The UN Security Council on Friday, September 19, restored restrictions against Iran, which acted before the 2015 nuclear agreement, rejecting the proposal to extend the softening regime of sanctions. Only four countries voted for extending the softening of sanctions - Russia, China, Algeria and Pakistan, Ukrinform reports. Denmark, France, Greece, Panama, Sierra Leone, Slovenia, Somalia, Great Britain and the United States voted against. Gayana and the Republic of Korea abstained. If the resolution had been adopted, it would stop the UN sanctions imposed on Iran before signing a joint comprehensive action plan (SVPD) of 2015, thereby preserving the mitigation of the restrictions provided by Tehran as part of the agreement. Before voting, France emphasized the violation of the nuclear program by Iran and the restriction of Magate access to key objects. The Permanent Representative Werome Bonnapon noted that the Islamic Republic has accumulated reserves of enriched uranium, which significantly exceed the limit provided for by the agreement. From now on, the following sanctions were restored against Iran: the embargo for the supply of weapons and military equipment; restrictions on nuclear activities; financial and banking prohibitions; restrictions on aviation and transport related to Iran and Iranian goods; sanctions against specific persons. Recall that in 2015 Iran signed a joint comprehensive action plan (SVPD) with the leading world powers, aimed at solving problems related to its nuclear program. However, in 2018, the Donald Trump administration decided to get out of this agreement, restoring all American sanctions against Iran. . Earlier it was reported that the United States increased pressure on accomplices of Russia and Iran for bypassing sanctions. News from Telegram and WhatsApp. Subscribe to our channels https: // t.
