TEHRAN: Iran's President Hassan Rouhani will respond on state television, shortly after US counterpart Donald Trump's expected withdrawal from the nuclear deal, an Iranian official said. "If Trump speaks, President Rouhani will respond tonight" (Wednesday) on television, said the official on condition of anonymity. The Iran announcement came as Trump began telling members of the US Congress he had decided to pull the United States out of the landmark nuclear deal signed with world powers in 2015.
