Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif says Iran will have its “own options” in response to any violations of the 2015 nuclear deal, adding that the Islamic Republic will “surprise” US President-elect Donald Trump if he scraps the accord, Press TV reports.
Zarif made the remarks in the Malaysian capital, Kuala Lumpur, on Thursday while speaking with reporters on the sidelines of a special meeting of foreign ministers of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).
Asked about Trump’s campaign pledge to quash the nuclear deal, Zarif said, “Whatever he does to the nuclear deal, we’re not worried about it, because we have our own options.”
