Iran's President Hassan Rouhani said on Tuesday he would not let U.S. President-elect Donald Trump rip up a global nuclear deal, warning of unspecified repercussions if Washington reneges on the agreement.

Trump had said during campaigns for the White House that he would scrap Iran's pact with world powers - under which Tehran agreed to curb its nuclear program in return for lifted sanctions - describing it as "the worst deal ever negotiated".

"[Trump] wants to do many things, but none of his actions would affect us," Rouhani said in a speech at University of Tehran broadcast live on state television.

"Do you think the he can rip up the JCPOA (Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action nuclear deal)? Do you think we and our nation will let him do that?"

I wanna be a fly in the wall when the Iranian rulers discover Trump has ruined them indefinitely.

Is this like winning in advance?

We can send them some “unspecified repercussions” of our own by not identifying our targets in advance like O does.

“The LGBTQ can stay in the rear lines and cook and clean.”

The coloring books...don’t forget the coloring books. I hear that’s the up and coming thing for the tender hearts who think they’re worthy of the uniform.

You have to know it’s a bad deal for us when they want to keep it.

Guess Rouhani didn’t get the memo - there’s a new Sheriff in town. And he’s no fool.

Sorry Iran, but it never passed the Senate, so technically, there is no deal.

Then what does he care if Trump rips it up or not?

> Our military could take you out under Trump ROE, even with the weakening obozo did in 8 years. The LGBTQ can stay in the rear lines and cook and clean.

More useful in the front line as bullet stopper IMO...: > )

This is NOT A TIME to be in, or traveling near Iran, Iraq, Syria or anyplace where an Iranian force could do a kidnapping. While I do not expect Trump to be as passive as Obama on US Citizens being kidnapped, this is the easy path of pressure for these dictatorships from North Korea to Iran.

With US Military in Iraq and the Iranian militia as well as sympathizers active there as well, I do see danger of staged incidents and also capture. Where Reagan had only the US Embassy hostages in 1980 and a relatively new Iranian theocracy to contend with (”Flat, black & glow in the night), Trump faces entrenched and empowered Iran that is seeing control of the region at hand. Obama has left a real IED for Trump to face!
