“The imposition of the new [EU] sanctions indicates that the European Union has been insincere and hypocritical in the nuclear negotiations,” said Ismail Kowsari on Friday.
“They claimed that they seek negotiations to reach positive results, but their latest measure proved their hollow commitments to the world,” he added.
He said Iran had suggested the issue of sanctions to be on the agenda of the talks, but the P5+1 avoided addressing the issue, which indicated their pursuit of other objectives in the talks.
