US attempts to undermine JCPOA in vain: Irans President

Tasnim Iranian President Hassan Rouhani highlighted the countrys foreign policy achievements in the last Iranian year, which ended on March 20, referring to the USs failure to undermine the joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), a nuclear deal between Tehran and world powers, as on

Over the past 14 months (since the beginning of Donald Trumps presidency), the Americans have made extensive attempts to undercut and terminate the JCPOA but to no avail, Rouhani said Sunday on the first work day of the new Iranian year.

The president described the International Atomic Energy Agencys (IAEA) numerous reports confirming Irans commitment to the nuclear deal as very important and precious both morally and politically, saying the majority of world countries are also on Irans side when it comes to the JCPOA implementation.

This is a major success for the Islamic Republic of Irans government and foreign policy, he added.

He also noted that Washington made numerous attempts to launch cases against Iran in the United Nations and the Security Council last year but failed in all of them.

The nuclear agreement between Iran and the Group 5+1 (Russia, China, the US, Britain, France and Germany) was reached in July 2015 and came into force in January 2016.

Ever since the deal took effect, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has confirmed Irans compliance with the JCPOA in all quarterly reports, but some other parties, especially the US, have failed to live up to their undertakings.

Trump has on various occasions called for renegotiating the JCPOA or terminating it but Iran and most other parties to the deal say the nuclear agreement is a valid multilateral international document that would not be renegotiated.
