Zarif: US bullies Europe, EU only expresses regret
Tehran (KNA) - Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif says the European Union should stop submitting to Washington’s dictates concerning Tehran instead of just expressing “regret” over the US’s anti-Iran policy.
"EU statement today is why JCPOA is where it is: the US has bullied Europe-and rest of world-for a year and EU can only express 'regret'," the top diplomat tweeted on Thursday.
Zarif was referring to the nuclear deal signed between Iran and then P5+1 group of countries in July 2015, which is officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action. The EU directed the negotiations that led to the agreement's conclusion in 2015.
