Iran will never renegotiate the 2015 nuclear deal despite the US pressures, Iran's Foreign Ministry said on Saturday.
The US President Donald Trump once again had to extend waivers that are mandatory under the deal reached between Iran and world powers, officially called the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), the foreign ministry said in a statement. The stance of Iran and international support for the agreement has blocked attempts by Trump and Israel to terminate this deal or make changes to it, said the statement.
