'We are now preparing a list of US violations and infrigements on sound implementation of the JCPOA which will be reported to the government,' he said.

According to IRNA, Takht-e Ravanchi told reporters that from the early stages of implementing the nuclear accord with G5+1, the Iranian Board of JCPOA has precisely monitored to what extent the parties to JCPOA honored their commitments.

Iran has fully observed its commitments to JCPOA, he said adding that other parties are expected to follow suit.

There is no doubt that the special board of JCPOA commission will make the final decision on how to deal with the US for infringements on sound implementation of the JCPOA, he said.

In response to a question posed on Iran's commitment to Financial Action Task Force (FATF), known in French language Groupe d'action financière (GAFI), he said that FATF is independent of JCPOA and it deals with money laundering in line with the international campaign against terrorism.

Takht-e Ravanchi brushed aside the sensitivity about FATF expressed by the Iranian radical camp, saying that the Government never makes compromise about independence of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Takht-e Ravanchi made it clear that Iran has carried out a series of negotiations to harmonize its financial system with the international monitory system including FATF and all decisions have been made by the Supreme National Security Council as well as top officials.
