The European Union's measures to preserve the landmark Iran nuclear deal are motivated by security interests rather than economic interests, the bloc's foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini told reporters Monday.
She made the remarks at a press conference following the EU's monthly Foreign Affairs Council, Xinhua reported.
Regarding the EU's economic commitments to Iran, she said, "For us, this is not about economic interest; this is about security interests for the EU."
"Because in the absence of the deal with Iran, we believe the security of the region and the EU will be at stake," she said.
