TEHRAN. — Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif says the issue of reversibility to the conditions before a recent agreement between the Islamic Republic and the P5+1 is not just an option for Iran’s international partners but also for Tehran.

Addressing an open session of the Majlis (Parliament) yesterday, Zarif referred to potential concerns over a mechanism for the reversibility of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) sanctions against Iran and explained that the potential restoration of the sanctions against Iran will not be an easy move for the Council and will harm its standing.

He said that even a potential vote for the return of the sanctions at the UNSC through a veto will be costly for the UNSC as world countries have little regard for resolutions approved with a veto. Zarif and Head of the Atomic Energy Organisation of Iran (AEOI) Ali Akbar Salehi participated in yesterday’s open session of the Majlis to brief parliamentarians on the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) concluded between Iran and the P5+1 group of countries on July 14.

The mechanism for the restoration of sanctions that Zarif was talking about is one under which any of the six countries in the P5+1 can raise what it considers as a violation of the nuclear agreement by Iran. — Press TV.
