Hassan Rouhani, the president of Iran, said Tuesday that Tehran could abandon the 2015 nuclear deal "within hours" if new sanctions from the U.S. are imposed.
Rouhani claimed that the new sanctions would be a breach of the agreement made between Iran and other countries, including the U.S. and China.
Iran's president claimed that his country is capable of restarting its nuclear program within hours -- and quickly bring it to even more advanced levels than in 2015, when Iran signed the nuclear deal with world powers.
"If America wants to go back to the experience (of imposing sanctions), Iran would certainly return in a short time -- not a week or a month but within hours -- to conditions more advanced than before the start of negotiations," Rouhani told a session of parliament broadcast live on state television.
They won't abandon the nuclear deal. If they wait just 10 or so more years theyll have unrestricted access again and also will be allowed to purchase modern military gear off world markets. Rouhani is just saying this to appeal to hardliners who never wanted the deal to begin with.

Iran is in a tough spot, much like north Korea. Lose the nuclear program and get shit on.
Wyatt Jones
I'm 99.99% sure they won't. I'm iranian I know the politics there. All the sabre rattling is about appealing to half the country who are very sovereignty focused. They never publicise their actual plans and agendas

That's why they are going start building their nukes very very soon.
North Korea shows that if you got nukes, US won't fuck with you.

Also sabre rattling. It was a strategy by the khomeinists to try to unite the Muslim world behind them, by creating an external enemy that is the USA and Israel. But it didn't work because they understated just how much distain there is for Shiites and Persians among Arabs. The mullahs also don't want a western proxy in the middle east giving them an excuse to intervene, the mullahs want to take regional hegemony for Iran. All this stuff about wiping Israel off the map is just bluster, the mullahs are more calculating than that.

Israel won't allow Iran to have nukes

>Another Trump failure When will we get sick of him failing constantly and just stand up and take back our country? It's sad that Obama was 20x the president Trump is. Literally Trump is the worst president in history. Losing to Russia, losing to NK, losing to Iran, losing to EU, losing to alt left. Trump is a total failure. he is the the definition of failure.

Doubt it. Iran knows if they build them they'll just escalate things and Saudi and probably turks and egypt will end up building them too.
Josiah Howard
>Iran knows if they build them they'll just escalate thing
They are already escalating it. It's now or never. You caused this by voting for Trump who vehemently is anti-Iran.
