Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has accused French President Emmanuel Macron of contradicting himself on the nuclear issue, citing Macron's past stance on the JCPOA versus his recent claim of always opposing Iran's nuclear activity. Araghchi highlighted Macron's 2018 insistence before the US Congress that France would not leave the JCPOA, which allowed Iran to enrich uranium to a certain level, contrasting it with Macron's recent statement that France had always been "resolutely opposed to any form of nuclear activity in Iran."
