Tehran: Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi has called on the European Union and E3, France, Germany, and Britain, to abandon their “worn-out policy” of threat and pressure.
Writing on his X account on Friday, Araqchi touched on the remarks made in a joint teleconference with the foreign ministers of the E3 and the E.U.’s High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Kaja Kallas.
It was the U.S. that withdrew from a two-year negotiated deal, coordinated by the E.U. in 2015- not Iran, he said.
The official also said in the teleconference that it was U.S. that left the negotiation table in June this year and chose a military option instead, not Iran.
“Any new round of talks is only possible when the other side is ready for a fair, balanced, and mutually beneficial nuclear deal,” he added.
If E.U. or E3 want to have a role, they should act responsibly, the top diplomat said, urging them to put aside the worn-out policies of threat and pressure, including the snap-back for which they lack absolutely no moral and legal ground.
