One year after the United States withdrew from the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, Washington has imposed sanctions on Iran's metal sectors, as tension escalates between the two countries. In Tehran Wednesday, Iranian President Hassan Rouhani says his country will suspend its compliance with certain prohibitions that were imposed as part of that nuclear deal. VOA's diplomatic correspondent Cindy Saine reports from the State Department.
