Iran announced Sunday it will raise its level of uranium enrichment, breaking another limit of its unraveling 2015 nuclear deal with world powers and further heightening tensions with the U.S.

Officials also said the next step impacting Iran's compliance with the deal would be taken in 60 days. They did not elaborate.

Sunday's announcement about uranium enrichment came a year after President Donald Trump unilaterally withdrew from the deal. Iran has repeatedly warned Europe in recent weeks that it would begin walking away from an accord neutered by a maximalist American campaign of sanctions. Iran has ruled out re-negotiating the 2015 deal in any new diplomatic efforts. Iran's deputy foreign minister said Sunday that the U.S. can join any renewed talks, but must lift sanctions on Iran first.

In Sunday's news conference, Iranian officials said the new level of uranium enrichment would be reached later in the day, but did not provide a percentage. The United Nations' nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency, said it was aware of Iran's comments and "inspectors in Iran will report to our headquarters as soon as they verify the announced development."

The deputy foreign minister also signalled Iran's intention to take further steps impacting compliance with the deal.

Sad how MMEDIA doesn't ask to Iran why raise it..They already have Nuke plants for electricity with nuke fuel at present or past levels.....The ONLY practical reason to keep enriching to a higher purity is for Nuclear Weapons....But but but that would mean POTUS was right

What deal CP24 the deal is dead has been for quite some time....The strong indicators Iran never ever complied with the terms of the deal....

YU can thanks Trump for this!!!👎☹️🧐⚖️⚖️🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

Iran to raise uranium enrichment beyond nuclear deal limitsIran says it will increase its uranium enrichment to an unspecified level beyond the terms of its 2015 nuclear deal with world powers, breaking another limit set under the accord and furthering heightening tensions between Tehran and the U.S. If true this won’t end well for Iran It seems Trump may have started a war with his way of thinking by pulling out of the deal and putting on sanctions on Iran. Israel said they would never let Iran get a nuclear war head. It Israel does strike , Iran will strike back which in turn U.S will get involved. The deal ceased to be valid the day Trump pulled out. I do not see what the big fuss is. You cannot expect them to continue to abide by the terms of a deal that is no longer in effect. Blame this on Trump.
