In October 2017, the US President, Donald trump has refused to confirm that Tehran adheres to the agreement on the Iranian nuclear program, and gave Congress 60 days to a decision on the resumption of sanctions.

Proof of execution of the agreement by the President of the United States is not part of the agreement on Iran and is based only on domestic U.S. law requiring the President to regularly report to Congress on the implementation of the nuclear deal, said the Agency dpa.

Trump and the contract

At the same time, according to the head of the US state Department Rex Tillerson, trump did not recommend to Congress to renew the sanctions, because in fact didn’t want to endanger the agreement on the nuclear program. Instead, trump, according to Tillerson, chooses other methods of pressure on Iran.

At the same time, trump has repeatedly criticized the agreement on the Iranian nuclear program, calling it “one of the worst and most unilateral transactions made by anyone ever the United States.” He believes that, under the deal, the international community is only allowed “weak inspection” the actions of Iran. “What is the meaning of the contract, which at best is just delaying Iran’s acquisition of nuclear forces, and besides – only for a short time?” – said the American President in October.

Iran and the six international mediators – the U.S., Russia, China, Germany, France and Britain – reached an agreement on the nuclear program of the Islamic Republic in July 2015. Joint comprehensive plan of action (FDP) provides for the implementation by Tehran of a number of steps to limit its nuclear program in exchange for lifting international sanctions and unilateral restrictive measures imposed by the US and the EU.
