10 years after the historic nuclear deal, sanctions on Iran are back

Comprehensive UN economic and military sanctions have been reimposed on Iran, 10 years after they were lifted in a landmark international agreement over its nuclear program.

The new measures came into effect after the deal's three European partners, the United Kingdom, France and Germany, activated the so-called "snapback" mechanism, accusing Iran of continued escalation towards creating nuclear weapons and a lack of cooperation.

Iran suspended inspections of its nuclear facilities, a legal obligation under the terms of the 2015 deal, after Israel and the US bombed some of its nuclear sites and military bases in June.

Its president, Masoud Pezeshkian, insisted last week that the country had no intention of developing nuclear weapons.

The reimposition of sanctions, which Pezeshkian described as unfair and illegal, is the latest blow to an agreement that was hailed as a turning point in Western relations with the long-isolated Islamist nation when it was first reached.

The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) places limits on Iran's nuclear facilities, its stockpile of enriched uranium and the amount of research and development it can undertake./ CNA
