BEIRUT (Reuters) - Iranian foreign minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said on Thursday that the United States should meet its own obligations agreed in a landmark nuclear deal in 2015 rather than raising accusations against the Islamic Republic.

Zarif said in a tweet that the United States should "fulfil its own commitments," in response to a comment from U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.
