Special EU channel to allow trade with Iran, circumvent US sanctions is now operational - statement Special EU channel to allow trade with Iran, circumvent US sanctions is now operational - statement
(32 minutes later)
A special trade channel that will allow European firms to bypass American sanctions on Iran is operational - that was the outcome of the meeting between the countries who singed the nuclear deal ditched by US.
The EU called the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) a "key element of global nuclear non-proliferation." The deal was in limbo after Washington left it a year ago and started piling up sanctions on Tehran, hampering its trade with other countries.
Now French, British and German officials say the trade mechanism, dubbed Instex, is operational. 
 The statement comes after the remaining signatures of JCPOA gathered in Vienna for a meeting that Iranian ministry spokesman Abbas Mousavi called  "the last chance for the remaining parties...to gather and see how they can meet their commitments towards Iran."
