Mogherini: Protecting EU Economic Interests No Mean Feat

European Union foreign ministers are seeking to protect the bloc's strategic and economic interests in Iran in the wake of the US withdrawal from the international nuclear deal.
EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini said Monday that "nobody believes it is going to be an easy exercise but we are determined to do it," AP reported.
"Today on the agenda of foreign ministers we have first and foremost our work to preserve the nuclear deal with Iran. We have been acting already at the EU level to put in place some measures to make sure that the nuclear agreement is preserved and the economic investments from the European side, but also from other sides in the world are protected," Mogherini told reporters ahead of the meeting.
