Top US General Says Iran Complying with Nuke Deal
Local Editor
A top US general said Iran complied with the terms of the 2015 nuclear agreement, warning Washington that leaving the landmark deal will have harmful consequences for the US.
US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Joseph Dunford said on Tuesday that the government in Tehran had acted in compliance with the deal between Iran and the P5+1 group of countries, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action [JCPOA], adding that a decision to walk away from it would make other nations less likely to enter into agreements with the US in the future.
"The briefings I have received indicate that Iran is adhering to its JCPOA obligations," Dunford said.
"It makes sense to me that our holding up agreements that we have signed, unless there is a material breach, would have an impact on others' willingness to sign agreements."
Dunford made the remarks days after US President Donald Trump called the deal an "embarrassment to the United States," and said he was considering whether to withdraw Washington from the 2015 deal.
On Monday, the ambassadors to the United States from Britain, France, Germany and the European Union all strongly backed the nuclear agreement with Iran.
The JCPOA was reached between Iran and the five permanent members of the UN Security Council - the United States, France, Britain, Russia and China - plus Germany in July 2015 and took effect in January 2016.
