IRAN: US VIOLATED NUKE DEAL

TEHRAN: Iran said yesterday that new sanctions imposed by the US had violated its 2015 nuclear deal with world powers and it would respond. “We believe that the nuclear deal has been violated and we will react appropriately,” deputy foreign minister Abbas Araghchi said following news that US President Donald Trump had signed the new sanctions into law. “We will certainly not fall into the trap of US policy and Trump, and our reaction will be very carefully considered.” – AFP
