How will Tehran react to President Trump's decision to dump the Iran nuclear deal? Stephen Sackur speaks to Seyed Hossein Mousavian, former spokesman for Iran’s nuclear negotiations team. In the face of intense pressure from the US, Israel and Saudi Arabia, the Iranian government has a choice. Does it make a concerted effort to keep the agreement intact along with the other signatories, or does it ramp up its nuclear programme and hang the consequences?
