Iran says it will take steps Sunday to increase enrichment of uranium beyond limits set in the 2015 nuclear deal
President Hassan Rouhani said that starting Sunday, Iran would take steps to enrich uranium to levels beyond the limit set in the 2015 deal to curb Tehran’s nuclear program.
His remarks were a repeat of previous threats by Iranian officials that, if realized, would mark Iran’s second deliberate violation of the multilateral accord.While the Trump administration has increased economic pressure on Iran to deter the country from obtaining nuclear weapons, President Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un agreed to restart nuclear talks. WSJ's Gerald F. Seib explains the differences in these two approaches.
