Tehran will not renegotiate the terms of the 2015 nuclear deal with the next US president, an Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson told a press conference on Monday.
“The Islamic Republic of Iran has repeatedly stated that the JCPOA [Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action] is a thing of the past and that it can’t be reopened by anyone," said Saeed Khatibzadeh, adding that Iran "does not change its policy with the coming and going of anyone."
"There are three important changes that must happen, otherwise there won’t be any change. A change in thinking and mentality of the US decision-makers, a change in speech and the way the US talks to the world and the great nation of Iran, and then taking the right steps back from the wrong path and compensating for the past. We are monitoring closely. It is too early to say what will happen in the future,” said Khatibzadeh.
US President-Elect Joe Biden was vice-president when the nuclear deal was struck. He recently said the US could rejoin the accord if Iran returns to compliance with it.
