Iran has provided its views to the European Union on the bloc's latest proposal to salvage the landmark nuclear agreement, a source in the Iranian negotiating team told Al-Monitor. 

The EU, which has mediated some 16 months of indirect talks between Washington and Tehran, put forward a “final text” on Aug. 8 to revive the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). The Biden administration has said it’s ready to quickly conclude a deal based on the EU's proposed text.
