If the IAEA, the UN nuclear watchdog, confirms #Iran is in breach of the 2015 deal, then the EU will have to find a new appeasement-style narrative to maintain the accord.

Why not the head of the Atomic Energy Organization? Or the AEO spokesman?

Very telling about Tehran's decisions for the future.

#UPDATE
"Prime Minister Theresa May’s spokesman said Iran’s announcement was 'extremely concerning.'"
