The Islamic Republic is now simultaneously holding talks with the European Union and the United States.
Last week, Iran’s top nuclear negotiator, Ali Bagheri-Kani met European Union mediator Enrique Mora in the Qatari capital Doha in an effort to revive the 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and world powers.
It takes place as Iran’s nuclear program advances beyond the requirements of nuclear energy and toward those of a bomb.
The Islamic Republic faces parliamentary elections next year, and any easing of Western sanctions could give its rulers a boost in the polls.
They had lamented being left out of the talks with Iran when world powers struck a deal with the Islamic Republic in 2015, but are now actively facilitating the dialogue.
