Russia ready for dialogue over future of Iran deal after 2025 - senior diplomat
Russia's Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov said
Tuesday his country is prepared for dialogue over the future of the Iranian
nuclear deal after 2025, Tehran's missile program and regional problems, TASS
news agency reported.
In July 2015, Iran, the five permanent members of
the UN Security Council (Russia, Britain, China, the United States and France)
and Germany achieved an agreement on settling Tehran's nuclear problem. Their
Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action envisages the lifting of US and EU sanctions
imposed on Iran over its nuclear program. In January 2016, it was announced
that the deal had begun to be implemented and Washington lifted its
restrictions.
US President Donald Trump declared on Tuesday that
he was pulling out of the Iran nuclear deal.
