M. Jean-Yves Le Drian, Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs, spoke to his Iranian counterpart, Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, on the telephone today, Tuesday 9 November. In line with the 29 October communiqué by the heads of State and government of the E3 and the United States, he emphasized the importance and urgency of resuming the negotiations interrupted by Iran on 20 June 2021, on the basis negotiated until that date, with the aim of a swift return to the JCPOA.

The Minister also signalled the importance of Iran’s full cooperation with the IAEA, in the run-up to the Agency’s next Board of Governors’ meeting.

He also expressed France’s unfailing commitment to Iraq’s security and stability, following Sunday’s attack on the Iraqi Prime Minister, which we strongly condemned.
