TEHRAN – The European Union (EU) and the United Nations’ nuclear agency have reaffirmed their support for the Iran nuclear deal.

Press TV reported on Saturday that the two sides had communicated the stance in a joint statement a day earlier following the fifth meeting of their senior officials.

Federica Mogherini “will remain in close contact with the IAEA regarding continued implementation of the agreement” in her capacity as coordinator of the Joint Commission established under the deal, the statement added.
