EU diplomat urges Iran to ‘preserve’ nuclear deal

The European Union’s top diplomat meets Iran’s foreign minister in India to press Tehran to “preserve” the increasingly fragile nuclear deal, according to a statement released in Brussels.

In his talks with Mohammad Javad Zarif in New Delhi, Josep Borrell warns that the deal is “more important than ever” given rising tensions in the Middle East, the statement said.

The two had “a frank dialogue” in which Borrell “underlined the continued interest of the European Union to preserve the agreement.”
