Speaking at a local ceremony on Saturday Jahangiri said ‘we are trapped into a complex global and regional context; the role of extremist groups and the Zionist lobby since the beginning of Islamic Revolution was to make the world against Iran.'
He added that the Zionist lobby was influential in this period and has been able to bring up some Islamic countries against Iran.
Pointing to new US administration, the vice president said "regional and global conditions clearly show the presence of a risky process; the United States seeks to impose the idea that Iran is violating JCPOA and provoke the international community against Iran, a move which has not been successful so far.”
Jahangiri added that along with these conspiracies, the United States is trying to show Iran suffers from a high-risk, unstable atmosphere.
He reiterated that if the other side takes any action which the JCPOA monitoring board recognize as an act contrary to the deal, Iran would strongly react.
