The JCPOA is an international agreement on the nuclear program of Iran reached in Vienna on July 14. 2015 between Iran and the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council. namely China. France. Russia. United Kingdom as well as Germany and the European Union.
`The JCPOA represents a significant gain for verification. As of today. I can state that Iran is implementing its nuclear-related commitments. It is essential that Iran continues to fully implement those commitments. If the JCPOA were to fail. it would be a great loss for nuclear verification and for multilateralism.` he added.
