Iran Press/ Iran News: Saeed Khatibzadeh pointed out to the efforts of the foreign media to magnify the US act to use a snapback mechanism against Iran and said that the media try to suggest that the sanctions return on Iran merely from the UN Security Council's side through the US demand.
"However, the United States has no place for such an action, and in an act contrary to the rules and regulations of international law and the provisions of resolution 2231, it has merely requested the incumbent President of the Security Council," Khatibzadeh added.
He noted that the US authority to make the request has been rejected by all members of JCPOA and that the US has even become so isolated among its allies that it has called the three European countries (Germany, France, Britain, known as E3) allies of Iran.
"All the remaining parties in the JCPOA, Russia, and China as well as the E3 countries have strongly rejected the baseless and illegitimate demand of the US and reached their voice to the UNSC president," the Iranian top diplomat said, adding that other members of the Security Council will take a similar stance in the coming days.
Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesman remarked that the ultimate and main goal of the US is to keep on economic terrorism against Iran's nation through resorting to political unilateralism, operating psychological war, and disturbing the economic and psychological stability of the country, but Iran will make the US lawbreakers again experience the taste of isolation.
