ELN network member Nathalie Tocci was quoted in the Washington Post during the ELN’s global press call on the Iran crisis.

“Over a year and a half ago, we were in a situation in which Iran was in full compliance of its JCPOA commitments — a situation in which maritime security in the Gulf was far higher than it is today and in which we were simply not talking about the risk of a regional if not a broader global escalation”

“This is not a chicken and egg situation,this is a situation that has a clear cause, and that cause is the violation by the United States of the JCPOA.”
