Awake Goy TASS– Moscow warns Washington against attempts to interfere in Iran’s internal affairs, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov told TASS on Thursday.
“We warn the US against attempts to interfere in the internal affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran,” he stressed. “What is happening there is an internal affair, which attracts the attention of the international community.
However, despite numerous attempts to distort the essence of what is going on, I am certain that our neighbor, the country that is friendly to us, will be able to overcome the current difficulties and emerge from the current period as a stronger country and a reliable partner in solving various problems, including those related to the further implementation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA)”.
The United States demonstrates a destructive approach towards the JCPOA by demanding the revision of some provisions of this agreement, he told, commenting on remarks by US Vice President Michael Pence that the US’ objective is a more long-term agreement on Iran’s nuclear program. “All the terms, timeframes and frameworks that were set in the JCPOA were the result of very difficult and very lengthy negotiations,” the senior diplomat recalled.
“Therefore, taking out of the package arbitrarily only what suits the Americans and demanding amending those provisions, which, for some reasons that are unknown to us, do not suit the Americans is a destructive approach. It can undermine the agreement reached with difficulty.”.
Sergey Ryabkov also added that The United States is intentionally using the situation in Iran to try to undermine the sustainability of the JCPOA. “The current situation when Washington yields to temptation to take advantage of the moment to bring up new questions with regard to the JCPOA testifies to a deliberate attempt to undermine the global community’s commitment to the JCPOA,” the senior diplomat stressed. “That does no credit to our American counterparts.”.
