Tehran, Sept. 21 (Xinhua) — Iran's Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) announced Saturday that the country's cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) would be "effectively" suspended after the UN Security Council voted not to extend the lifting of international sanctions against Tehran.
The statement from the Supreme National Security Council details the results of the council meeting chaired by President Masoud Pezeshkian.
At the meeting, the Supreme National Security Council discussed what it called the "ill-considered" actions of France, the United Kingdom, and Germany, collectively known as the "E3," regarding Iran's nuclear program. The council announced that Tehran's cooperation with the IAEA would be effectively suspended in response to the European countries' actions, despite Iran's continued cooperation with the agency and proposals for resolving the nuclear issue.
The Supreme National Security Council instructed the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs to continue consultations to protect national interests in accordance with the council's decisions.
On Friday, the UN Security Council failed to pass a resolution that would have extended sanctions relief on Iran under the 2015 nuclear deal, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). Last month, the EU3 launched the snapback mechanism, which allows the UN to reimpose sanctions within 30 days if Iran is found guilty of violating the agreement. The sanctions are expected to take effect at the end of this month.
