Zarif: "If Europe remains passive, we can increase our uranium enrichment"
Tehran (KNA): The Iranian foreign minister, Mohammad Javad Zarif, has emphasized that Europe must decide whether it wants to surrender to the United States or not, and if it chooses to be independent of US, Europe must compensate Iran for losses suffered as a result of US withdrawal from the JCPOA.
In an interview with the German magazine, Der Spiegel the Iranian foreign minister, Mohammad Javad Zarif, urged the Europeans to stand up to Donald Trump and his administration, asking them to compensate Iran for the losses we have suffered as a result of Washington withdrawing from the JCPOA.
Foreign minister Zarif pointedly added: "The Europeans can no longer sit on the fence. They must decide whether to surrender to the US, or to stand up to the US."
Mohammad Javad Zarif also had this warning to the Europeans. He said: "If Europe continues to be passive vis-a-vis America's withdrawal from the nuclear deal, Iran can increase its uranium enrichment activities."
