Addis Ababa, 9 May 2018: The Chairperson of the African Union Commission, Moussa Faki Mahamat, expresses deep concern at the decision of the United States Government to unilaterally withdraw from the July 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPoA) on the Iran nuclear programme and reimpose sanctions on Iran. He notes that the International Atomic Energy Agency has repeatedly con- firmed Iran’s full compliance with the terms of the Agreement, which was unani- mously endorsed by the United Nations Security Council.
