EghtesadOnline: Iran said on Friday the steps being taken regarding the nuclear deal do not fall within the authority of the International Atomic Energy Agency’s Board of Governors, calling the US request for a meeting of the nuclear watchdog "sad irony".

EghtesadOnline: Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Iran's surpassing of the enriched uranium stockpile limit set by the 2015 nuclear deal was not in violation of the accord and the steps can be reversed as soon as the remaining parties fulfill their obligations.
