Logoglu talks of possible US goals to push Iran issue in UNSC

The US aims to activate a "snapback" mechanism in the 2015 Iran nuclear deal that would restore international sanctions on Iran. The move escalates a dispute between the US and other members of the UN security council.

The United States demands the United Nations Security Council to activate the "snapback" mechanism of the JCPOA to reimpose all sanctions against Iran, while other parties to the deal believe that the US is not allowed to resort to this mechanism because it is not a party to the JCPOA anymore since the country left it in May 2018.

Donald Trump is doing his best to activate the mechanism just a couple of days after his failure in the UNSC to extend Iran's arms embargo.

To know more about the issue we reached out to Dr. Osman Faruk Logoglu, senior member of Turkey's CHP and veteran politician. 

Here is the text of the interview with him:

How do you assess the US move to reimpose UN sanctions on Iran by activating snapback mechanism of the JCPOA, despite unanimous opposition from other UNSC members and considering the fact that the US has already left the JCPOA ?
