Mogherini: no renegotiation on Iran nuke deal possible

Baku, Azerbaijan, Jan. 19

By Farhad Daneshvar – Trend:

EU foreign affairs chief Federica Mogherini has said that the EU would not welcome any attempt to renegotiate Iran’s nuclear deal.

“This is an agreement that was endorsed by the UN Security Council with a resolution. This has involved six world powers plus the European Union and Iran,” Federica Mogherini said on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting in Davos, streamed live on the forum’s official website.

“So it is an international agreement. It is not a bilateral agreement and by the way it came after 12 years of very difficult and tough negotiations,” she added.

“I think it is very clear to everybody that reopening it partially will not be possible,” the EU official concluded.

Mogherini made the comment reacting to President-elect Donald Trump’s remarks who has earlier called the 2015 accord (nuclear deal aka JCPOA) "the worst deal ever negotiated" and threatened to annul it or seek a better agreement.
