The speaker of Iran's parliament has offered a particularly scathing review of US President Donald Trump's decision to pull the US out of the Iran nuclear deal, saying Trump does not have the "mental capacity" for his job.
Trump announced that he was withdrawing the United States from the landmark deal on Tuesday, sparking an avalanche of criticism from both sides of the political divide in America and also upsetting the international community, including US allies and Russia.
The speaker of Iran's parliament, Ali Larijani, took a particularly dim view of the decision telling the Iranian assembly that: "Trump does not have the mental capacity to deal with issues."
"Trump's abandoning of the nuclear deal was a diplomatic show… Iran has no obligation to honor its commitments under the current situation," Larijani said. "It is obvious that Trump only understands the language of force."
