With the fallout from President Trump’s speech at the UN General Assembly still hanging over their heads a clutch of foreign ministers from Germany, France, China, Iran and the EU, among others, met to discuss Iran’s nuclear agreement, with America’s Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.<br /><br />.JZarif meets #Tillerson, P5+1 representatives over #JCPOAhttps://t.co/gQviwFZotr#Iran #IranDeal #UNGA72 #UNGA2017 pic.twitter.com/JZJJsEz4Qn— Iran (Iran) 21 septembre 2017<br /><br /><br />It was Tillerson’s first meeting with Iran’s Mohammad Javad Zarif, the highest-level meeting between the two nations since Donald Trump became president. Tillerson questioned Iran’s role in the Syrian, Iraqi and Yemeni conflicts.<br /><br />“We believe they’re now looking more carefully and seriously at that as a means to push back on this other behavior of Iran that they agree with us is just simply unacceptable,” he said. <br /><br />Destruction of #JCPOA by “rogue” newcomers to the world of politics will never impede Iran’s course of progress and advancement. #UNGA— Hassan Rouhani (@HassanRouhani) 20 septembre 2017<br /><br /><br />The EU’s High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Federica Mogherini, insists that both Europe and the International Atomic Energy Agency agree Iran is sticking to the deal.<br /><br />“There is no need to renegotiate part of the agreement because the agreement is concerning a nuclear programme, and as such, it’s delivering. We all agreed on the fact that there is no violation, that the nuclear programme-related aspects – which is all the agreement – are being fulfilled”, she insisted.<br /><br />‘The real danger is that Trump’s bellicose approach will lead to more nuclear proliferation not less’ #NuclearBan https://t.co/zi5KgayG6P— CND (@CNDuk) 20 septembre 2017<br /><br /><br />But for America Iran is “not meeting the deal’s expectations”. Washington may have thought it would usher in more regional co-operation, which it clearly has not, but then that was not part of the deal.<br /><br />.POTUS made his disdain for the #IranDeal clear; it’s on life support and I’d be stunned if we stayed in it after his #UNGA speech.— John Bolton (AmbJohnBolton) 20 septembre 2017<br />
