Iran's president blasts Trump over threats to cancel Nuclear deal

On Friday night, US president, Donald Trump held a press conference where he threatened to withdraw from Iran's Nuclear deal if the U.S congress doesn't make corrections and adjustments to the accord. The 10 year Nuclear deal formed by the Obama Administration, ensures that Iran stops its Nuclear program for grants and aids from the U.S government, but Trump says the deal is the most 'one sided deal he's ever seen' and believes Iran is the only beneficiary from the deal. Trump also claimed in his speech that Iran hasn't been complying with their own part of the agreement but IAEA, the UN nuclear watchdog that monitors nuclear programs, says  that Tehran has been complying with its obligations under the deal.

Donald Trump in fiery speech threatens to withdraw from Iran nuclear deal, unless congress and allies fix major flaws that don't favour America

U.S president, Donald Trump on Friday night, said he would stop certifying Iran's Nuclear agreement with the United Nations to Congress, and he would totally cancel the US' participation in the 'one-sided' deal unless Congress amends the deal to fix up major flaws agreed with the Iranian government by Obama's administration.
