Iran's international nuclear agreement or the so-called Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) was signed between the country and P5+1 countries (Russia, China, UK, Germany, France, and the US) in 2015, but the US scrapped it on May 18, 2018, re-imposing more sanctions on Iran.

Speaking in response to a phone call from Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, Emir of Qatar, on Thursday, Seyyed Ebrahim Raisi referred to numerous official reports by the International Atomic Energy Agency that the nuclear program of the Islamic Republic of Iran is completely transparent and has never deviated from the legal path.
