Iran has warned it may withdraw from a US-brokered peace deal aimed at ending the Middle East war, citing continued American violations and military actions. State TV reported on Saturday that Tehran’s UN ambassador stated in New York on Friday that if the United States continues to violate its obligations under the Islamabad Understanding, Iran will no longer consider itself bound by its commitments.
The Iran-US deal was preceded by an April ceasefire, but the two sides have exchanged significant fire in recent days over the Strait of Hormuz. Following these exchanges, US President Donald Trump declared the ceasefire over, though he noted talks with Iran would continue. Iranian UN representative Amir Saeid Iravani further stated that Washington had violated its obligations by launching and continuing large-scale military attacks against Iran’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. Iran affirmed its commitment to the Memorandum of Understanding, provided the United States fully complies with its own obligations.
