A few days after EU’s foreign policy chief Josep Borrell presented the United States and Iran with a new proposal to salvage the tattered 2015 nuclear deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), Iran appears ready to talk.

“We shared our proposed ideas, both on substance & form, to pave the way for a swift conclusion of Vienna negotiations” tweeted Iran’s top nuclear negotiator Ali Bagheri Kani on Sunday, adding that this is aimed at “fixing the damaging complicated situation caused by the U.S. unilateral & unlawful withdrawal.”
