Iran: EU Isn’t in Position to Question Us

By Staff, Agencies

Criticizing the European signatories of failing to save the nuclear deal, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Abbas Mousavi stated: “so far, we have not seen practical and tangible steps from the Europeans to guarantee Iran's interests… Tehran will not discuss any issue beyond the nuclear deal.”

"The EU is not in a position to question Iran's issues beyond the nuclear deal," Mousavi added.

Tensions between Iran and the United States have been simmering since Washington decided to withdraw from the 2015 nuclear deal in May 2018 and reinstated all sanctions against the Islamic Republic.

The US sanctions against Iran mostly target its oil industry and are directed at reducing the country's exports to zero.
