Mehr News Agency, Provincial Group – Mahmoud navaser: Kuwait, as a key player in the Persian gulf region, holds a pivotal role in Middle Eastern political and security equations. Through active and balanced diplomacy, it has served as a bridge fostering closer ties between the Islamic Republic of Iran and other regional and extraregional countries. Amid complex regional developments, Kuwait’s diplomatic efforts to reduce tensions and enhance stability have gained special importance.
The city of Abadan-iran’s closest point to Kuwait-is a strategic gateway connecting the two countries. It holds significant regional interaction status and also symbolizing historical and geographical bonds between Iran and Kuwait.
In this upcoming conversation, Mohammad Totonchi, Iran’s ambassador to Kuwait, reiterates Tehran’s principled stance on the unlawful activation of the snapback mechanism by three European countries while emphasizing Iran’s rights regarding its nuclear program. He also highlights Kuwait’s decisive role in mediation efforts aimed at strengthening regional stability.
The discussion demonstrates how Kuwait can act as an anchor for aligning perspectives and facilitating regional dialog while stressing the importance of establishing protective regional mechanisms against common threats.
Recently we have witnessed three European countries emphasizing activating the snapback mechanism against iran. What is Tehran’s response?
Iran unequivocally considers this effort illegal with no legal basis whatsoever. Following America’s unlawful withdrawal from JCPOA (Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action), Iran fully completed dispute settlement mechanisms (DRM) in good faith. Thus any renewed attempt by these three European countries (E3) to activate this mechanism lacks legal authority and constitutes an abuse of process.
Have European parties fulfilled their obligations under JCPOA and UN Security Council Resolution 2231 appropriately?
No. France, Germany, and Britain not only failed economically but actively participated alongside America’s maximum pressure campaign on Tehran. Their inability to establish effective financial channels or respond adequately to U.S. secondary sanctions clearly demonstrates their failure in honoring commitments.
Iran has provided documented evidence through multiple official communications with the United Nations-including letters dated November 2018, May 2019, march 2020-highlighting Europe’s failures related to clauses 3, 4 & 5 within Annex II of JCPOA along with their inability to implement safeguards against U.S.-led secondary sanctions.
In your view do European stances on recent Israeli attacks on Iranian facilities affect their standing within JCPOA?
During Israel’s june 2025 attack on Iranian nuclear sites France and Britain directly supported these strikes by providing military equipment and intelligence assistance while defending what they deem Israel’s “right to self-defence.”
Tehran considers such measures complicity in war crimes from both moral-legal positions-and argues these nations not only violated international law but lost ethical-political legitimacy when levying fresh accusations against Iran.Their active involvement in backing attacks-including militarily or politically-disqualifies them as ”good-faith participants” under JCPOA terms while holding them responsible accomplices for war crimes.
Is Iran still committed to JCPOA?
Iran acted patiently with goodwill for over one year beyond American withdrawal despite Europe’s non-performance-even exceeding its own commitments at times-but after receiving no effective response began implementing corrective measures gradually according Clause 36 of JCPOA.
Still Tehran remains ready for full compliance should reciprocal fulfillment occur from other parties.
Legally speaking: Are these three Europeans authorized under dispute resolution mechanisms (snapback) usage?
The principles underpinning international law hold that any party violating agreements cannot claim corresponding benefits.
Since Iran legally concluded all dispute settlements successfully-and given Europe failed post-U.S exit obligations plus openly endorsing Israeli aggression protected facilities-it essentially ceased being bona fide participants.
Therefore attempts by those states at invoking snapback are ethically improper politically hazardous; posing direct threats toward international peace & security.
What dose Iran request from global community & UN Security council regarding this issue?
Iran demands that no permission be granted allowing these Europeans misusing resolutions they themselves broke thereby undermining UNSC credibility.
Iran urges Europe & US halt all illegal acts including obvious breaches towards both JCPOA framework & international law-as stands aggressive incursions inflicted losses.
It seeks full reparations covering massive human/material damages caused due especially invalid U.S exit combined active complicity during Israeli aggression execution upon Iranian territory safeguarded via treaty provisions relating resolution 2231.
POTENTIAL DIPLOMATIC ROLE OF KUWAIT IN ALIGNING IRANIAN AND EUROPEAN VIEWS? HOW DOES TEHRAN ASSESS GULF STATES INITIATIVES TO PROMOTE REGIONAL STABILITY?

CLEAR MESSAGE FROM IRAN TO GULF STATES REGARDING ITS NUCLEAR PROGRAM？
Iranian nuclear activities pose zero threat especially regarding neighboring states being fundamentally non-military -no International Atomic Energy Agency report ever confirmed diversion towards weaponization.
Such false claims long propagated solely by regimes themselves possessing nuclear arms without adherence maintaining global norms reflect blatant hypocrisy actual source threatening entire region is pernicious Zionist entity harboring malicious agendas targeting all groups therein collectively safeguarding mutual rights crystallizes focal alignment driving politico-security convergence among diverse Gulf actors today .
