Khamenei: Iranian regime to continue to cut nuclear deal commitments

Iranian regime’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said on Tuesday (July 16) Iranian regime would continue to reduce its commitments under its nuclear deal, accusing European partners of not fulfilling their obligations.

“According to our foreign minister, Europe made 11 commitments, none of which they abided by. We abided by our commitments and even beyond them. Now that we’ve begun to reduce our commitments, they oppose it. How insolent! You didn’t abide by your commitments!” Khamenei said, according to his website.

Khamenei added that Iran would respond to Britain’s “piracy” over the seizure of an Iranian oil tanker in Gibraltar.

Iranian regime has called on Britain to immediately release the oil tanker, which was seized by British Royal Marines on suspicion it was breaking European sanctions by taking oil to Syria.

“Evil Britain commits piracy and steals our ship and gives it a legal appearance. Iran and those who believe in our system will not leave such evil deeds unanswered,” Khamenei said in remarks broadcast on television.
