He stressed that the full implementation of the nuclear deal by Iran is and remains essential.
Perry echoed U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's accusation that Iran was responsible for launching the recent drone attacks on two Aramco oil facilities in the east of Saudi Arabia, which caused major damages and halved Saudi oil output.
Iran's Foreign Ministry on Monday rejected the U.S. claims that Iran was behind the drone attacks, saying "such claims are baseless and are condemned."
The United Nations' atomic watchdog confirmed earlier last week that advanced centrifuges had been installed at an Iranian nuclear plant in breach of limitations set by the 2017 nuclear deal with major powers.
In reaction to the unilateral withdrawal by the U.S. from the JCPOA and its sanctions on Tehran, and in response to Europe's "inactivity" to save Iran's interests under the deal, Iran decided in May this year to scale back its obligations under the JCPOA to build stockpiles of nuclear fuel and enrich low-grade uranium to a higher level of purity.
It also decided to start up advanced centrifuges to boost the country's stockpile of enriched uranium.
