Iran must fundamentally change its behaviour before any EU sanctions can be lifted, Reuters reports quoting European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
“The principle of sanctions is that we need real change on the ground before we can think about lifting them. Sanctions are in place to change behaviour. So if behaviour is changing credibly and verifiably, then you can lift sanctions”, she says, speaking at a press conference in Evian, France, ahead of the G7 summit.
