Iran urges EU to do more to save nuclear deal with Tehran

Iran has urged European powers to do more to save the nuclear deal with the Islamic republic, and accused Washington of having an "obsession" with Iran.

Addressing at  Munich Security Conference Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said that Iran  is committed to a 2015 nuclear deal with world powers and Europe has to do more if it wants to preserve relations with Iran.

Zarif's speech came a day after U.S. Vice President Mike Pence urged Germany, France and Britain to follow Washington in withdrawing from the deal and to "stop undermining US sanctions."

The United States withdrew from the 2015 Iran nuclear deal in May last year and reimposed sanctions against Tehran.
