Bagheri Kani made the comment on his Twitter page as ahead of his visit to the Austrian capital for talks over the revival of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action or the JCPOA.
“Heading to Vienna to advance the negotiations. The Onus is on those who breached the deal & have failed to distance from ominous legacy. The US must seize the opportunity offered by the JCPOA partners’ generosity; ball is in their court to show maturity & act responsibly,” the tweet said.
Bagheri Kani, who is the deputy foreign minister for political affairs, will head to Vienna days after EU Foreign Policy Chief Josep Borrell put forward a proposal containing stances of different parties to the talks.
On Monday, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian said that all parties to the JCPOA revival talks are assessing the proposal in their capitals.
The US withdrew from the JCPOA in 2018, reinstating sanctions on Iran and throwing the deal into disarray.
