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).

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.
