Brussels regrets Washington's decision on Iran oil sanctions

The European Union regrets the United States' decision to halt waivers on sanctions against importers of Iranian oil, which may undermine the success of the nuclear deal, Spokesperson for EU Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Maja Kocijancic said.

"We regret yesterday's announcement by the US not to renew all waivers. This further risks undermining the implementation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action," she said the the press conference.

"We, as the European Union, will continue to abide by the JCPOA as long as Iran continues the full and effective implementation of its nuclear-related commitments," Sputnik cited Kocijancic as saying.
