Trump reimposes sanctions on Iran

US President Donald Trump today reimposed sanctions on Iran, that were lifted under the landmark nuclear accord of 2015. Iran has accused America of reneging on the nuclear agreement, signed by the Obama administration, and evoking economic unrest in the country. America's European allies have said that they “deeply regret” this step. However, Trump has said that he is ready to forge a new and "more comprehensive" deal with the Islamic Republic.

अमेरिकी राष्ट्रपति डॉनल्ड ट्रम्प ने आज ईरान पर उन प्रतिबंधों को दोबारा लागू कर दिया, जिन्हें 2015 के ऐतिहासिक परमाणु समझौते के तहत हटा दिया गया था। ईरान ने अमेरिका पर ओबामा प्रशासन द्वारा हस्ताक्षरित परमाणु अनुबंध से मुकरने व उनके देश में आर्थिक अशांति पैदा करने का आरोप लगाया है। अमेरिका के यूरोपीय सहयोगियों ने कहा है कि उन्हें इस कदम का "अत्यंत अफ़सोस" है। हालांकि, ट्रम्प ने कहा है कि वे इस्लामी गणराज्य के साथ एक नया व "अधिक विस्तृत" समझौता बनाने के लिए तैयार हैं।
