Iran will not tolerate US political blow to JCPOA - Rouhani

The Iranian authorities will not tolerate attempts to launch political attacks by the United States on the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) and will give their answer to this. This was announced on July 1 by Iranian President Hassan Rouhani at a meeting of the country's government, which broadcast Iranian TV. If the United States wants to again inflict a political blow on the JCPOA, they should know that Iran will not tolerate this and will demonstrate decisive action in response, the Iranian leader said. It is also known that this statement was made by the President of Iran in view of attempts by the US authorities to extend the arms embargo on Tehran, which should be lifted under the terms of the nuclear deal. Note, as reported by the news agency, earlier US Special Representative for Iran Brian Hook said that the US authorities are considering the possibility of implementing a military scenario in order to prevent Iran from gaining access to nuclear weapons.
