Washington has been at odds with Europe over Iran since the Trump administration abandoned the 2015 nuclear deal.
By announcing that it will scale back its commitments to the 2015 nuclear deal, abandoned by President Donald Trump a year ago , Iran has recalibrated the geopolitical field with regard to the so-called Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action .
Rouhani also repeated veiled threats that Iran might rein in its efforts to tackle drug smuggling and migration from Asia into Europe if the other signatories to the deal failed to comply. If Iran gets its way, this most recent move will deepen the rift between Europe and the United States. But this eventuality is unlikely, Sanam Vakil, a senior research fellow for the Middle East and North Africa Programme at Chatham House, the London-based policy institute, told Newsweek.
