In 2018, however, it was torpedoed by the US under then-President Donald Trump, who withdrew from the agreement unilaterally, saying it was fundamentally flawed. As a result, Iran started gradually reducing some of its commitments under the agreement, such as the level of enriched uranium it produces, which could potentially enable Tehran to build an atomic bomb.
According to the Iranian authorities, however, this "is not on the agenda."
The new round of negotiations to lift US sanctions against Iran started on August 4 in Vienna and ended on August 8.
In this round of negotiations, several proposals were made by Enrique Mora, the coordinator of the European Union, in the Vienna talks.
Most of the countries participating in the talks want to wrap up the negotiation faster, but reaching a final agreement is pending the political decisions of the United States regarding some remaining important and key issues.
Mohammad Eslami, head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization, told reporters in Khorramabad on Monday: "The basis of the JCPOA negotiations was to repel accusations and eliminate excuses from the enemies who are constantly publishing fake news and documents against Iran."
The head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran said that the negotiations' goal is to lift the sanctions permanently.
