Iran says ‘no step-by-step plan’ for lifting US sanctions

Step-by-step approach proposed by Iran now off the table as it says it will only accept full sanctions removal.

Tehran, Iran – Iran’s foreign ministry has said there will be “no step-by-step plan” to lift layers of American sanctions and restore the country’s 2015 nuclear deal with world powers. “The definitive policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran is the lifting of all US sanctions,” foreign ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh told state-run PressTV on Saturday. He said that includes all sanctions imposed and reimposed by former US President Donald Trump.
