Rasa - The United Nations Security Council should come up with a solution to prevent the United States from imposing unilateral sanctions on other countries, says an academic, adding that the world body should take practical steps to preserve the Iran nuclear deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

RNA - “What we need to do right now is these politicians, they need to get together, perhaps for symbolic reasons come up with another resolution on top of 2231 condemning Washington for these illegal acts and gestures and draconian sanctions but come up with a resolution, come up with solutions to circumvent Washington’s draconian sanctions,” Alexander Azadgan, professor of International Political Economy, said in an interview.

 

“At this point everybody has supported the JCPOA. What we need to demand from these politicians both at a sovereign nation level as well as the UN Security Council level is to come up with solutions to not allow Washington to impose its sanctions on everybody else,” he added.

 

According to Press TV, Members of the Security Council have thrown their full support for the 2015 Iran nuclear deal despite pressures by the US which was criticized at the chamber for exiting the agreement in defiance of its international objections.

 

Security Council members confirmed at the Wednesday meeting that the JCPOA had yielded broad positive results and lauded Iran’s commitment to the deal as certified in thirteen consecutive reports by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The meeting was held on the implementation of Resolution 2231, which has endorsed the deal.
