The Iran nuclear agreement makes the world a safer place, the British Government announced, adding that they regret the decision by the United States of America (USA) to reimpose sanctions on Iran.
British Prime Minister Theresa May's spokesman, James Slack, said that Britain fully supports the expansion of trade cooperation with Iran.
"We still believe that the Iran nuclear deal makes the world a safer place, and our position is that as long as Iran fulfills its obligations under the deal by respecting strict limits on its nuclear activity, we will be committed to it," Slek said, according to Tanjug.
As stated, US sanctions against Iran concern the transport, financial and energy sectors.
It is the second package of sanctions since US President Donald Trump withdrew from the nuclear deal with Iran in May.
US sanctions will also punish countries that do not stop importing Iranian oil, as well as foreign companies that work with Iranian companies on the "black list".
According to US officials, the sanctions will remain in place until Iran stops supporting terrorism, withdraws from Syria and completely halts its nuclear weapons and ballistic missile development program.
Iran has previously said it is not concerned about the reimposition of US sanctions on the country's oil and financial sectors.
American sanctions were welcomed by Israel, while the European Union (EU), France, Germany and the United Kingdom previously said in a joint statement that they regret Washington's decision.
