By releasing a statement, majority of Iranian parliamentarians declared their support for nuclear negotiating team including Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif. Lawmakers declared their support for the process of nuclear negotiations between Iran and G5+1. The MPs asked the government to present the Joint Comprehensive Plan Of Action (JCPOA)'s bill to Majlis (parliament) for discussion as soon as possible. The statement stressed that any type of nuclear deal should be ratified by Majlis before execution. On July 14, Iran and the P5+1 countries finalized the text of the agreement, dubbed the JCPOA, in the Austrian city of Vienna. Under the JCPOA, limits will be put on Iran's nuclear activities in exchange for, among other things, the removal of all economic and financial bans against the Islamic Republic. The UNSC on July 20 unanimously adopted a draft resolution turning the JCPOA into an international law. All 15 members of the UN body voted for the draft UN resolution in New York, setting the stage for the lifting of the Security Council sanctions against Iran.
