伊朗坚决反对并强烈谴责德法英启动“快速恢复制裁”机制

Core Viewpoint - Iran's Foreign Ministry strongly opposes and condemns the European countries' submission of a notification to the UN Security Council regarding Resolution 2231, claiming it violates the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) and the resolution itself [1][2]. Group 1: Iran's Position - Iran asserts that the European countries lack legal or moral authority to invoke the "snapback" mechanism of Resolution 2231, deeming their notification invalid and without legal effect [1]. - The JCPOA's dispute resolution mechanism is highlighted as an essential part of the agreement, designed to prevent any party from abusing their rights, particularly by countries like Germany, France, and the UK that have not fulfilled their commitments [1]. - Iran emphasizes that the misuse of the mechanism, especially following the illegal attack on its nuclear facilities by the US, reflects malicious intent [1]. Group 2: Criticism of European Countries - Iran accuses the European countries of ignoring the broader context and distorting the sequence of events, claiming they are rewarding violators while punishing victims [2]. - The unilateral withdrawal of the US from the JCPOA in 2018 and the subsequent re-imposition of sanctions are attributed to the US, not Iran, while the failure of European countries to mitigate the economic impacts of this withdrawal is also criticized [2]. - The decision by the European countries is said to severely undermine the ongoing interactions and cooperation between Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), with Iran indicating it will respond appropriately to this provocation [2].
