Israeli diplomats traveled to Vienna to meet with negotiators involved in the indirect talks between the US and Iran to revive the nuclear deal, known as the JCPOA.
Israel is outspoken in its opposition to the negotiations, and the presence of Israeli diplomats in Vienna is sure to irk Iran. The Israeli visit comes as participants in the talks are signaling an agreement could be reached soon.
On Tuesday, the Israeli delegation met with Russia’s envoy in Vienna, Mikhail Ulyanov, and the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Rafael Grossi. On Twitter, Ulyanov said he discussed “IAEA-related issues” with the Israelis.
According to The Jerusalem Post, the Israeli delegation plans to meet with officials from all of the countries involved in the talks, except for the Iranians. Officials from the US, China, Russia, Britain, France, Germany, and the EU are in Vienna for the negotiations.
On Monday, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian said a deal could be reached soon in Vienna if the US is serious about lifting the necessary sanctions on Iran. As the latest round of talks resumed, US officials said an agreement is “in sight” but also warned time is running out.
You couldn’t make this rubbish up, seriously?
WTF are Israel doing trying to disrupt the workings of an organisation which they do not belong to?
The IAEA should tell them to FO immediately.
Hi Andy
IsraHell is there to tell AMERIKKKA what to do.
I saw the headline and wondered if Israel was going there to announce the destruction of their nukes.
Thanks John, I needed a good chuckle.
Thank goodness I had swallowed my coffee. That was hilarious!
Was Iran allowed to send diplomats to the Abraham Accords?
would they have gone if invited?
Not relevant. They weren’t invited and neither was Israel invited to be on the “sidelines” at the JCPOA talks. The point was Israel sticking their noses where they don’t belong.
Iran should leave the talks immediately because Master needs to talk to Slave on their faith….!
I don’t know about you, but I am fed up with looking around at the hunger, homelessness, joblessness, and decayed infrastructure of our nation while seeing government constantly whining about how they must take care of this neo-Nazi Israeli Regime.
I think it is time to take all the friends of Israel in government, put them on a cargo ship, and send them to this land they clearly love so much more than their own!
No government can serve two masters, and a government that serves Israel cannot, does not, and will not serve the American people. A friend of Israel is no friend of America. In these dark times, America needs leaders who will put America first, second, and third!
