Iranian President’s Adviser, Hesamodin Ashna, said Thu. that the nuclar watchdog chief has received Iran’s clear message on the future of the country’s peaceful nuclear program.
“Amano has received a clear and decisive message on the future of Iran’s peaceful nuclear activities in case the EU’s package of proposals does not measure up to Tehran’s expectations,” Iranian President’s Adviser, Hesamodin Ashna, wrote in a tweet on Thursday.
His remarks referred to the Wed. meeting between President Rouhani and Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Yukiya Amano in Vienna, during which Rouhani discussed Iran’s concerns regarding the US’ unilateral pullout from the JCPOA and the imbalance the move has caused; “in such a situation, the other signatories have the responsibility to counter this move and compensate for the imbalance of the commitments,” Rouhani told Amano, stressing that Iran would make a new decision concerning the future of the nuclear deal if the country’s economic interests are not served.
During the meeting with President Rouhani on Wed., Amano once again reiterated Iran’s full compliance with the nuclear deal, and voiced appreciation to Iran for showing restraint after US’ unlawful withdrawal from the agreement.
Meanwhile, foreign ministers from Iran and five world powers – UK, France, Germany, China, and Russia – will meet in Austrian capital on Friday to discuss the European Union’s package of proposals aimed at ensuring that Iran gets enough economic benefits to be willing to stay in the deal despite US sanctions.
