Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) member-states in their final statement urged the signatories of Iran nuclear deal, also known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), to comply with their commitments.

The US president unilaterally withdrew from the multilateral nuclear deal with Iran on May 8, 2018, re-imposing two rounds of sanctions on the country the second of which targeted Tehran's oil exports.
Exactly a year later, Iran announced that it would suspend some of its commitments under the deal in reaction to the US hostile measures.
Iran's President Hassan Rouhani said earlier that Iran will give a 60-day moratorium to the states parties to Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) to remedy their breaches and restore Iran's interests enshrined by the international deal.
