TEHRAN, 30 January 2021, (TON): Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh made it clear to all stakeholders Saturday that the nuclear accord it signed is a multilateral international agreement ratified by UN Security Council Resolution 2231 and will remain unchangeable. Saeed Khatibzadeh said, “The nuclear accord is a multilateral international agreement ratified by UN Security Council Resolution 2231, which is non-negotiable and parties to it are clear and unchangeable.”  

Washington withdrew from the pact in 2018 under President Donald Trump and re-imposed economic sanctions on Tehran but it did not prevent Iran from its pursuit for peaceful acquisition of nuclear energy which West blames that Tehran violated the agreement with regard to enrichment. President Joe Biden’s new administration has announced that it intend rejoin the deal but only after Tehran ensures full compliance with its terms. But Iran has rejected US precondition to halt acceleration of the nuclear programme so that Washington lifts sanctions on Tehran.
