Iranian leaders step up talk of retaliation

Tehran — Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Tuesday that the Islamic republic will keep rolling back its commitments under the landmark 2015 nuclear deal.

“We have just started to decrease our commitments and this process will certainly continue,” he said in a speech in Tehran partly aired on state television. Angered that its beleaguered economy is not receiving sanctions relief it believes was promised under the deal, Iran has intensified its sensitive uranium enrichment work.

“If they decrease then we too shall decrease our commitments [in the deal] ... If they fully implement their commitments then we too shall fully implement ours,” he said, quoted by the government website dolat.ir.
