Vienna talks resume to restore Iran nuclear deal

(28 Feb 2022) Talks to restore a 2015 landmark deal on the Iranian nuclear programme resumed on Monday afternoon.
Iran's chief negotiator Ali Bagheri Kani returned to Vienna after consultations with his government in Tehran over the weekend.
Earlier this month, the Biden administration restored some sanctions relief to Iran's atomic program as talks aimed at salvaging the languishing 2015 nuclear deal entered a critical phase.
The waivers are ultimately intended to entice Iran back to the 2015 deal that it has been violating since former US President Donald Trump withdrew from the agreement in 2018 and reimposed U.S. sanctions.
In the short term, the waivers will exempt foreign countries and companies that work in Iran's civilian nuclear sector from American penalties.
