TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - The Iranian delegation is led by Deputy Foreign Minister for Legal and International Affairs Abbas Araqchi and Deputy Foreign Minister for American and European Affairs Majid Takht-Ravanchi.
 
They separately met with Secretary General of European External Action Service (EEAS) Helga Schmid, as well as Chinese and Russian delegations.

Under the agreement, limits were put on Iran’s nuclear activities in exchange for, among other things, the removal of all nuclear-related bans against the Islamic Republic.
 
The IAEA has on multiple occasions confirmed Iran’s adherence to its commitments under the JCPOA.
