“The parties to JCPOA have begun to express doubts about Iran’s compliance with the deal despite the fact that the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has verified Iran’s compliance with the agreement on 15 occasions,” President Rayeesi said.
“We are facing disloyal people who easily break promises and trample (on others’ rights) and oppress others,” the Iranian president said while addressing a group of provincial officials in Tehran.
President Rayeesi said Iran will continue to stand up against such an “imperialistic system” that has no principles.
In recent months, Iran has cited Washington’s indecisiveness as the reason behind the protraction of the talks, as a number of key issues remain unresolved, ranging from the removal of all post-JCPOA sanctions to the provision of guarantees by the American side that it will not leave the deal again.
In 2019, Iran started its retaliatory remedial measures by reducing its commitments to the 2015 nuclear deal after the European parties to the deal — France, Germany and Britain — failed to fulfill their commitments to Tehran by confronting the unilateral US sanctions.
Tehran began to gradually remove a cap set in the JCPOA on its nuclear activities at bi-monthly intervals. At the time, Tehran insisted if the Iranian economy was shielded from sanctions, it would reverse its nuclear decision.
