Iran said today that it wouldn’t give European powers any more time to save the nuclear deal, by helping Tehran evade US sanctions after July 8.
The representative for Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization said that Tehran was ready to enrich uranium beyond limits set under the 2015 deal, which would violate the deal.

The US has labelled Iran's plan to exceed the internationally agreed limit on enriched uranium stockpiles "nuclear blackmail”.
White House National Security Council spokesperson Garrett Marquis said: "President [Donald] Trump has made it clear that he will never allow Iran to develop nuclear weapons. The regime's nuclear blackmail must be met with increased international pressure."

The United States said Tuesday that Iran is violating the 2015 nuclear deal through its work with advanced centrifuges and insisted that it is still prepared to hold talks with Iranian leaders.
In a statement to the meeting of the United Nations nuclear watchdog’s 35-nation Board of Governors, the US said that Iran’s accelerated enrichment of uranium would not lead the US to dial back its “maximum pressure” approach towards Iran.

Iran announced on Monday that by the end of June it would exceed the enriched uranium stockpile limits that it agreed to under the 2015 nuclear deal between it and six world powers, which would violate the deal.
The only question is how will the signatories to the deal respond?

London, 08 June - For a second day running, Donald Trump has called for talks between the US and Iran but has stressed that under no circumstances will Iran be allowed to develop nuclear weapons.
After a meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron in Caen, France, on Thursday, Trump said: "I understand [Iran] wants to talk, and we want to talk. That's fine. We'll talk. But the one thing that [Iran] can't have is … nuclear weapons. And I think the president of France would agree with that very strongly."
