Iran Press/Europe: Although Iran's pull-back from its nuclear commitments has caused concerns in London, the British government says the JCPOA is still a significant agreement for joint security of Europe, UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office said.
It added that maintaining security could be achieved through diplomatic solutions in compliance with the commitments of the JCPOA and taking the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) into account.
On Wednesday, in response to the recent Iranian missile attack on US positions in Iraq as retaliation for assassinating of Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani, US President Donald Trump called on the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Russia, and China to break off from the Iran nuclear deal.
Iranian cabinet in a statement on January 5 announced the country's decision to take the final remedial step to reduce Tehran's commitments to the JCPOA.
The cabinet said that Iran will observe no restrictions in operational areas, including enrichment capacities, enrichment percentage, the volume of enriched material as well as research.
However, the cabinet said that Iran will continue cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) as before.
The cabinet made clear that Iran is ready to go back to its JCPOA commitments once the sanctions are removed and the country benefits from the nuclear deal.
Trump in his speech on Wednesday night said he will impose more sanctions against Iran and that sanctions will remain until Iran changes its behavior.
