| Instead, earlier on Friday, US President Donald Trump announced that he is deferring the matter to the US Congress, so that it could amend the agreement and “strengthen its enforcement.” | |

| The US also imposed a fresh set of sanctions against the Islamic Republic, unrelated to its nuclear program. | |
