Iran’s Ambassador to the United Kingdom Hamid Baeidinejad held a meeting with the UK Labor Party Jeremy Corbyn to discuss global and regional peace.

Hamid Baeidinejad said in a post on his Twitter account on Monday that in the meeting with Jeremy Corbyn, they had discussed “a wide range of policy issues, including global and regional peace and security as well as non-proliferation and JCPOA.”

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.

Trump also said he would reinstate US nuclear sanctions on Iran and impose "the highest level" of economic bans on the Islamic Republic.

Under the JCPOA, Iran undertook to put limits on its nuclear program in exchange for the removal of nuclear-related sanctions imposed against Tehran.

Earlier, The head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI), Ali Akbar Salehi says it is not possible to have JCPOA and sanctions at the same time , as indicated by the Leader of the Islamic Revolution.

Since the US president pulled Washington out of the historic nuclear deal, European countries have been scrambling to ensure that Iran gets enough economic benefits to persuade it to stay in the deal. The remaining parties have vowed to stay in the accord.

The Iranian diplomat expressed his appreciation for Corbyn’s support for world peace, saying “I thank him for his vision and commitment to promote peace.”

He also added that Corbyn had explicit support for preserving Iran nuclear deal.
