Iran's President Signals Desire to Re‑engage in June US Deal

President Ebrahim Raisi announced that Tehran is prepared to return to the nuclear agreement framework that was revived in June, following the U.S. and Israel‑led attacks on Iranian targets in February. The statement was issued amid stalled diplomatic talks that have seen the U.S. impose new sanctions and the Iranian regime tighten its stance. By expressing willingness to re‑engage, Raisi aims to signal a shift toward dialogue and potentially ease the economic pressure on Iran. U.S. officials have indicated that while they are open to discussions, any lifting of sanctions would require concrete steps toward compliance with the original agreement.
