Tehran promises EU to adhere to JCPOA on one condition

Iran has promised the European Union to adhere to the terms of the nuclear agreement provided that EU countries make up for the damage Tehran may suffer from US sanctions, Iran’s nuclear chief, Vice President Ali Akbar Salehi said.

"We hope that what they have presented to us, will be materialized," Salehi said.

He urged EU representatives to stand up to Washington’s pressure and keep the 2015 accord in place. He added that Tehran would uphold the agreement only if the EU’s effort helps offset renewed US sanctions.

“The ball is in their court,” Sputnik cited Salehi as saying.
