Ayatollah Ali Khamenei suggested Washington does not want his regime's 'religious democracy' to succeed.
The White House then began re-imposing crippling sanctions on Iran, undermining its economy and contributing to widespread anti-government unrest. In response, Iran gradually announced it would no longer comply with certain JCPOA restrictions it had been adhering to.
After Soleimani was killed, the regime announced it would no longer abide by any restrictions in the JCPOA, raising fears that Tehran could be within a year of being able to build nuclear weapons. On Monday, Khamenei said the demand shows the U.S. wants the country to"drop its new message for the world, that is combining popular opinion with Islamic thought and religious principles in the formation and administration of society."
Earlier this month, France, the U.K. and Germany—known collectively as the E3—accused Iran of breaking the JCPOA and triggered the deal's dispute mechanism that could result in the reimposition of United Nations sanctions.
