Deputy FM: G5+1 gives clear warning to US
TEHRAN(Basirat): Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said that all parties to the nuclear agreement should remain fully committed to the deal.
'Members of the Group 5+1 (the US, China, Russia, France and Britain
plus Germany) should very frankly and clearly protest to the US and
underline that the country should fully and precisely remain committed
to the JCPOA,' Araqchi said speaking to reporters at the end of a joint
commission about the JCPOA in Vienna.
Speaking to reporters after the meeting, he said in today's meeting all members of the G5+1 underlined that both sides should remain committed to their pledges with regards to JCPOA and it is not possible that one side fully remain committed while some members in the other side mind to ignore it.
The EU’s deputy political director Helga Schmid, thanked the Islamic Republic of Iran for its commitment to JCPOA and urged all sides to remain committed to their pledges with good will and a constructive atmosphere.
US delegation despite their previous claims has underlined that they will remain committed to the JCPOA and the policy pursued by the US administration, Araqchi said.
'Internal developments in the US has nothing to do with us,' he said, adding that they can constantly exchange the JCPOA between congress and White House, but should remain committed to their pledges within treaty.
The Americans should understand that there is no room to renegotiate the JCPOA, Araqchi said and entering into other issues is totally irrelevant to the JCPOA.
Domestic developments in the US are not important for us, he said, adding that the important issue is that they should act upon their commitments and terminate all sanctions and never let them back.
Presently the US is totally isolated in its stances while the standpoints adopted by the Europe are very clear, Araqchi said.
The US disloyalties have harmed existing atmosphere but trend of cooperation with Europe is on good track while the same trend in other parts such as east of Asia and Japan is enforced, he said.
Talks on expansion of financial cooperation with Japan and South Korea along with a number of other countries in east of Asia and the Europe are underway and politically both Europe and the rest of the world are now resisting against the US, Araqchi added.
The text of the JCPOA is very clear and no interpretation will be accepted to this end, he said.
There is a key issue in the JCPOA which indicates that the treaty can play significant role in maintaining regional and global peace and security, Araqchi went on to say.
The fact is that the JCOPA has not been fully implemented and this will happen after ten years long and when all sanctions will have been lifted within ten years to indicate that the JCPOA as a successful experience can play role in global peace, he said.
'I believe that the JCPOA presently has resolved many issues in the troubled Middle East region,' the senior diplomat added.
