Nuclear deal warning

DUBAI: Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei yesterday warned his country’s government not to be deceived by European signatories of the nuclear deal with major powers, now under threat after a US withdrawal.

“America’s enmity towards Iran is obvious. Our enemies’ heart is full of enmity… our officials should not be deceived by the Europeans,” he said.

Iran has called on the EU to do more to show its commitment to the deal, despite a new European mechanism for non-dollar trade with Iran to avoid US sanctions.
