Iran, EU Reject U.S. Plan To Trigger ‘Snapback’ Of Sanctions
(Worthy News) – Iran and the European Union have rejected U.S. President Donald Trump’s plan to trigger a “snapback” of sanctions on Iran at the United Nations under a provision of the Iran nuclear deal.
Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, noting that the United States withdrew from the agreement, was quoted by state media on August 16 as saying that the Americans “know very well that the implementation of the snapback is something illegal and therefore absolutely unacceptable.”
A spokeswoman for EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell, also speaking on August 16, said that since Washington withdrew from the agreement, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), it could not be considered a part of it. [ Source: Radio Free Europe (Read More…) ]
