Iran security chief labels Trump a liar

EU News – With the Iran nuclear deal on increasingly shaky ground, euronews’ correspondent in Tehran, Javad Montazeri, asked the Secretary of the Supreme Council for National Security, Admiral Ali Shamkhani, for his view on the US, Europe and how relations with Iran are progressing.

“Unfortunately, Trump is a liar. The US imposes sanctions on Iran, supports the growth of terrorism in Iraq and Syria, and bombards Yemen.

“When Trump calls Iran “The Terrorist Nation”, or distorts the 2,500 years of history the “Persian Gulf” has, by calling it the “Arabian Gulf”, people realise that they are being targeted,” he told euronews.

We asked about the role of Europe since the nuclear deal was struck.

“It has always been our plan to develop our ties and relations with Europe within our values and beliefs. However, the truth is that Europe has not done the same since the nuclear deal was signed.

“It has mainly paid lip service, with a few exceptions. It is now stating that it is against the elimination of the nuclear deal by the US,” Admiral Shamkhani added.
