Iran and the remaining members of the nuclear deal plan on meeting in Vienna this week to save the 2015 accord, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). The decision to meet face to face was made after the original members minus the United States held a virtual meeting. Representatives of the United States and Iran will reportedly be in the same location, though they will not meet face to face. But it is a positive sign that all parties are interested in resolving the stand-off.
While many observers took this news as a positive step that Iran would return to full compliance with the nuclear deal and the United States would reenter the deal and remove sanctions on Iran, Iranian officials are attempting to temper expectations for this first move.
