TEHRAN (Press TV) -- Foreign Minister Muhammad Javad Zarif says the Europeans do not seem ready yet to put investment into saving the 2015 nuclear agreement with Iran, despite their claim to be willing to retain it.
"The Europeans claim they were willing to maintain the JCPOA, but we have not seen Europe yet to be ready for an investment," he told reporters upon arrival in New York, where he is going to attend a high-level UN meeting. Expressing one's interest and preparedness to save an international agreement "is totally different from being ready to make the investments required to save that deal and the Europeans have not done that yet," Zarif said.
