Iran's top diplomat presses efforts to save nuclear deal

Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, left, and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, right, speak at Abe's official residence in Tokyo Thursday, May 16, 2019. Iran’s foreign minister has said his country is committed to an international nuclear deal and criticized escalating U.S. sanctions “unacceptable” as he met with Japanese officials in Tokyo amid rising tensions in the Middle East.

Concerns about a possible conflict have flared since the White House ordered warships and bombers to the region to counter an alleged, unexplained threat from Iran that has seen America order nonessential diplomatic staff out of Iraq. Saudi Arabia directly blamed Iran for the drone assault, and a local newspaper linked to the Al Saud royal family called on Thursday for America to launch “surgical strikes” on Tehran.

Trump is not right on pulling out of Iran Treaty. He did this because of Obama revenge and he is 'taking care of everything.' TrumpRussia ImpeachTrump ImpeachBarr

They want to get paid for not making a nuke,then they use the money to buy missals...the Iran deal isn’t worth the paper it’s written on..they’ll make billions of dollars for 10yrs and then have a nuclear weapon. WTF is that? John Kerry,and obama are both morons cnn

Didn't you get the memo? Nuclear deal is dead Brah

Negotiating with Iran ,is like negotiating with the mobb.

Fuck if Iran seduces Japan i dont mind North Korea having its way with her.

Why is me not wearing that dumba$$ rag around his head?

Trump is the biggest loser on Earth. All he had to do was leave the IranDeal alone! Nooooo, he pulls out! ImpeachTheMF

So China & Russia? Two noble up and coming World Powers? By concrete action? Meaning military support? Just curious. Also Time2UpOvertimePay to TimeAnd3Quarters

No one cares what these terrorist have to say

Bawaaahaaa! Trump's gonna tell Iran to go fish.

The foreign minister is setting the stage for the USA to be blamed when Iran completely pulls out of the Iran deal.

Let it Die...as Iran will lose Billions. It was a Criminal deal to start with UraniumOne

PrincessBravato EU nations and Iran are right to save the nuclear deal. It was working and beneficial to all. Trump cancelled it because his base wanted a villain. Trump never knew what it was about.

Why would we want to save this horrid 'deal' that guarantees Iran will get nuclear bombs?

NoWarWithIran

junk it

Just going 2 wait for these 4 guys 2 appear

Totally!

Diplomatic efforts? There’s NOTHING diplomatic abt Iran so plz save this bs

So you’re saying the US strategy is working?

This illustrates the sad state of our world diplomatic position. In a misguided attempt to resurrect the “America first” debacle of the 1930’s, our current administration is systematically turning its back on the world. News flash: the world will keep right on turning without us.

How noble

Is crisis real or a Trump business deal with Saudi's? Coincidence that Kushner made business deal with Saudi's; Saudi's hates Iran, Trump tears nuclear deal, Bolton always hated Iran. Are we sending our troops to fight for a golf course?

Of course. They control the inspections... it’s a joke and does not prevent them from getting weapons.

The only reason Trump destroyed the deal was because Obama came up with it. And now he wants a war because during a war a president's poll numbers go up. Of course if Americans die, as in Bush's fake war, then who cares?

Trump cannot have my children for his fake war effort with Iran. We see what he is doing, he cannot distract us from his conspiracy with Russia.

The nuke deal was always about the U.S. and EU nations shoveling money into Iran to rent Iran's restraint, for 10 years only, in developing deliverable nuclear weapons. Iran, for it's part, is trying to get the money for as long as they don't actually have the deliverable nuke.
