Europe must pressure US to comply with Iran nuclear deal: Zarif
tehran (KNA) - Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif says Europe must pressure the United States to fulfill its obligations under the 2015 nuclear agreement amid Washington's threat to pull out of it.
"Europe must put the US under pressure to implement its commitments and not allow the US to make illogical and unlawful demands despite its lack of commitment and violations [of its commitments]," Zarif said in a meeting with France's Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian in Tehran on Monday.
He added that the nuclear deal, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), was a multilateral agreement reached between Iran and the P5+1 group of countries in 2015 in cooperation with Europe.
Zarif emphasized that the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), which is tasked with monitoring Iran's compliance with its nuclear-related commitments under the JCPOA, has verified the Islamic Republic's compliance with the deal in 10 reports.
