TEHRAN, Sept. 17 (Xinhua) -- Iranian senior officials on Sunday warned against the U.S. "breach" of nuclear deal reached in 2015 and called for Washington's adherence to its pertaining commitments.
Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Sunday warned against any "wrong" move by the United States which might violate the deal.
"They (the U.S. administration) have shown wickedness and malicious behavior with regard to the JCPOA (nuclear deal)," said Khamenei.
During the negotiations with the world powers in 2013-2015, "the country's officials reached the conclusion that they should negotiate and ignore some of their rights so that sanctions would be removed," Khamenei said.
"However, today Colby Rasmus Jersey , we see that despite all agreements and promises and many discussions during the negotiations, the United States treats these negotiations and their outcome in a totally oppressive and bullying manner," he was quoted as saying by Press TV.

"Today Brad Boxberger Jersey , there is a consensus in the world that the JCPOA (or Iran's nuclear deal) benefits security, stability and development in the region and the world," he was quoted as saying by Press TV.
"The opponents of the JCPOA are restricted to two or three countries, including some in the United States, who feel cheated. They believe that a feast has been set out but that they are deprived of going to the table," Rouhani said before leaving Tehran for New York on Sunday to attend the upcoming UN General Assembly meeting.
He said that Iran has been committed to its obligations and this has been confirmed repeatedly by the International Atomic Energy Agency Alex Cobb Jersey , the UN nuclear watchdog.
On Saturday, Rouhani urged the EU to press the United States to abide by its commitments to the nuclear deal reached in 2015, Tehran Times daily reported.

"Iran also expects the EU to send this strong message to the U.S. (administration) Tampa Bay Rays Hats ," Rouhani said during a meeting with the visiting president of the Chamber of Representatives of Belgium, Siegfried Baracke.
