President of the European Council Charles Michel in a Twitter post early on Wednesday expressed the European Union�s support for �immediate restoration� of the July 2015 nuclear deal, aka Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

�EU is fully behind an immediate restoration of #JCPOA,� Charles Michel wrote.

�Concluding an agreement soon is in our shared interest.�

After months of intensive negotiations about the removal of the sanctions, now the talks have reached a point where if the US accepts the necessity of formation of a sustainable and reliable agreement, the final agreement will be achieved in the shortest time.

Iran has repeatedly stressed that fulfillment of [Iranian] people�s interests is necessary for an agreement on the removal of the sanctions effectively and sustainably.

Iran underlines that the sanctions should not remain as a tool for putting pressure on the country.

In a meeting with Michel, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi said that those who exited the JCPOA were Americans, so Iran has the right to ask for guarantees.

Iran�s demands for solving issues related to the Safeguards Agreements are logical and reasonable, President Raisi noted.

�Sanctions against the Islamic Republic of Iran have not stopped and will not stop us.�

Iran�s president left for New York on Monday (September 19) to attend the 77th United Nations General Assembly session.
