Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has signed a decree enacting a decision of the National Security and Defense Council (NSDC) dated May 20, 2016 on execution of UN Security Council Resolution 2231 that endorsed the July 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and great powers.

The decision of the NSDC has been posted on the website of the head of state.

According to the decision, Ukraine each time is obliged to receive a permit from the UN Security Council to supply military or double-purpose goods that could be used to make nuclear or missile weapons, provide services related to the above-mentioned goods (technical preparation, consultations, financing), apart from exceptions bespoken in advance.

Ukraine is also obliged to inspect all goods moved to Iran if there are suspicions that they could be military or double-purpose goods, as well as vessels if there are suspicions that they could ship these goods.

Ukraine’s Verkhovna Rada approved the resolution to approve NSDC decision No. 2231 on July 14, 2016.
