Russia condemns the attempt by the United Kingdom, France and Germany to trigger the re-imposition of UN sanctions against Iran, the Russian Foreign Ministry has said.
The ministry noted that on 28 August the foreign ministers of the UK, Germany and France sent a letter to the UN Secretary-General and the President of the Security Council, claiming that Tehran was in serious breach of its commitments under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) on Iran’s nuclear programme.
"We strongly condemn these actions by European countries and call on the international community to reject them... In fact, we are faced with an unceremonious attempt to manipulate the provisions of UN Security Council resolution 2231 by the European countries participating in the JCPOA [Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action]," the statement said.
The E3 have no legal grounds for using the mechanism to reimpose sanctions against Iran, the ministry said.
"We consider it important to prevent a new escalation around the nuclear program of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which, as demonstrated by the foreign aggression against Iran in June this year, will have grave consequences for international peace and security," the statement said.
Russia also urges the E3 states to reconsider the decision before it leads to irreparable consequences, the ministry added.
