Von der Leyen says EU sanctions on Iran hinge on credible, verifiable change

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said the European Union would consider lifting existing sanctions on Iran only if Tehran demonstrates credible and verifiable changes in its conduct. She made the remarks at a press conference in Evian, France, ahead of the G7 summit. Von der Leyen said sanctions are intended as tools to enforce behavior change, according to agency inputs.
