Following a Ministerial meeting on the JCPOA with representatives of the E3/EU-2 and Iran, the European Union’s High Representative, Federica Mogherini, today (24 Sep) said participants had “considered ways forward to ensure the full and effective implementation of the JCPOA in all its aspects” and “finding and operationalizing practical solutions for issues arising from the unilateral withdrawal of the United States from the Agreement.”

Standing next to The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Iran, Mohammad Zarif, Mogherini said Iran “has continued to fully and effectively implement its nuclear related commitments as confirmed by 12 consecutive reports by the International Atomic Energy Agency”

The High Commissioner said, “participants underlined the determination to protect the freedom of their economic operators to pursue legitimate business with Iran in full accordance with UN Security Council resolution 2231.”

Iran and the P5+1 (China France, Germany, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States) agreed on the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) on 14 July 2015 and was adopted as Security Council Resolution 2231 on 20 July 2015.

On 8 May 2018, President Donald Trump of the United States announced it would withdraw from the JCPOA and reinstate sanctions on Iran.
