Iran, P5+1 joint statement calling for removal of all anti-Iran sanctions

Iran and P5+1 call, in a joint statement, for the removal of all anti-Iran sanctions.

Iran and P5+1 have adopted a joint statement after marathon talks in the Swiss city of Lausanne calling, among other things, for the removal of UNSC resolutions and sanctions against the Islamic Republic.

The statement was read out in a joint press conference in the Swiss city by the EU high representative, Federica Mogherini, and Iran’s Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif on Thursday.

The statement said that all multilateral European and unilateral US financial sanctions will be lifted without requiring Iran to suspend or stop nuclear activities.
