Russia asks not to ‘overdramatise’ Iran’s uranium enrichment despite setback to 2015 deal

Moscow, Jan 4 (Sputnik) Iran’s decision to resume enriching uranium up to 20 percent purity, in a break with the 2015 nuclear deal, is regrettable but does not need to be exaggerated, a Russian ambassador to Vienna-based organizations said Monday.
"We aren’t enthusiastic about further deviation of Tehran from its commitments under #JCPOA. But there is nothing to overdramatise. The nuclear programme remains fully transparent and verifiable," Mikhail Ulyanov tweeted.
He argued that Iran’s decision was predictable in light of a bill that the Iranian parliament passed last month. The legislation allowed uranium enrichment to pre-2015 levels.
