Rouhani made the remarks in a meeting with UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres
on Wednesday during his stay in New York for the 73rd session of the UN General
Assembly.
"The United Nations should shoulder its responsibility to strengthen the rules
of international law so that no country could renege on its international
commitments, including Security Council resolutions, at its own desire,” Rouhani
said.
He said promise-breaking and lawlessness should not turn into a routine trend in
the international community.
"Transparent positions of the UN secretary general will be effective in
preserving the JCPOA as a symbol of successful deal making and an outcome of
dialog and diplomacy,” he added, using an acronym for the official name of the
Iran deal, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.
Iran has so far lived up to its commitments under the JCPOA despite the illegal
US exit, said Rouhani, urging the UN to help get its member states to take
practical measures to protect the JCPOA besides adopting political positions on
the matter.
