All 28 EU member states stand united behind the Iran deal, which has been effective in limiting the country's nuclear programme.
The EU today adopted new sanctions in response to North Korea's missile programme, aiming to pressure Pyongyang into dialogue aiming at peaceful, verifiable denuclearisation. The sanctions complement and reinforce the UN Security Council sanctions, and take effect immediately.
The EU stands firm behind 2015 deal on Iran's nuclear programme. The deal makes the world safer and the EU expects all parties to stick to it and will continue to guarantee its implementation.
The Iran nuclear deal is being fully implemented and should be preserved, said EU High Representative Mogherini in her capacity as Chair of the Joint Commission of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.
The EU today added new entries to its target list of people and entities linked to the North Korean regime, as the international community ups the pressure in response to yet another missile launch today by Pyongyang, which EU High Representative Mogherini labelled an "outrageous provocation". The EU is also working on additional autonomous restrictive measures, with the aim of peaceful, verifiable and irreversible denuclearisation."
