TEHRAN, 22 April, 2021 (TON): The President of Iran Hassan Rouhani has called for full implementation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) or the nuclear deal 2015.
On Wednesday, Rouhani said in a cabinet meeting, "The JCPOA must be implemented well. We want the implementation of the same JCPOA document, neither a word less nor a word more."
He added that Iran does not want "a JCPOA plus."
Rouhani stressed that the new round of talks about the nuclear deal should aim to map out three steps. He said, "The first step is the lift sanctions by the US. As the second step, we want to verify the lift of sanctions thereafter."
He added that at the third step, Iran will implement its own commitments under the deal.
However, Iran gradually stopped implementing parts of its commitments in May 2019 a year after the administration of former U.S. President Donald Trump unilaterally abandoned the agreement and re-imposed sanctions on Iran.
