My take on the statement released by the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad:

#Iran's regime supports "violent extremist groups" who "would undermine Iraqi sovereignty and democracy."

This is a major wake up call for Tehran & the pro-Iran politicians of #Iraq.

#Iran President: We will further reduce our JCPOA commitments & pump gas into centrifuges at the Fordow site starting Wednesday.

Reminder:
Fordow is a uranium enrichment site deep into the mountains of central Iran with a capacity of 3,000 centrifuges.
Iran considers Fordow a strategic facility and, accordingly, delayed its conversion for more peaceful purposes.

With the intensification of US' maximum pressure campaign, Iran has sought to use the threat of resuming enrichment at Fordow as leverage.
foreignpolicy.com/2019/10/28/max…
In June 2018, a spokesman for the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) stated that “when [Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei] gives the order, we will announce the programs for operating outside of the nuclear deal for reviving Fordow.”
