During a visit to Moscow, Foreign Minister Javad Zarif discussed a draft U.S. UN Security Council resolution aiming to extend Iran’s arms embargo beyond October and asserted: “three JCPOA members [ie, Russia, Iran and China] are totally against these steps… [and] don’t agree with the concerns and compromise proposals of some European parties to the JCPOA, since any steps in this area would violate Resolution 2231”.
