Russia's U.N. ambassador slammed the United States on Tuesday as 'ridiculous' for arguing it was still a member of the Iran nuclear deal two years after it quit, so Washington could trigger a return of all United Nations sanctions on Tehran.
NEW YORK - Russia’s U.N. ambassador slammed the United States on Tuesday as “ridiculous” for arguing it was still a member of the Iran nuclear deal two years after it quit, so Washington could trigger a return of all United Nations sanctions on Tehran.
The U.N. Security Council enshrined the deal in a resolution that still names the United States as a participant, even though it left. U.S. President Donald Trump quit the agreement in 2018 and described the accord from Barack Obama’s presidency as “the worst deal ever.” “This is ridiculous,” Russia’s U.N. Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia told reporters. “They are not members, they have no right to trigger,” he said.
