The decision by France, Germany and Britain to trigger the snapback mechanism is unlawful and will have consequences, an Iranian foreign ministry official said on Monday.
“The activation of the snapback mechanism by France, Germany and Britain is “illegal and provocative and will carry consequences,” Hossein Noushabadi, director-general for parliamentary affairs at Iran’s foreign ministry, said.
“The international community must reject this illegal act by the three countries and avoid granting it any legitimacy.”
