<p>We are committed to bringing Iran back into full compliance with its Joint Comprehensive
Plan of Action (JCPoA) commitments and preserving the nuclear deal. Iran's reduced
compliance has non-proliferation consequences. The Dispute Resolution Mechanism (DRM)
is a process to address this serious issue and we are committed to using it in good
faith to find a viable resolution to Iran's compliance issues. The UK remains determined
to work with Iran on a diplomatic way forward. As the joint statement from the Prime
Minister, President Macron and Chancellor Merkel said on 14 January we need to define
a long-term framework for Iran's nuclear programme. We need a deal which everyone
respects the terms of, and which takes the threat of a nuclear-armed Iran off the
table.</p><p>Parties to the deal control this process – it is designed to be flexible
and extendable in order to find a solution to the problem. Our objective in triggering
the DRM is to preserve the nuclear deal and bring Iran back into compliance.</p>
