Iran warns France against ‘complicating' the situation ahead of IAEA meeting

TEHRAN – Ahead of the IAEA Board of Governors meeting on Wednesday, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warned his French counterpart that adopting a censure resolution against the Islamic Republic will make the situation “more complicated”.

Reportedly, the IAEA board plans to put to vote a resolution against Iran on Wednesday. The resolution is drafted by Britain, France and Germany, the three European countries still party to the 2015 nuclear deal that is on life-saving.

Araghchi strongly criticized the move by the European Troika, calling it “unjustified and provocative”.
