However, whereas two thirds of them had complained ...

He also announced that the US would re-impose sanctions on Iran that had been lifted as part of the implementation of the JCPOA.

Consagrada por los Tratados (artículo 20 del Tratado de Funcionamiento de la Unión Europea y artículo 9 del Tratado de la Unión Europea), la ciudadanía europea constituye la base de la formación de la identidad europea.
