Araqchi in Europe to Push for JCPOA Implementation

Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi is visiting Europe to meet senior officials to press for the fulfillment of their commitments under the 2015 nuclear deal. 
He met Italian officials, academics and media people in Rome on Thursday and was to travel to Poland and Spain on the next leg of his European tour.
“We will talk with European countries about [measures to] withstand the United States’ sanctions,” he told the news agency before the meetings, adding that the discussions would especially include the financial mechanisms proposed by the European Union to safeguard mutual trade.
