"

The era of another tyrant is coming to an end and today is the last day of his dreadful reign

," said Hassan Rouhani in the Council of Ministers. "

Throughout his four years [in the White House, Donald Trump] has borne no other fruits than those of injustice and corruption and [he] has only brought problems to his own people and to the rest of the world,

”added the Iranian president in this report. televised address.

Tehran and Washington severed diplomatic relations in 1980. In 2018, Trump unilaterally pulled the United States out of the international Iran nuclear deal reached in Vienna in 2015, at the same time reinstating the US sanctions that the pact had lifted in exchange of a drastic limitation of the controversial atomic program of the Islamic Republic.

The return of sanctions has plunged Iran into a violent recession and, in response to the departure of the United States from the Vienna agreement, Tehran has since 2019 freed itself from most of its key commitments made in Vienna.

During a hearing for his confirmation by the Senate, Antony Blinken, chosen by Joe Biden to be his foreign secretary, said on Tuesday that Donald Trump's policies had made Iran "

more dangerous

".

Antony Blinken confirmed the President-elect's desire to bring the United States back quickly to the fold of the Vienna Accord, but he conditioned this on Iran's prior return to strict compliance with its commitments, while Tehran calls above all for the lifting of American sanctions and for Washington to respect all of its obligations.
