Iranian compliance with the nuclear deal: UK statement

Iran has announced its intention to further reduce its level of compliance with the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPoA).

This was published under the 2019 to 2022 Johnson Conservative government

A Foreign and Commonwealth Office spokesperson said:

Iran’s plan to suspend limits on nuclear research and development is deeply concerning.

This third step away from its commitments under the nuclear deal is particularly disappointing at a time when we and our European and international partners are working hard to de-escalate tensions with Iran.
