German Foreign Minister Sigmar Gabriel said on Monday that he feared US President Donald Trump would quit the Iran nuclear deal next week.
Speaking at a state election campaign event, Gabriel noted that the security situation may get worse if Washington withdraws from the Iranian nuclear deal, adding that it causes concerns.
Gabriel affirmed that Berlin is ready to increase pressure on Tehran using diplomatic means, adding that "we do not want to see this agreement damaged."
Sinking the nuclear deal would mean the US “replacing the rule of law with the law of the strongest", Gabriel said adding that such decision is a great danger for us, because if the US took that course, then the world would change, Spiegel reported.
The P5+1 group comprising the US, Russia, China, Britain and France in addition to Germany had reached the Iranian nuclear deal in 2015. The deal ensured the peaceful nature of Iranian nuclear programme.
