BERLIN (AP) \u2014 Talks to revive Iran\u2019s tattered 2015 nuclear deal with world powers are resuming on Tuesday after breaking off for a bit over a week for diplomats to return home for consultations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The European Union, which chairs the talks in Vienna, announced the resumption on Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The United States pulled out of the Vienna accord in 2018 under then President Donald Trump and reimposed heavy sanctions on Iran. Tehran has responded by increasing the purity and amounts of uranium it enriches and stockpiles, in breach of the accord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
U.S. President Joe Biden has signaled that he wants to rejoin the deal. Britain, France, Germany, Russia and China are still parties to the accord with Iran and have been trying to salvage it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cNegotiations seem to be at the final stage which requires determination and energetic efforts from all participants to get to the destination point,\u201d Russia\u2019s delegate to the talks, Mikhail Ulyanov, said on Twitter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Diplomats from the three European countries said when talks paused after a month on Jan. 28 that the negotiations were reaching the final stage, and that required political decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Friday, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken\u00a0signed several sanctions\u00a0waivers related to Iran\u2019s civilian nuclear activities. The move reverses the Trump administration\u2019s decision to rescind them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iran\u2019s foreign minister\u00a0on Saturday welcomed\u00a0the sanctions relief but called it insufficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
