Zionists carries stick, US carries carrot
Iran' negotiation team must be cautious

The United States and the Zionist regime pursue the policy of 'carrot and stick' towards Iran, as the US officials shows their peaceful approach to rejoin the nuclear deal and the Zionist regime has increased its aggressive actions against Iran.

Qodsna (Tehran) - As the talks on Iran’s nuclear deal are underway in Vienna between Tehran and 4+1 signatories of the deal, several developments have occurred concerning Iran-Zionist regime regional tensions. The recent attack on the Iranian Saviz ship and the sabotage attack in the Natanz nuclear plant are among the ones that highlight the role of Zionists. On the other hand, Zionists seek to induce that every incident in Iran or across the region, such as the demise of the deputy commander of its Quds force, Brigadier General Seyyed Mohammad Hejazi, is the result of their operations. While Iran is planning to retaliate against the Zionist regime, political experts argue that the Zionist regime will face the continuation of these punitive measures by Iran in various dimensions.
 
Therefore, it is important Iran’s negotiation team in Vienna pay attention to some points at the moment.
 
Concurrently with the above-mentioned attacks, the US administration underlines its position towards the Middle East and its plans to re-enter the nuclear deal to induce that Biden’s government is upset with the recent aggressive positions taken by the Zionist regime. In the middle of these back-and-forths, Israeli outlets highly cover the reactions of US officials to Israel’s threats against Iran.
 
Besides, there are some reports about the internal disagreement between Zionist officials about recent threats and attacks, claiming that the recent actions were not a result of a consensus but the personal order of Benyamin Netanyahu. At the same time, all Zionist officials claim that they disagree with the ongoing negotiations in Vienna.
 
It is widely believed that while the Zionist regime shows its complete opposition to Iran’s nuclear deal, it strongly calls for the continuation of talks, and in fact, the Zionist regime desires a new agreement between Iran and Western countries, which would include wider restriction over Iran’s nuclear activities, Iran’s ballistic missiles program, and Iran’s regional influence. It seems that the Zionist regime along with the full coordination with the US government has started a series of actions against Iran’s regional interests to compel the Iranian government to sign a deal in line with the demands of Israel, the United States, and their allies.
 
Currently, the stick is in the hand of Zionists and US officials carry the carrot to create a tense situation for Iran. Iran’s negotiation team in Vienna should be vigilant to defend and secure Iran’s national interests, which are defined in the mandate of Iran’ Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who said Tehran would only return to compliance if the US first lifted all economic sanctions.​
