TEHRAN: Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif on Monday dismissed new allegations by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Tehran has a secret nuclear weapons programme.
In a tweet, Zarif said that US President Donald Trump "is jumping on a rehash of old allegations already dealt with by the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) to ´nix´ the (2015 nuclear) deal."
"How convenient. Coordinated timing of alleged intelligence revelations by the boy who cries wolf just days before May 12," he said referring to Netanyahu and Trump´s deadline to decide whether or not to walk away from the nuclear agreement with Iran.
