The
Republic of Cyprus welcomes the conclusion of a framework agreement on the
nuclear programme of Iran
The
Republic of Cyprus welcomes the conclusion of a political framework agreement
between the group E3+3 (United Kingdom, France, Germany, USA, Russia and China)
and Iran on the nuclear programme of Iran. It expresses its full support to the
Agreement, which contributes to the goal of a Middle East free from the threat
of weapons of mass destruction. The Agreement is a very positive development at
a critical juncture when the Middle East is convulsed by armed conflict, the
rise of terrorism and extremism.
This
development increases the responsibility of Iran, to hold good neighbourly
relations without interference in the internal affairs of other countries in the
region, in order to allay the fears and apprehensions that ensue from the
conclusion of this agreement. Cyprus expresses its satisfaction for this
development and is looking forward to the completion of a final comprehensive
agreement by 30 June 2015.
