Moscow calls for holding meeting of Joint Commission on Iran nuclear deal

Moscow thinks it necessary to convene a meeting of the Joint Commission on the Iran nuclear deal, Russia’s Foreign Ministry said on Thursday after Iran has scaled down the implementation of its commitments under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA, known as the Iran nuclear deal), ONA reports ctng TASS.

"The seriousness of current events calls for convening a meeting of the Joint Commission as the JPCOA stipulates. In [the commission], the parties to the agreement, including Iran, might figure out how to normalize the situation, to join efforts in working out a roadmap in order to guarantee preservation of the deal which is of particular importance in the context of regional and global security," the ministry said in a commentary.

Nevertheless, Moscow "has accepted with understanding" Tehran’s decision.
