(Worthy News) – Iran’s foreign minister said Thursday his country wasn’t worried and has options if US President-elect Donald Trump decides to ditch a nuclear agreement reached between Tehran and six world powers in 2015.
Despite “grievances” that Iran has over the pact made with the current US government, Mohammad Javad Zarif said it still believes it should be honored.
“Whatever he does to the nuclear deal, we are not worried because we have our own options. But we believe it’s in the interest of everybody to stick to the deal. Most importantly it’s an international agreement. It’s not a bilateral agreement between Iran and the United States,” he told reporters on the sidelines of a meeting in Kuala Lumpur. [ Source ]
