AP: Iran president warns of ‘problems’ as Trump decision looms
May 8, 2018
ran’s president on Tuesday warned the country could face “some problems,” just hours before President Donald Trump was to announce whether he is pulling America out of the nuclear deal between Tehran and world powers.
Without directly naming Trump, Hassan Rouhani’s remarks at a petroleum conference in Tehran represented the first official Iranian comment on the U.S. president’s overnight tweet that he’d make an announcement on the deal Tuesday.
“It is possible that we will face some problems for two or three months, but we will pass through this,” Rouhani said.
