Despite their protest and defiance in public, the European leaders could finally cave into the demands of the Trump administration with regard to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), better known as Iran Nuclear Agreement.
The United States would be dispatching a team of diplomats to Brussels next week to discuss the JCPOA and point out the changes demanded by the Trump administration to the European counterparts. The U.S. Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, who is already in Europe confirmed the report of diplomats traveling to Europe. He said, “We have a team traveling - actually, they're coming to Europe….how we can address these flaws in the nuclear agreement ... but also how can we cooperate more on countering Iran's activities that are not related to their nuclear program. Our concerns about their arms exports to Yemen and elsewhere.
On Monday, Tillerson met with his British counterpart Boris Johnson, the UK Prime Minister Theresa May, and National Security Adviser Mark Sedwill. According to Mr. Tillerson, they all agreed to set up a team to fix the alleged flaws in the JCPOA. He also added that three key European allies also believe in addressing some of the issues raised by the United States, “I think there’s a common view among the E3 (France, Germany and the UK) that there are some areas of the [nuclear deal] or some areas of Iran’s behavior that should be addressed”.
President Trump has been a fierce critique of the JCPOA and in October he refused to certify Iran’s compliance with the agreement and earlier this month, when he signed the sanctions waiver on Iran, it was informed that the President, who needs to sign the waiver every 120 days, is signing it for the last time, which gives the concerned parties a 120-day window to re-negotiate the deal or parts of it.
