A recent Western statement has condemned what is claimed to be an increase by Iran in the production rate of highly enriched uranium of up to 60% purity.

The E3 has condemned the unveiling of a new ballistic missile variant by Iran on November 19.

Iran’s foreign minister says “excessive demands” by the US and the three European parties to the nuclear deal have stalled talks to revive the deal and remove sanctions on the Islamic Republic.

The European signatories to the 2015 Iran deal say they will keep sanctions pertaining to the Iranian ballistic missile program.

Iran’s permanent representative at the United Nations office in Vienna has called on the European governments to avoid adopting “provocative and unconstructive attitudes” to the Islamic Republic’s peaceful nuclear program and work towards the resolution of disputes.

The E3 announced the official shutdown of INSTEX, some four years after the financial channel was established by European countries.

An Iranian diplomat says the E3 seeks to distract the world from the Israeli regime’s military nuclear program, which is a source of instability in the region and a threat to peace and security.
