The United Nations arms embargo on Iran will expire in October, despite repeated U.S. efforts to extend it.
The U.S. has now threatened to unilaterally trigger an automatic extension to the arms embargo under the terms of the JCPOA. But Iran and the other signatories have argued that the U.S. cannot do so, as Trump withdrew the U.S. from the deal in 2018. As a non-member, they argue, the U.S. has no legal right to trigger the snapback.
Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif said Monday that the Trump administration has"no leg to stand on" for a potential snapback. Zarif cited comments by former national security adviser John Bolton in aop-ed published Monday, in which Bolton said the attempted snapback"isn't worth the risk." Asked if he would take part in the summit, Trump told reporters:"I hear there's something, but I haven't been told of it yet."
