BAGHDAD (Reuters)
- US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said Monday that Washington would retaliate against Iran from Tuesday after it suspended it under a nuclear deal between Tehran and Damascus that Trump had canceled.

He said Pompeo: " The White House issued a statement on Monday stating in detail re - imposition of US sanctions against Iran, which President Donald Trump has issued an order to impose this week. Escalation of pressure on Tehran aims to keep Iranian activities malicious. The president was very clear that we want That the voice of the Iranian people be strong in the choice of leadership. "

"The Iranian people are dissatisfied with their leadership, not with the Americans," Pompeo said, referring to the sporadic protests in recent Iranian cities. "They are dismayed by their leadership's failure to honor the economic pledges promised to them."

The US announcement means that as of 4:00 pm on Tuesday, the government of Iran will not be able to buy US banknotes, and a wide range of its industries, including textiles and carpets, will be subject to sanctions as well as a ban on its oil imports and sanctions. Will be brought down to foreign companies that will deal with them.

Washington has vowed to reuse its "maximum pressure" by restricting the activity of most sectors of its economy from early August to withdraw sanctions on Iran's energy sector from November 4.
