tehran has responded to the eu's plan to restore the 2015 accord. sides are waiting for the u.s. so what are the final hurdles to a new agreement? this is "inside story." ♪ hello and welcome to the program. i am laura kyle. diplomats say they believe they are close to restoring the 2015 iran nuclear deal. former president donald trump pulled the u.s. out in 2018, but for the past 16 months negotiators from washington and tehran have been working with the other signatories to reestablish the accord. the european union laid down what it called it for -- its final offer earlier this month. you details have been made public. the new deal will be rolled out in four phases over two 60 day periods. sanctions will be lifted. iran will scale back its nuclear ambitions and be able to export 50 million barrels of oil a day. the eu's foreign policy chief says tehran has given a reasonable response to the proposal. he said he expects the u.s. to reply this week. >> i understand this to be the point of equilibrium, where either one side of the other can make thin

for its consistently balanced position on this matter, tehran understands russian security concernstely legal understands those motives what were our actions in response to the destabilizing policy of the us and its nato allies, we are satisfied with the results of the negotiations and agreed to continue with mr. amir abdov, abdalkhians, a regular exchange of views on all issues of mutual interest. we have a whole range of agreements that we agreed on today that will be put into practice, including, uh, the activation of new mechanisms for our external political coordination. dear mr. lavrov for his hospitality for hospitality to the minister of foreign affairs of the russian federation is very grateful. we are leaving today's talks. um, first of all, we conveyed the message of one of the leaders of the european countries and his request, which he addressed to our president, mr. reisi, regarding the situation in ukraine, there were ideas regarding the help of peace and tranquility and the cessation of hostilities in ukraine, these ideas. eh, everything. we just have mr. lavrov, we d

relevant in the future, well, in any case, i would now like to quote the ambassador of ukraine in tehran serhii a brothel who talked with colleagues from the new era, in fact he was the same they remembered these drones shahet 191 and shahraet 129 e and remembered the iranian analyst elajmandia who wrote that russia has allegedly already bought 1,000 such arant drones for which the ambassador answered that this figure does not correspond to the reality at all in order to produce a thousand drones with today's obvious technological capabilities. what are you talking about according to the calculations of military analysts and early will have to spend about 10 years? well, this figure is absolutely not true. well, it hints that the analyst is competent because he lives far outside the borders of iran, but in any case, we can also talk about other precedents of cooperation between the russian federation and iran, for example, august 9, russia launched an iranian spy satellite from baikonur, it was reported that the economy system from the eu is turning on a high-range and capable camera, an

has refused up until the final moments where the final draft does not do what tehran had wanted. more about why, because according to this very complete affidavit filed by the justice department and now unsealed, last year this plot was hatched. this man met this man online, and the man turned out to be an informant for the u.s. government and was cueing the government throughout about this plot to kill john bolton and also offering a million dollars to kill another unnamed official. >> another unnamed official. at some point do we expect to find out who that is? >> we certainly would hope so. we've reached out to the iranian government. they have not responded. we're pretty sure this was in retaliation for the american assassination in january of 2020 of the killing of salman any in bagdad because the offer was made as part of this plotted to kill john bolton before the anniversary. the whole point was to kill him before the anniversary of soleimani's death according to this affidavit. they've got a lot of evidence here in this charging document. getting him and finding him in t

west the basis of sergei lavrov at a meeting with his colleague from tehran. what are the heads of the country's diplomacy discussing? what is the situation with forest fires in different regions of russia? why is the ministry of emergency situations again strengthening the grouping of the british region? the gunners detained in energodar gave ukraine the coordinates of objects around the zaporozhye nuclear power plant, they themselves told the agency about this. ria novosti is talking, for example, about the exact location of the military vehicles of the training center and the pool, the cooling systems of the station, one of the gunners managed to transfer the coordinates of more than 10 targets to the sbu, and the detention of two. uh, the artillery gunners of the ukrainian troops in energodar were previously reported to the ministry of internal affairs of the zaporozhye region. both of the detainees worked at the nuclear power plant, they themselves lived in this city, one of the detainees worked at the station as a security guard.

i'm not very fond of playing in tehran right now, because, um, it's kind of difficult to-- you know, for getting permissions, things like that, and i don't think it's time for music. it's time for musicians to be a part of the population and be there with them. uh, living in iran, there is no choice, but, um, becoming political. it's nice to be here at this moment, especially now that we're experiencing these social changes, i hope for the good. sometimes it's hard to see that, because young people are involved in it, and they sacrifice a lot, and sometimes they sacrifice their lives. the whole society wants to change what they have, and how this change takes place is very important. i want to live here while it happens. i want to be a part of it. [kamancheh playing] [tombak playing] can you cut the rigger and--and-- >> do you have a pre-show ritual? something that you normally do, or... >> not really. try to, um, talk less. try to think of nothing and--and just make my mind really blank. [laughs] as much as that's possible. >> do you have a prayer? do you have...? >> prayer, yes i h

