11:19 am
coming days of certain issues. the resolved reports say one of those is removing a rounds. revolutionary guards offer us terrorism list. we've been clear about what a return to mutual compliance with the g p a would look like. there are issues that the iranians have put on the table that are clearly extraneous to the 4 corners of the gcs away. every time they have done that, we have made very clear that the jcp away is about one thing and one thing only, it's about a runs nuclear program and we're prepared to negotiate one thing. and one thing moment. well, powers have been trying to salvage the iran nuclear deal known as the j. c. p. o way. iran signed the agreement in 2015. it was designed to limit to ron's nuclear ambitions in exchange for sanctions relief. but in may, 2018 then president donald trump withdrew the us and began re imposing sanctions. a
11:20 am
year later, iran started ramping up its nuclear program. it reduced access to monitors from the us nuclear watchdog. increasing tensions with the u. s. negotiations resumed in april last year, under the bible administration, and the european union has put forward what it called a final text during all science, the sign onto a nuclear to a deal. garris. the mall is from brandeis university. he says if the current draft agreement fails, the us will likely increase its demands. unfortunately, it appears to me that iran is not willing to. ready accept the text that the e u has put forward. as far as i can tell from the rest reporting it, ron has attached some additional conditions and demands that it wants to be met. and if iran is not prepared to accept the new text, i imagine that us will probably also have some changes that would like to say has
11:21 am
iran has raised 3 separate issues, which the u. s. considers to be extraneous to the text. first, iran wants sanctions lifted on the i, r g c or companies associated with the i r g c. second, iraq want some guarantees that even after the president biden leaves, the white house, you west will continue to honor the agreement. and 3rd, iran wants the i e, a investigation in to past nuclear activities to the end. and as i said, the u. s. considers each of these to be extraneous to the agreement and is not prepared to accept any of. so i think it's very much an america's interest to revive the j. c. p. away. i think it's in your ron's interest as well. so i don't quite understand why is supreme leader hon. luke continues to procrastinate. whether it's
11:22 am
just bargaining tactics or whether he prefers to hang onto it ra, a iran enriched uranium, even if it costs iran, tremendous loss of opportunity in terms of oil revenues. a new dedication has arrived on a visit to garza where members will visit the shipper hospital and assess the condition of health care. the group has signed an agreement with the un relief agency for palestinian refugees. gymnast saint is live in garza so what kind of assistance of extending yes, sad me is. so in last march actually the you are. the european union had pledged $206.00 to $1000000.00 to support palace, senior refugees in the 5 fields of operation to day to stay there, hearing garza to sign this agreement of support. of course, you know, a more than a 200300000. 2.3000000 of policy refugees in garza alone
