Obama: New Iran nuclear agreement may be significantly different from the old one.

Former U.S. President Barack Obama stated that it would be difficult for both the U.S. and Iran to reach a new agreement that significantly differs from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action that was established during his presidency in 2015, and it would also be difficult to achieve substantial improvements. Obama said in an interview with ABC News, "Even if both sides reach a new agreement, it would be hard to make significant changes compared to the agreement we originally negotiated, let alone major improvements. The agreement had been operating smoothly for quite some time before the U.S. withdrew from it." The full interview will be broadcast on Wednesday. Obama also expressed his hope for the flames of war to be extinguished and for ordinary civilians to no longer suffer from conflict. He advocated for resolving most conflicts through diplomatic means rather than military actions, and criticized the approach of solving problems through pressure or airstrikes. He called for all parties to patiently advance diplomatic mediation and strive to achieve compromise agreements: it is not necessary to completely solve all problems, but as long as eight to nine tenths of the conflicts can be resolved while avoiding the outbreak of war, it is a feasible solution.
