Rouhani says Iran will remain in nuclear deal without U.S.

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-iran-nuclear-rouhani/rouhani-says-iran-will-remain-in-nuclear-deal-idUSKBN1I92T7

Reuters) - President Hassan Rouhani said on Tuesday that Iran would remain committed to a multinational nuclear deal despite U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to withdraw from the 2015 agreement designed to deny Tehran the ability to build nuclear weapons.

"If we achieve the deal's goals in cooperation with other members of the deal, it will remain in place... By exiting the deal, America has officially undermined its commitment to an international treaty," Rouhani said in a televised speech.

Not the day 45 was elected - but today - today is the day that America became a small insignificant pimple on the ass of the globe country.
