Michel: EU wants to keep nuclear deal with Iran
By EUobserver
After a telephone call with Iranian president Hassan Rouhani, EU Council president Charles Michel tweeted that the nuclear deal with Iran (JCPOA) "remains crucial for global security." The read-out of the conversation says that Michel asked Rouhani "to avoid posing irreversible acts." The EU wants to continue with the nuclear deal, despite the call from US president Donald Trump to Europe on Wednesday to jettison it.
