US continues to squeeze Iran with sanctions
The US statement to the UN nuclear watchdog board meeting says:
- Iran's expansion of nuclear program is attempt to extort payments from the international community
- brinkmanship and extortion tactics will not bring Iran sanctions relief
- the path the regime is now on will only deepen its international isolation and raise the dangers it faces
- US remains open to talks with Iran without preconditions, offering possibility of a full normalization of relations
