Tehran: Iran’s President today said that there was “no limit” to the country’s enrichment of uranium following its decision to abandon its commitments under the 2015 nuclear deal in response to the killing of its top general in a US airstrike. Hassan Rouhani also said that the US sanctions had made Iran even “stronger”. In a speech before the heads of banks, Rouhani said the nuclear programme was in a “better situation” than it was before the nuclear agreement with world powers. President Donald Trump withdrew from the nuclear agreement in May 2018, in part because it did not address Iran’s support for armed groups across the region and its ballistic missile programme.

Germany confirms tariff threat of US

London: Germany’s Defence Minister has confirmed a report that the US was threatening to impose a 25 per cent tariff on European car exports if it continued backing the Iran nuclear deal. “This expression or threat, as you will, does exist,” Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer told a news conference during a visit to London after a report in the Washington Post newspaper. The US daily said that Trump made the threat if Britain, France and Germany did not formally accuse Tehran of flouting the 2015 nuclear deal. China, the United States and Russia were also signatories to the agreement but Trump in 2018 unilaterally pulled the United States out and reimposed tough sanctions on Tehran. AFP
