UN head disappointed at US decision on Iran deal

None

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said Tuesday he was "deeply disappointed" at the US decision to pull out of the Iran nuclear deal and called on the five other signatories "to abide fully" by their commitments.

 

The UN chief also called on all other UN member states to support the 2015 agreement.

 

Guterres reiterated that the deal "represents a major achievement in nuclear non-proliferation and diplomacy and has contributed to regional and international peace and security."

 

He said it's essential that "all concerns" about implementing the agreement be addressed through the mechanisms in the deal.
