Examining Iran’s non-existent nukes

WATCH put in place by the discredited previous administration are cancelled as of today. The Iranian delegation, led by deputy foreign minister Abbas Araghchi, a veteran of the 2015 talks, would reply that Iran will immediately return to compliance with all the terms of the treaty and invite United Nations inspectors to verify all its temporary deviations from treaty obligations over

replied that he “saluted” Malloy’s remarks. “We find this position realistic and promising,” he added. Two working groups have been set up that include American representatives, with the task of choreographing reciprocal moves by the United States and Iran to return to the treaty and a target of full compliance by both sides within two months. That would be just in time for Iranian moderates to claim credit for ending the U.S. sanctions a week or so before the June election. So, that’s probably sorted, but what about all the countries that actually do have nuclear weapons? Iran originally got into trouble because it signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) in 1970 and later tried to get nuclear weapons anyway, but the

countries that already had nukes when they signed the NPT have obligations, too. How are they doing? The NPT said that “nuclear-weapons states agree to . . . pursue nuclear disarmament aimed at the ultimate elimination of their nuclear arsenals.” But it has been a long pursuit and 50 years later, not one of them has actually managed to catch the damn thing. The United States has got turned around somehow and is pursuing in the wrong direction. It’s in the midst of a trillion-dollarplus upgrade of its nuclear forces, including a new generation of land-based intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) and new submarine-launched cruise missiles. According to Russian President Vladimir Putin, his country has developed
nuclear-powered cruise missiles and torpedoes with unlimited range, a hypersonic vehicle called Avangard to deliver nuclear weapons at low level and ultra-high speed and a new ultra-heavy ICBM called Sarmat able to carry even more and bigger warheads (10 to 15) over a longer range (18,000 kilometres). Then there’s France (mostly harmless, despite some 280 nuclear weapons) and China (320, but talking about expansion), plus India (150), Israel (90), North Korea (30-40) and Pakistan (160) — all countries that “unsigned’” or never signed the NPT. But at least we’re safe from Iran’s nuclear weapons, which never existed and still don’t. Gwynne Dyer’s new book is Growing Pains: The Future of Democracy (and Work).

the past three years have been reversed. And we would all live happily ever after. However, in the real world . . . The negotiators in Vienna are not even in the same hotel. All the countries still observing the treaty (China, France, Germany, Iran, Russia and the United Kingdom) are in one hotel, while the American mission is in another, with messages going back and forth between the two parties. Porcupines mate with less difficulty, but there has already been some progress. “The United States knows that, in order to get back into compliance, it’s going to have to lift those sanctions that are inconsistent with the deal that was reached with Iran,” Malloy said. Iranian government spokesman Ali Rabiei

irst, the good news. The United States and Iran had talks in Vienna on Tuesday and the nuclear deal they and all the other great powers signed in 2015 is coming back. It’s not exactly back yet. After former U.S. president Donald Trump unilaterally pulled out of the treaty in 2018 and re-imposed harsh sanctions on Iran, the Iranians retaliated by slowly deviating from their own commitments under the deal, one baby step at a time. So now there has to be agreement on a timetable for unwinding those steps, as well as cancelling the U.S. sanctions. On a better-run planet, the U.S. special envoy for Iran, Rob Malloy, would just declare all the American sanctions on Iran wrongly
