Iran to Curtail Compliance With Nuclear Deal as Mideast Tensions Heighten

VOA News

   Iranian President Hassan Rouhani says his country will continue to
   curtail its compliance with a nuclear deal unless other global powers
   that entered the agreement show "positive signals."

   Iran began reducing its commitment to the pact in May after the United
   States unilaterally withdrew from the accord last year and imposed more
   sanctions on the Islamic Republic.

   Speaking at a conference of Asian leaders in Tajikistan, Rouhani warned
   Tehran would "inevitably have to take more measures" if it doesn't get
   what it considers appropriate responses. "Obviously, Iran cannot stick
   to this agreement unilaterally," he declared.

   Rouhani did not elaborate on what Iran would consider positive signs.
