Trump Won’t Scrap Nuclear Deal: Iran’s Nuclear Chief

Iran’s nuclear chief says he is not worried about Donald Trump’s inflammatory remarks against Iran, noting that that the president-elect will be tamed by realities of the nuclear deal.

“I think the (new) US president will act on the basis of realities when taking the helm,” Ali Akbar Salehi said on Tuesday, as reported by Tehran Times.

“JCPOA [the nuclear deal between Tehran and world powers] is not an issue between two countries where the other side fails to honour its commitments, and we think there will be no problem,” Salehi said, referring to the US President-elect’s threats to scrap the deal.
