Joseph Borrell Spain Foreign Minister

The Spanish Foreign Minister has said Iran's new policy in relation to JCPOA is within the framework of the 2015 nuclear deal with the major world powers.

Iran Press/Iran news: Joseph Borrell recognized Iran’s decision about reducing commitments to Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) to be within the frame work of the nuclear deal.

"As far as I know, Iran’s decision is within the framework of the nuclear deal,” Borrell said on Wednesday in an interview with the Spanish state-run TV channel.

Withdrawing from JCPOA, the US took an inappropriate measure preparing the ground for today's move by Iran, he added.

"As far as know, Iran’s decision is within the framework of the nuclear deal, but the International Atomic Energy Agency is the body in charge to decide about JCPOA-related issues,” he added.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani on Wednesday appeared on TV to declare Iranian reciprocal action to US over the breach of JCPOA by scale-down of Iran's commitments envisaged by Note 26 of the nuclear deal.

The president noted that "It does not mean that Iran leaves the nuclear agreement, known as Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).”

Rouhani said Iran will give a 60-day moratorium to the parties to the deal to remedy the breaches and preserve Iran's interests enshrined by JCPOA.

He further said that the European signatories to the deal were doing well in lip service, but they were unable to implement what they vowed. 101/211/205
