Iran: US Illegal Presence in Syria Must End

• PressTV Published on Sep 7, 2018
  The Leader of Iran’s Islamic Revolution says it is unacceptable that European parties to the 2015 nuclear agreement fail to fulfill their related commitments while Iran holds up its end of the deal. Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei made the comment in a meeting with visiting Russian President Vladimir Putin on the sidelines of a trilateral summit of Iran, Russia and Turkey on Syria. The leader said Iran will make sure its stance on the nuclear deal protects its national interests. Ayatollah Khamenei also called for elimination of the U-S dollar from the trade between Iran and Russia. Putin, in turn, said the US is making a strategic mistake by limiting other countries’ access to its financial system. Putin said this weakens the dollar and undermines trust in the currency. The Russian leader also said Europeans are effectively following the US policy on the nuclear deal despite talking about protecting the agreement.
