Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said the meeting with European Union’s foreign policy chief, Federica Mogherini in Brussels was “very good and constructive”. Zarif also said that both sides were on the “right track” to ensure that the interests of the JCPOA’s “remaining participants, particularly Iran, will be preserved and guaranteed.” Zarif’s comments came before meeting with foreign ministers of Germany, France and the UK, on continuing the JCPOA nuclear agreement after US withdrawal.
Separately, IRNA news agency quoted Iranian President Hassan Rouhani asking EU to stand against the US’ “illegal and illogical” actions of pulling out from JCPOA.
