DUBAI (Reuters) - Iran may suspend cooperation with the UN nuclear watchdog if external threats continue, an adviser to Iran’s supreme leader said on Thursday, after U.S. President Donald Trump again warned of military force if Tehran does not agree to a nuclear deal.

Iranian and American diplomats will visit Oman on Saturday to start dialogue on Tehran's nuclear programme, with Trump saying he would have the final word on whether talks are reaching a breakdown, which would put Iran in "great danger".
