Iran warns of restoring nuclear program

(VOVWORLD) - Iran will resume its nuclear program with a normal speed if it does not benefit from the 2015 nuclear agreement, said Morteza Saffari Natanzi, a member of the Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, on Saturday

Speaking to Mehr news agency, Saffari Natanzi urged European signatories of the nuclear deal, officially called the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action or JCPOA, to guard the agreement from US attempts to undermine it. He said the Islamic Republic will ramp up its uranium enrichment to 20% and will restore its nuclear program to pre-JCPOA level should the deal get thrown away.

Earlier this month, US President Donald Trump declined to certify Iran’s compliance with the nuclear deal signed with world powers.