at this time we're told tehran is making that critical decision.otiators, u.s., iranian have agreed on the final draft. it's up to the political leadership in iran. this could blow that up. >> i think going back into this deal is delusional. the original deal was bad. iran should never have been permitted to enrich you are rain uranium at all. the deal has notgotten better. the united states has been on its knees, making one concession after another. it endangers american security to go into this deal. the white house says, over here is the good negotiations on the iran nuclear deal. over here is the bad terrorism sort of thing. the minds of the leadership in iran are not compartmentalized. these are instruments of iranian power. their commitments are not worth the paper they are printed on. our friends and allies, israel, saudi arabia, bahrain, united arab emirates and others, know what the iranian threat is and terrorism and nuclear, two sides of the same coin. >> there are others -- i interviews david petraeus who said as bad as the other threat

that is, i think, is going to send a signal to tehran.h restraints on israel as we have now put in place. at least to send a reminder to the ayatollahs that military action is possible. everything right now is exceedingly dangerous. but i think the most dangerous course of action, boris, is to continue with policies that put us into this situation in the first place. i'm not saying that anything will work at this late date, but to do what we have continued to do -- continued to do what we have done is i think just madness. >> gordon, not going to lie to you, i leave this conversation a little bit unsettled. i do appreciate your time and your insight, thanks so much, gordon chang. >> thank you, boris. >> of course. >>> coming up, nearly decade old crime in mexico back in the spotlight. what a new report revealed about the violent abduction of dozens of students. that's next. it's time for the biggest sale of the year, on the sleep number 360 smart bed. why choose proven quality sleep from sleep number? because proven quality sleep is vital

the future of the deal now lies in tehran and washington. the deal was percent in 2015 but president trump unilaterally withdrew the united states in 2018. when president biden took office, he ignored calls to rejoin the deal via executive order. instead, he kept sanctions on iran in place while the deal was renegotiated. this all comes as tensions remain high between the united states and iran. on wednesday, the justice department charged a member of iran's islamic revolutionary guard corps with plotting to assassinate trump's former national security advisor john bolton as retaliation for the u.s. assassination of qassim suleimani, the top commander of the revolutionary guards. we go now to trita parsi, the executive vice president of the quincy institute for responsible statecraft, who has been following the iran nuclear negotiations closely. he recently wrote an article for msnbc headlined "biden already has two foreign crises on his hands. it's not too late for him to avoid a third." trita paris is also the several books, including "los

hope this is the first step to regime change in tehran. and after today's news, bolton thanked the justice department, the fbi, and the secret service and said that iran's rulers are liars, terrorists and enemies of the united states. the suspect has not been arrested but is wanted by the fbi after seeking to carry out this plot. >> this was not an idle threat, and this is not the first time we uncovered brazen acts by iran to exact revenge against individuals on u.s. soils. >> reporter: the plot against bolton is just the latest allegation of iran planning attacks on u.s. soil. in 2011, u.s. authorities said iran was planning to bomb a d.c. restaurant to kill then saudi ambassador to the united states and current saudi minister of state for foreign affairs. >> this is happening in america. >> reporter: and just last week, iran beyond journalist and activist massi, a u.s. citizen who lives in new york blamed the iranian regime after a man carrying an assault rifle was arrested in her neighborhood. coming a year after authorities say the re

>> well, there's a growing chorus of voices in tehran that feel that the only way for them to have the leverage to be able to negotiate a sustained deal that they can trust with washington and with other world powers is to increase their status from having a very rich nuclear program to one of a nuclear threshold state. perhaps even getting a nuclear weapon. unfortunately, that would be extremely risky for the entire global security architecture because it would probably incite some sort of a military conflict in the region, particularly with israel. we really do need to get washington and tehran to agree to the roadmap that was already largely decided in march of this year. both sides are dragging their feet on it. washington has to make up for the fact that it was indeed the u.s. aggregation of the deal under president trump that cause this trust deficit in the first place. iran continue to comply with the deal for an entire year before gradually reducing its implementation. of course, we also now had president biden coming into office and dragging his feet for a number of months. no

this stronger relationship between russia, iran and turkey that was on show there at the summit in tehran. will that deliver the benefits that this very isolated russian president needs? well, you know, it was very interesting to see that in fact the roles are now reversed because now iran is the strong partner. it's no longer russia. and that is of course humiliating for russia and the same thing will happen with china is china again is much stronger than russia. so what you could see there is that russia is losing its status as a superpower because it exhausts itself in the ukraine, it is not going to win this war, it will be a poor state of afterwards. and that was on show in at this meeting. now looking at turkey, i think that for erdogan the u. s. in fact is more important than russia, the whole safety of turkey basis in the end on the support of the united states. but of course, you know what erdogan tries to do is to somehow yeah be an independent power between russia and the course, you know what erdogan tries to do is to united states to get some leverage points there. and of cou
