Iran has "expected and unexpected" reactions prepared if the US pulls out of the landmark nuclear deal between Tehran and six world powers, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said on Saturday, according to Reuters. "Our Atomic Energy Organization is fully prepared... for actions that they expect and actions they do not expect," he said, referencing the possible decision by US President Donald Trump to leave the deal next month. Trump has long called the accord agreed under Barack Obama's administration the "worst deal ever negotiated" and refused to certify Iran's compliance with the deal in October, despite the International Atomic Energy Agency confirming that Tehran was in compliance.
