Iran collects criticism after threatening the continuity of the nuclear deal and seeks to separate Europe from the United States

The Iranian Foreign Minister, Mohamad Yavad Zarif, He urged Europe to fulfill its obligations to normalize its economic relations with Iran and not to be intimidated by the United States to save the 2015 nuclear deal.

Zarif accused the European Union (EU) of being at the origin of the pact"The United States has intimidated Europe and the rest of the world for a year and the EU can only express its regret," he lamented in recent hours in a message posted on Twitter.

"Instead of asking Iran to unilaterally comply with a multilateral agreement, the EU should comply with its obligations, including the normalization of economic ties"Zarif pointed out.

Europe has adopted a series of measures to counter the sanctions imposed on Iran last year by the United States after their unilateral withdrawal from the nuclear agreement, but they are not effective at the moment.

In addition, Rohani has submitted a 60-day ultimatum to the rest of the signatories of the agreement (Russia, China, France, United Kingdom and Germany) in order to guarantee at least the banking transactions of Iran and its oil exports.

Washington abandoned the nuclear deal while other members continued to defend it and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) had certified fourteen times that Iran was honoring its commitments.

The pact, signed in Vienna in 2015, limits the Iranian nuclear program in exchange for the lifting of international sanctions. American measures have thus deeply weakened it.
