France to host European-US talks on saving Iran nuclear deal
France24 ^ | February 18, 2021

French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian will host his German and British counterparts in Paris, with America's new top diplomat Antony Blinken joining via videoconference, the French foreign ministry said Wednesday.

Highlighting the tough path ahead, German Chancellor Angela Merkel voiced "concern" that Iran was failing to meet its obligations in telephone talks with President Hassan Rouhani, her spokesman said in a statement.

Analysts say only a small window of opportunity remains to save the landmark deal, which received a near-fatal blow when former US president Donald Trump walked out of the accord in 2018.

The administration of Joe Biden has said it is prepared to rejoin the deal and start lifting sanctions if Iran returns to full compliance, a precondition disputed by Tehran.

Adding to the tension, Iran plans to restrict some UN nuclear agency inspections if the US does not lift its sanctions -- imposed since 2018 -- by February 21, under the terms of a bill adopted by its parliament in December.

International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) chief Rafael Grossi is to travel to Tehran on Saturday for talks with the Iranian authorities to find a solution for continuing inspections in the country, the agency said.

It warned that the step threatened by Tehran would have "a serious impact on the IAEA's verification and monitoring activities in the country."

Most of Europe is reverting back to its old antisemitic ways. And the Byedone gang will be a very good participant.

Remember Obama saying that the US could "absorb" a terrorist attack?

The leaders are protected. Gov't is hardened. Only the citizenry pay the price of terrorist attacks and would be the most impacted by a nuclear attack.

The more devastating the attack, the more the swamp can consolidate power, re-write the constitution and ensure their wealth going forward.

I remember back around 2003 there were a ton of Nostradamus posts on the internet regarding his quatrains about the end times.

There was one lady who was supposedly gifted at interpreting his quatrains and she said that the US would be hit with a nuclear attack and though we received terrible damage the attacker would be annihilated.

Supposedly, we weren’t the ones who retaliated though. She said, that for some reason the US would be upset with and blame France and, in an effort to heal relations between France and the US, the US insisted on France retaliating for us and they did.

I have searched for this information, recently and haven’t been able to locate it again.

People are idiots if they think they can “negotiate” with the present Iranian regime.
