All the parties to the Iran nuclear deal are abiding by its terms, the European Union says, despite Tehran’s charges that new US sanctions breach the agreement.
Tehran says the new measures violate its 2015 deal with world powers that eased sanctions in exchange for curbs on its nuclear program, an agreement which US President Donald Trump has repeatedly threatened to tear up.
“So far we consider that all parties have been implementing their commitments under the deal,” Catherine Ray, a spokeswoman for EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini, tells a press briefing in Brussels.
“We expect their continued adherence,” Ray says when asked to comment on the Iranian charges.
Ray bases her expectation on a July 21 meeting in Vienna of the Mogherini-chaired commission that brings together Iran and the other parties to discuss the deal’s implementation.
