BREAKING
Araghchi: Iran adopted a constructive approach in its engagement to ensure the European Union and the E3 fully honored their commitments and lifted all sanctions.
Araghchi: After a year of Iran’s full compliance with the agreement, it began implementing gradual, proportionate, and reversible compensatory steps in accordance with its recognized rights under the deal.
Araghchi: Iran demonstrated the utmost restraint in the face of repeated and fundamental violations and made extensive efforts to restore balance and preserve the agreement.
In his letter, Araghchi stated: The E3 failed to fulfill their obligations and instead imposed additional illegal sanctions on Iranian individuals and institutions.
Araghchi: These coercive measures constituted a grave violation of international law and the UN Charter, causing severe disruption in the implementation of the agreement.
Araghchi: Washington initially refrained from fulfilling its commitments, then withdrew from the agreement, reimposed its illegal and unilateral sanctions, and even expanded them.
Araghchi: UN Security Council Resolution 2231 has expired and fully ceased to be in effect as of today, in accordance with its explicit provisions.
Iranian Foreign Ministry: Reimposing sanctions on Iran is illegal

Ukraine has named the former chief of its armed forces Valery Zaluzhny on Thursday as its new envoy to the UK, a month after being removed from his position as the country's commander-in-chief. The announcement came as Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky met British Defense Secretary Grant Shapps. 

In a statement, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry said that Zelensky "approved the candidacy of Valery Zaluzhny for the post of Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of Ukraine to the United Kingdom."

Zelensky praised the appointment of Zaluzhny, saying the alliance with Britain, one of his country's main backers since the war in Ukraine broke out, "should only get stronger," adding that "Zaluzhny told me that this is the direction he would like to take, diplomacy."

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba considered the appointment a "logical step," stressing that Zaluzhny brought the necessary "understanding of the military context" to the post. 

Last month, Ukraine's Defense Minister, Rustem Umerov, announced the removal of Zaluzhny, who has overseen Kiev's forces during the war in the country.

"Today, a decision was made to change the leadership of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. I am sincerely grateful to Valery Fedorovych (Zaluzhny) for all his achievements and victories," Umerov said on social media. 

Reports confirmed that Zaluzhny had been removed from his post as commander-in-chief of Ukraine's military by Zelensky, months after increasing tensions between the two, and especially with US military leaders over how to conduct the counteroffensive against Russia, Politico reported.
