U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Britain's Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab visit Epic Games Lab in LondonThe Trump administration has accused the United States' European allies of "siding with the ayatollahs."However, the UK, France, and Germany have refused to comply.
The Trump administration is seeking to reimpose sanctions on Tehran as it believes Iran has violated the terms of the 2015 agreement. Boris Johnson's UK government this week released a joint statement with France and Germany telling the US that it could not use "snapback" measures to reimpose sanctions as it is no longer part of the nuclear deal.
Built into the 2015 agreement, "snapback" measures give a participating country the power to trigger the re-imposition of sanctions on Iran within 30 days if it notifies the UN Security Council that Tehran has violated the terms of the agreement.
