The multilateral deal that offers Iran relief from sanctions in return for curbs on its nuclear program was torpedoed by Trump’s decision to withdraw the United States from it in 2018.

A last round of negotiations between Iran and the deal’s remaining parties to revive the 2015 accord concluded in June with no resumption in sight.

The incumbent US administration is no different from the previous one, because what it demands from Iran on the nuclear issue is different in words, but the same thing that Trump demanded, said Khamenei, who was quoted by his official website.

The US has no shame because it withdrew from the treaty (Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action – JCPOA) and now it demands as if it was Tehran that violated the deal, he underlined.
