Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesman Abbas Mousavi wrote in a tweet on Friday that The United States must end its discredited unilateralism, EDNews.net reports citing IRNA.
Abbas Mousavi, while releasing an infographic on the withdrawal of the United States from international treaties, wrote that Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) is neither the first nor the last multilateral achievement from which Trump withdrew. The US regime seeks to secure its short-term benefits at the expense of countries' long-term prosperity. This regime must end its discredited unilateralism.
The US has circulated a draft UN resolution that would indefinitely extend a UN arms embargo on Iran set to be expired in October, US officials and UN diplomats said on Tuesday.
Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif in a message said Iran nuclear deal known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) is part of UNSCR 2231 and advised US secretary of state to read the resolution.
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has recently claimed that the US is still a participant to the UNSC Resolution 2231 and can request an extension of Iran’s arms embargo based on the Article 11 of the Resolution.
