Trump doesn’t understand Iran's culture of resistance: Sherman
Tehran (Basirat) :A former US under secretary of state for political affairs has taken President Donald Trump to task for his rash policies and uncalculated measures towards Iran after taking Washington out of a nuclear deal with Tehran, saying Trump does not understand Iran's culture of resistance.
In an interview with Yahoo News published on Sunday, Wendy Sherman slammed
Trump's use of threats to push his adversaries into submission, emphasizing that
Iranians are not a nation to surrender to any threats.
Sherman was a key member of the US nuclear negotiating team under former
secretary of state, John Kerry, who pulled off the Iran nuclear deal, officially
known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), to fruition in 2015.
Trump is a stern critic of the nuclear accord, agreed between Iran and the five
permanent members of the United Nations Security Council – the United States,
France, Britain, Russia and China – plus Germany. Under the JCPOA, Iran
undertook to put limits on its nuclear program in exchange for the removal of
nuclear-related sanctions imposed against Tehran.
The US president announced on May 8 that Washington was walking away from the
nuclear agreement and that he planned to reinstate US nuclear sanctions on Iran
and impose "the highest level" of economic bans on the Islamic Republic
