The speaker of the Iranian government spoke about the conditions for the Eurotroika's waiver of sanctions

The countries of the "Eurotroika" (Great Britain, Germany and France) are demanding that Iran hold direct talks with the United States in order to refuse to renew the sanctions of the UN Security Council (SC). This was announced on September 2 by the representative of the Government of the Islamic Republic, Fatemeh Mohajerani, during a briefing.

"They (European countries. — Ed.) they want us to negotiate directly with a country that itself withdrew from the treaty (the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, signed in 2015 by the United States, Russia, China and the Eurotroika. — Ed.)," TASS quoted her as saying.

Mohajerani called this condition strange and illegal.
