War of words intensifies but former US admiral doesn't expect the situation to escalate despite 'the media hype'.

US President Donald Trump has decided to end exemptions from sanctions for countries still buying oil from Iran.

US President Donald Trump has designated Iran's elite Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a foreign terrorist organisation.

While the US has had a strategy to contain and isolate Iran, Iran continues to seek and build friendships with its regional neighbors. There are many indications that the US will not tolerate this for much longer.

The Trump administration is to reinstate all US sanctions on Iran removed under the 2015 nuclear deal.

Air France and British Airways announced Thursday that they will halt flights to Tehran next month, citing low profitability as the US reimposes sanctions on Iran.
 

"If we don't have a deterrent... it gives a green light for others to enter this country."

Even before the United States reimposed a raft of sanctions on Iran Tuesday, the mere threat of them had begun to hit home for people in the capital Tehran.

US President Donald Trump has warned that any country trading with Iran will “not be doing business with the United States.” The threat comes as sanctions against the country came into effect at midnight.

THE Middle Eastern nation slammed “American bullying” as the US President signed an order ramping up tensions once more.

An Iranian special forces commander has warned President Donald Trump if the US attacks Iran it "will destroy all that you possess".

President uses exceptionally strong language in all-capitalized tweet, warning Rouhani not to threaten U.S.

Rouhani repeated his warning that Iran could shut down the strategic Strait of Hormuz, a vital shipping lane for international oil supplies. 

Iran says it has begun work on increasing its uranium enrichment capacity, in case its 2015 nuclear agreement with world powers collapses.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned Germany's Angela Merkel Monday that Iranian meddling in the Middle East could touch off massive new refugee flows to Europe, as they clashed about the future of the nuclear deal with Tehran.

Tehran will struggle to “keep its economy alive” if it does not comply with a list of 12 US demands, including Iranian withdrawal from Syria, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo vowed on Monday.

On the heels of Trump’s withdrawal from the Iran deal, France’s economy minister has urged Europe to stop acting like “US vassals” and continue trading with Tehran in defiance of what “the global economic policeman” has in store.

IRAN says Donald Trump “can’t do a damn thing” after he dumped the nuclear deal as MPs burnt the US flag, shouting, “death to America!”

He added, “I believe that the decision to put the JCPOA at risk without any Iranian violation of the deal is a serious mistake.”

President Donald Trump wasn't always so dead against the Iran deal and it's not a big issue for voters, so why is he pulling out now?
