Tehran, April 3, IRNA – Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said he has called on France to honor its commitments under a 2015 multinational nuclear deal with Iran – known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

Writing on his twitter account on Saturday, the foreign minister said that in a telephone call with his French counterpart Jean-Yves Le Drian earlier today, he urged France to demonstrate a constructive stance on the JCPOA in next week’s meeting in Vienna.

“I called on France to honor its commitments under the accord, and to cease abiding by illegal sanctions imposed by the US,” Zarif said.
