Iranian President Hassan Rouhani has questioned the legitimacy of efforts by the US and its European allies to change a nuclear deal with his country.
The US and French leaders announced on Tuesday that they were working on a “new deal” that would expand and extend the terms of the 2015 accord.
But Mr Rouhani said they had no “right” to renegotiate a seven-party agreement.
He also dismissed US President Donald Trump as a “tradesman” not qualified to comment on global treaties.
“You don’t have any background in politics,” he said. “You don’t have any background in law. You don’t have any background on international treaties.”
