US extends Iran embargo relief based on nuclear deal
IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency
Tehran, Sept 15, IRNA -- US State Department said that Washington extended some sanctions relief for Iran based on the 2015 nuclear deal reached between Iran and G5+1 (US, UK, Russia, France, China plus Germany).
The US State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert told reporters the administration had approved waivers of some sanctions on Iran to maintain some flexibility as it develops its Iran policy, dispatches reported.
It is worth noting that US President Donald Trump on October 15 must inform Congress if Iran is complying with the terms of the nuclear agreement and whether the deal remains in US national security interests or not.
However, Iranian officials have always warned about sabotage of the nuclear deal by the US.
Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) Ali Shamkhani on Friday morning called Trump policy towards Iran unconstructive, and said, 'Islamic Republic will reciprocate the US breach of its obligations enshrined in the nuclear deal.'
