Zarif: Remove cause of Iran's reduction of JCPOA commitments
IRNA - Islamic Republic News Agency
Tehran, Feb 25, IRNA -- Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said in a Twitter message on Thursday that the US has admitted that Iran stepped away from its commitments because the US withdrew from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) signed by the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council plus Germany and Iran.
"US admits that only after it 'left the JCPOA, Iran has taken steps away' while until then 'Iran was living up to its limits' That US behavior—the CAUSE—has not changed," Zarif tweeted.
He added that the European troika is "also culpable" because they had "no business" with Iran "for 3 yrs".
The US and the E3 "must remove the cause, NOT ask Iran to stop 136 remedies".
