when talking about 1929 resolution you should remember why this and other resolutions were adopted. have a look in it to see Iran is sanctioned because of breaching of its obligations to suspend all enrichment-related activities and not running additional IAEA protocols. now tell us who has accepted those obligations? aren't them the same liars who were referring to it as a temporary and voluntary suspension?Please don't pretend to be a legal expert. So why don't you tell me what does resolution 1929 mean?
Resolution 2231 "calls upon" Iran to stop any ballistic missile activity that can carry a nuclear war head and puts an eight year cap on this limitation.
Resolution 1929 Obliges Iran "Shall not" do any missile activities as described in 2231 INFINITELY. There is not a time limitation on it and if it wasn't because of Resolution 2231 it could continue until eternity.
Are you seriously claiming 2231 is not a better resolution compared to 1929? As far as I'm concerned Zarif is cleaning up a mess that someone else caused. There are limited things you can do when you are in DAMAGE CONTROL mode.
Here is the proof to my claim that 2231 doesn't oblige Iran to stop ballistic missile test:
After missile tests, UN urges Iran act with restraint, 'good sense' - Breaking News - Jerusalem Post
As you can see, UN doesn't say Iran has violated any resolutions.
Here is another one from New York Times. Read the question sepcifically about ballistic missiles.

Both news are from not so friendly nations.
And about giving up rights, Ahmadinejad gave up a hell of a lot of Iran's rights with his actions or inactions. Examples: Right to free trade, Right to selling its oil, right to economic growth,.......
you don't need to sign anything to give up your rights sometimes. When someone breaks the law and becomes imprisoned, he has willingly given up his right of freedom by his actions. Nobody cares if he ever agreed to it or signed anything. Don't tell me Ahmadinejad didn't know that his country will be sanctioned and lose tons of opportunities for not giving up his so called nuclear rights. Because that's an excuse worse than the crime.
Like it or not, we live in a world where countries relations are governed by international law. They may be one sided, they may be unjust. But Iran needs to choose if it wants to abide by those laws or break them. You can't have the best of both worlds. You can't expect the same regulations help you when Russia doesn't deliver your S300 missiles and then ignore them in another instance when you don't like them. I know that's our general attitude towards law as Iranians but world doesn't work that way.
Zarif has aligned those laws with what Iran is doing. Has he made compromises? Yes. Is it perfect? No. But that's the cost of living in a society.
You may think having a nuclear bomb was worth anything Iran lost during last 10 years. Fine, but that doesn't make you a better Iranian than me or Zarif or anyone else who thinks Iran needs economic boost to drive its strategic interests not bomb.
You need a positive rating for this!
Why does US grab every opportunity to show off its military capacities? Doesn't the world know it is a superpower?
Sometimes key to getting into the head of your opponents' military and non military leaders is through their people. Make world people believe that you are really strong and then their leaders will have a much harder time selling the idea of a war with you to them.
We don't have Hollywood on our side so this is the best we can do:
Which Films Does the Pentagon Financially Support?
firstly, all of previous resolutions have unified in 2231, and they have put enough excuses in it to make sure it wont reach the final day, they will play with us for a few years and then use their well placed phrases to force Iran break the resolution, for example asking to examine our missile warheads and military sites; just like this recent case which none of them said anything about suspending missile launches in 2231 resolution till yesterday, suddenly all of them, even U.N secretary general Ban ki-moon opened their mouth and remembered it. what matters is American officials not some newspapers.
secondly, if you think 2231 is any better resolution, then you should know Mr Zarif was playing on the Ahmadinejad achievements, otherwise like previous time he would agree to suspend everything in return of nothing.
and thanks to their political motives (elections) for quickly fulfilling our commitments without waiting for the other side, it has converted to another in return of nothing too:
از غسل تعميد برجام تا نگراني درباره عهد شکني آمريکا/ تناقض گويي عراقچي درباره رفع تحريم ها؛ فقط تحريم هاي کنگره باقي مانده .... تحريم هاي اوليه هم پابرجاست، بانک ها هم پول ما را نمي دهند
thirdly, I feel sorry for you for believing Americans lies about Iranian nuclear bomb. if we wanted to build it, we would do it and like North Korea nobody would notice till it was too late. actually our country is much bigger and lot more easier.
well of course when the thought of Qajar is advertised and the meaning of advancement is a selfie with a passing foreign plane, then thinking about future generations and energy security should be a joke too. the same way the lives of 800,000 patients who need radio medicine became unimportant, they must be less Iranian.
