Germany in close contact with Russia, China in relation to Iran nuclear deal

Berlin maintains close contacts with Moscow and Beijing in relation to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) for Iran’s nuclear program, German Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Maria Adebahr said at a briefing on Friday.

“We continue to actively exchange views with our Russian and Chinese colleagues. Not only we, but also Russia and China remain in the agreement,” she said.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said on Wednesday that Tehran had decided to reduce its commitments to the JCPOA. “Starting today [March 8], Iran does not keep its enriched uranium and produced heavy water limited. The EU/E3+2 will face Iran’s further actions if they can not fulfill their obligations within the next 60 days and secure Iran’s interests,” he wrote on Twitter.
