #EU have two months left:
Iran's National Security Council approved the bill confirmed by the Majlis Shoura (Parliament) to increase the nuclear enrichment program and limit cooperation with IAEA inspectors @JoeBiden has little time to play around with #Iran.

This is a real challenge to the new #US administration (I don't include Europe because it just follows). Either lift all illegal sanctions imposed on #Iran or accepts the fact that #Iran shuts its doors and go full nuclear capability beyond 20%. No space for games here.

#US is proposing to include #Emirates & #SaudiArabia in the negotiation. #Iran won't mind having both countries around the table, all opposite #Tehran (so there is some balance & all enemies of Iran are gathered in one place) in a new negotiation on the ME power distribution.

No further negotiation over the 2015 nuclear deal that took 10 years to conclude. No negotiations over the missiles either. It serves for #Iran's defensive program. Iran would be happy to talk about #Yemen, #Iraq, #Syria #Lebanon and #Afghanistan to improve regional security.

#Iran understands, out of 41 years of experience in sanctions and in dealing with the #US, that flexibility in front of a superpower is not an option.

The US considers Iran as an enemy that is offering the example to other nations to stand to the US dominance.

#Iran believes that the @JoeBiden admin will only be more diplomatic & less embarrassing than @realDonaldTrump administration. The change is in the form not in the performance towards those who resist the #US dominance.

It is time for Iranian moderate negotiators to step aside.
