Iran criticizes European nations’ decision on nuclear deal

Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has described as a "strategic mistake" the decision of Germany, France and the UK to trigger the Dispute Resolution Mechanism within the framework of the implementation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) on Iran's nuclear program.

"The usage of the dispute mechanism is legally baseless and represents a strategic mistake from a political standpoint," Zarif said at a meeting with Niels Annen, Minister of State at the German Federal Foreign Office, as cited by the Iranian Foreign Ministry's press service.
