(asked on 11th March 2022) - View Source
Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what assessment she has made of the implications for her policy on regional stability of the technical abilities and knowledge Iran has acquired during its progressive breaches of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.
This question was answered on 21st March 2022
Iran has been out of compliance with its Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPoA) commitments since 2019. Iran's nuclear programme is more advanced today than it has ever been and is undermining regional and international security. The deal on the table in Vienna talks would return Iran to full compliance with its JCPoA commitments. It would reverse Iran's nuclear escalation, return its nuclear programme to strict JCPoA limits and restore extensive monitoring by the International Atomic Energy Agency. The full implementation of the JCPoA could contribute positively to regional prosperity and security in the Middle East and beyond. We urge a conclusion of this deal.
