IRNA – President Hassan Rouhani praised the achievements gained by the 2015 nuclear deal known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), stressing the agreement was a great job.


Through the JCPOA, Iran could globally trade nuclear technology, Rouhani said at a local gathering on Saturday with participation of officials in charge of holding the May presidential election.

“Today, they buy enriched materials from us and give us the yellow cake. In the first phase, we sold heavy water first to the US, and then to Russia,” President Rouhani stressed.

He said,' We forced those countries which issued resolutions against us to annul them.'

Turning to the issue of elections, the president described it as the biggest point of strength against the enemy and also as an event that will stabilize the political establishment.

Rouhani further stressed the importance of ensuring security in the society, adding that Iran enjoys good level of security.
