Iran nuclear deal: Khamenei denounces
Trump's ‘rants and whoppers’ The supreme leader of Iran has defended the 2015 nuclear deal and used strong language to accuse US President Donald Trump of ranting and lying. "I don't want to waste time on answering the rants and whoppers of the brute US president," Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said. Mr Trump has refused to certify to the US Congress that Iran is complying with the terms of the deal. He has threatened to terminate the Obama-era agreement altogether. The American leader called for the deal to be amended to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons or intercontinental ballistic missiles. Ayatollah Khamenei said he welcomed expressions of support for the accord from European states but if the US tore up the deal, Iran would "shred it to bits". Trump hands Iran chalice to Congress Trump's Iran deal speech: Full text President Trump also accused Iran of "destabilising activities" in Syria, Yemen and Iraq, and imposed sanctions on the powerful Islamic Revolution Guards Corps. Congress must now decide whether to reimpose some economic sanctions that were lifted as part of the nuclear deal in return for Iran limiting sensitive nuclear activities. If that were to happen, the US would in effect be in violation of the terms. Iran says it has the right to nuclear energy and insists its nuclear programme is for peaceful purposes only. On Wednesday, an Twitter account attributed to Ayatollah Khamenei quoted him as telling students in Tehran that it was a "waste of time for anyone to answer" Mr Trump. |
