EU urges Iran to stick with N-suspension
BRUSSELS: The European Union warned Iran on Monday that future relations depended on it respecting its commitment to freeze sensitive nuclear activities. In addition, EU foreign ministers were dismayed at the exclusion of reformist candidates from next month’s Iranian presidential election by a conservative Islamic watchdog.
Meeting two days before crucial talks in Geneva between the three leading EU powers and Iran, the 25 ministers urged Tehran to stick to its pledge to suspend uranium enrichment and related activities that could help it develop nuclear weapons. “There was a clear reaffirmation that the Iranians have to respect the commitments they entered into last November under the Paris agreement. These commitments cannot be circumvented,” Luxembourg Foreign Minister Jean Asselborn told reporters after chairing the meeting, “This is very important for further relations between the EU and Iran.” reuters
