In a video message directed to participants of the Moscow Conference on Non-proliferation on December 5, 2022, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov declared that the United States government must quickly lift all “illegal” sanctions it has subjected Iran to.
“Washington has not given up on the policy of ‘maximum pressure’ in relation to the nuclear deal with Iran,” the Russian foreign minister declared. Lavrov was referring to former US President Donald Trump’s policy towards Iran after his administration exited the 2015 nuclear deal, also known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
Lavrov called on American authorities to “lift all illegal sanctions against Iran as soon as possible and irreversibly and ensure the strict implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 2231” which issued an endorsement of the Iran Nuclear Deal.
