Kambiz Tawana, an editorial board member of Iran International, said that recent statements by US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant show that Washington is no longer seeking an agreement similar to the previous negotiations with the Islamic Republic. According to him, America now expects the Islamic Republic to take seven specific steps before any new negotiations to show its readiness for an agreement.
Tawana added that Scott Bessant, after Donald Trump, plays a major role in putting pressure on the Islamic Republic, and the US military also participates in the implementation of the sanctions. He emphasized that in the current situation, Washington is focused on continuing the economic and military pressure, and until the Islamic Republic takes practical steps, there will be no change in this approach.
