Speaking on Tuesday, Alaeddin Boroujerdi, the chairman of the Iranian parliament's national security and foreign policy commission said, Iran wants Europeans countries to prove in practical terms their commitment to the nuclear deal (the JCPOA ).
He added, European countries must remain committed to the nuclear deal, and European companies should honour their contracts with Iran in case of transferring technology and economic cooperation.
He described recent anti-Iran comments By U.S. Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, as 'non-diplomatic.
Boroujerdi once again rejected US accusations against Iran, such as supporting terrorism, and noted that the Lebanese Hezbollah and the Palestinian resistance groups are legal groups which are defending their homeland against enemies.
On 8 May, US President, Donald Trump, withdrew the United States from the 2015 nuclear deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
The deal placed confidence-building curbs on Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for lifting of nuclear-related sanctions against Iran.
The Trump administration is now reimposing sanctions on Iran after its withdrawal from the deal.
