Before the Vienna talks, German Foreign Ministry spokesman Christofer Burger told reporters in Berlin that Iran’s approach was “unacceptable” and that diplomats would make that clear at the Vienna meeting.

Funny how only Red China and the EUSSR are “world powers” according to the Dissociated Press too.

Didn’t Mossad go right into Teheran, and steal them blind, getting all kinds of intel, that said the Iranians never intended to follow this so called agreement in the first place?

Bribery didn’t work, apparently, or maybe they just weren’t trying hard enough. They’d rather see Paris and Berlin in flames than admit that Trump was right.
