Ali Akbar Salehi and the EU Commissioner for Climate Action and Energy Miguel Arias Cañete met on Sunday to discuss Iran and the EU’s possible nuclear cooperation. Salehi said that after JCPOA implementation, Iran had hosted many EU delegations, and “now we see a full European engagement in the issue.”
“The 3rd chapter of JCPOA provides articles by which the EU countries should cooperate with Iran in nuclear research and development; today’s meeting with the EU commissioners will be communicated to the public in a joint statement,” Salehi told the press. “We hope to see the ever-increasing pace of bilateral cooperation in different nuclear fields, for which Fordow facilities could be an excellent ground for cooperation with the EU in laboratory settings, especially cooperation in the framework of ITER.”
