AEOI: Iran to scale back nuclear commitments in 3rd phase 'in a month'

Tehran (KNA) - Iran says it will take the third step in scaling back its commitments under a 2015 landmark nuclear deal with world powers "in a matter of a month" if European signatories to the agreement, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), continue to renege on their obligations.

The spokesman for the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI), Behrouz Kamalvandi, made the announcement while addressing foreign and domestic reporters in Tehran on Monday.

"If the opposite side fails to live up to its commitments in the remaining one month [set as a deadline], the third phase of reducing JCPOA obligations will start as per what the president has previously declared in his capacity as head of Iran's Supreme National Security Council," Kamalvandi said.
