The EU also played an important role in brokering the deal and deemed it as one of the bloc's outstanding diplomatic achievements.

TRUMP'S DECISION

Trump announced on Friday that he had decided to decertify Iran's compliance with the landmark deal.

"I am announcing today that we cannot and will not make this certification," Trump said at the White House as he unveiled a new Iran strategy of his administration.

Despite his criticism of Iran and the Iran nuclear deal, Trump on Friday stopped short of abandoning the nuclear deal.

Instead, he said he was directing his administration to work with Congress and U.S. allies to address "the deal's many serious flaws," including "insufficient enforcement and near-total silence on Iran's missile programs."

In case the efforts fail, Trump warned that "then the (Iran nuclear) agreement will be terminated."

The decertification would not pull the United States out of the Iran nuclear deal at the moment, but it would open a 60-day window in which U.S. Congress could reimpose nuclear-related sanctions on Iran, a step which would mean the violation of the deal on the U.S. side.
