In a statement made by Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it was stated that in accordance with the nuclear agreement that Tehran signed between the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) and Germany in 2015, the international embargo was lifted. of arms implemented for 13 years and the international travel ban imposed on some Iranian officials.
“It is an important day for the international community to protect UN Security Council resolution 2231 and the nuclear agreement in defiance of the efforts of the US regime,” the statement said. Statements were included. In the statement, which noted that Iran can legally buy and sell weapons from now on, “Iran can only supply the necessary weapons and equipment according to its own defense needs and export defense weapons in accordance with its own policies, no legal restrictions from any source. ” It was said.
The US administration unilaterally withdrew from the nuclear deal in 2018 and, beginning in August 2018, imposed “the most severe sanctions in history” on Iran to force a new deal, which also limited Tehran’s missile program and regional influence.
Iran, on the other hand, phased out its commitments in the deal last year when it failed to get the economic support it expected from European countries in response to US sanctions.
Attempts by the UN to renew its arms embargo on Iran since 2007 and ended today within the scope of the nuclear deal failed in August at the UNSC, citing Iran’s suspension of its commitments under the nuclear deal, and activated the mechanism (snapback) that allows the reinforcement of all sanctions.
The United States began to unilaterally implement all UN sanctions against Iran on September 19, despite the UNSC members declaring that a country that withdraws from the agreement would not be able to implement the mechanism.
The US administration announced that it would impose sanctions on countries that violate the unilateral arms embargo on Iran.
