Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said today that the United States would regret withdrawing from the nuclear deal, and that Iran would respond in "less than a week" if that happened.
"We will not be the first to violate the accord but they should definitely know that they will regret it if they violate it," Rouhani told a conference to mark National Nuclear Technology Day in Tehran.
"We are much more prepared than they think, and they will see that if they violate this accord, within a week, less than a week, they will see the result."
"(But) the foundations of the JCPOA (nuclear deal) have been so strong that during these 15 months of pressure... the structure has remained solid."
"If they withdraw, it would mean that they are not committed to their words."
