Iran’s Revolutionary Guards say Europe can’t save nuclear deal after US move

European countries are powerless to salvage the nuclear deal with Iran after the United States’ decision to pull out, the deputy head of the elite Iranian Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) said on Thursday. “Europe cannot act independently over the nuclear deal,” the semi-official Fars news agency quoted Brigadier General Hossein Salami as saying. Britain, France and Germany earlier said they remained committed to the deal. “Iran’s enemies are not seeking military confrontation. They want to pressure our country by economic isolation… Resistance is the only way to confront these enemies, not diplomacy,” Salami added.
