US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has threatened to place “the strongest sanctions in history” on Iran if its government does not change course.
Pompeo called for a new nuclear agreement with Iran following President Donald Trump’s withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal.
He said the Trump administration prefers for it to be a treaty that is ratified by Congress.
Pompeo set out a list of 12 “basic requirements” for Iran that he says should be included in the deal.
