Pakistan's official response surfaces over US withdrawal from Iran Nuclear deal

ISLAMABAD - Pakistan says Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) represents a very good example of a negotiated settlement of complex issues, through dialogue and diplomacy.

In a statement issued on Wednesday, Foreign Office said Pakistan had welcomed the JCPOA when it was concluded, and hoped that all parties will find a way for its continuation, especially when the International Atomic Energy Agency has repeatedly verified Iran’s compliance.

It said Pakistan noted the willingness of the parties to the Agreement to work together on upholding their respective commitments as stipulated in the JCPOA, despite US decision to withdraw from it.

The statement said Pakistan believes that international treaties and agreements concluded through painstaking negotiations are sacrosanct.
