TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The
President of Luxembourg’s Chamber of Deputies highlighted Iran’s constructive
role in the region and in the battle against terrorism, stressing that
confronting the phenomenon requires all-out international cooperation.
Luxembourg is ready to
cooperate with the Islamic Republic on fighting terrorism, Mars Di Bartolomeo
said Saturday during a joint press conference with his Iranian counterpart Ali
Larijani in Tehran.
Stressing that terrorism
is a global issue and that Iran cannot uproot it single-handedly, he called for
all-out cooperation against it at the international level.
He also hailed last
year’s nuclear deal between Iran and six world powers, saying “this opportunity
ought to be seized” and efforts should be made in line with restoring peace and
security across the globe.
His visit to Iran came a
couple of months after the European country’s Foreign Minister Jean Asselborn
made a trip to Tran in late November 2015, during which he met senior Iranian
officials including his counterpart Mohammad Javad Zarif and President Hassan
Rouhani.
Luxembourg, officially
the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, is a landlocked country in Western Europe. It is
bordered by Belgium to the west and north, Germany to the east, and France to
the south.
The European state was
one of the countries that played host to the nuclear talks between Iran and the
Group 5+1 (Russia, China, the US, Britain, France, and Germany), which ended in
a comprehensive nuclear deal back in July 2015.
Iran and the Group 5+1
(also known as E3+3 and P5+1) on July 14 reached a conclusion on a 159-page
nuclear agreement that would terminate all sanctions imposed on Tehran over its
nuclear energy program after coming into force.
Afterwards, the 15-memebr
United Nations Security Council passed a resolution that endorsed the JCPOA.
According to the UNSC
Resolution 2231, all previous UNSC sanctions imposed on Iran over its nuclear
program will be terminated when the JCPOA takes effect.
