Anger is growing in Iran after U.S. President Donald Trump withdrew his country from a landmark nuclear deal with the Islamic republic.
"Abandon the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty!" "Restart uranium enrichment!" "Kick the inspectors out!" In the wake of U.S. President Donald Trump's withdrawal from the Iranian nuclear deal, hard-liners in the Islamic republic have called for any number of actions — including following Trump out of "Barjam," the Persian acronym for the landmark agreement officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). Mindful of the pressure from hard-liners — as well as the consequences of a fierce response from Tehran – Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif sat down with European leaders on May 15 in a desperate attempt to salvage the nuclear deal.
