"The JCPOA includes Iran's obligations, and there is also a mechanism that allows sanctions to be re-imposed if the situation with the nuclear program of this country does not improve," Kallas said.

"The Iranian economy is not working very well, and this is not good for the Iranian people, we are working to ensure that Iran does not resume its nuclear program," she noted.
