Former European Union foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini has publicly cautioned against using threats in dealings with Iran, stating that "mere pressure and threats cannot be effective." She praised Iranians as highly skilled negotiators with significant technical knowledge and historical memory, giving them an advantage. Mogherini noted that Tehran had adhered to its commitments under the JCPOA nuclear deal but did not receive the full economic benefits due to the US withdrawal. Her comments come amid a stalled diplomatic process and heightened tensions in the region.
