#BREAKING In a Thursday phone call with Iran FM @Amirabdolahian , EU Foreign Policy Chief @JosepBorrellF said #ViennaTalks are in a critical point, & now Iran & US must show more flexibility in exchange of messages & try to overcome the time limit, according to @IRIMFA's account.
@Amirabdolahian @JosepBorrellF @IRIMFA Borrell has said economic guarantees are important to Iran, and EU supports realization of Iran’s demand for guarantee.
“You Iranians are tough & competent negotiators,” @IRIMFA has quoted Borrell as saying.

#ViennaTalks
@Amirabdolahian @JosepBorrellF @IRIMFA Iran FM, in turn, said “the US’ move to make new requests is not logically justifiable and contradicts its desire for reaching a deal as soon as possible.”
He said effective lifting of bans shouldn’t be influenced by US excessive demands.

Thread: Iran's Foreign Minister @Amirabdolahian, who arrived in Doha on Monday evening after a visit to Muscat, told @AJArabic that "at this stage of #ViennaTalks Iran demands removal of JCPOA sanctions, but later on, we will definitely consider the lifting of all sanctions."
@Amirabdolahian @AJArabic Iran FM: Other parties to #ViennaTalks believe Iran shouldn't demand removal of all sanctions imposed by Trump after leaving JCPOA & rather want us to demand lifting of bans damaging JCPOA. That's a complication of talks. We blame it on lack of US serious will to reach good deal
@Amirabdolahian @AJArabic Iran FM on what's meant by guarantee:
1. No new bans are imposed
2. Lifted bans aren't reinstated on other pretexts like a law passed by Congress
3. Snapback is an issue, as it lets other parties to stop living up to commitments whenever they like with just a political decision

In a new interview with Walla, head of #Israel's @IDF Military Intelligence Tamir Hayman says, “There is an enriched amount in volumes that we have not seen before and it is disturbing. At the same time, in all other aspects of the #Iran nuclear project, we see no progress." 1/7
“Not in the weapons project, in the financial area, not in any other sector. Therefore the period of time that still remains of two years has not changed. Because even from the moment you have a breakout, there is still a long way to go before a bomb,” he said. 2/7
“To the best of our knowledge, the directive has not changed and they are not heading toward a breakout. They are not heading toward a bomb right now: It may be in the distant future," Hayman added. 3/7
