Iran taking steps to facilitate investments after US nuclear deal pullout: Larijani
Tehran (KNA) - Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani says the Islamic Republic has taken steps to facilitate investments in the country after the United States' move to withdraw from a landmark nuclear agreement signed between Iran and the P5+1 group of countries in 2015.
Speaking to reporters in Tehran on Tuesday, Larijani added that the US acted in violation of morality and international regulations and commitments and pulled out from the nuclear agreement, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).He added that the US move has somehow affected investments in Iran, saying Tehran has adopted certain measures in this regard while negotiations are also underway.
"In accordance with the US behavior within the next months, we should work out a more precise framework," the top Iranian parliamentarian pointed out.
US President Donald Trump announced on May 8 that Washington was walking away from the nuclear agreement, which was reached between Iran and the five permanent members of the UN Security Council - the United States, Britain, France, Russia and China - plus Germany.
