Iran’s nuclear enrichment at higher level than before 2015 deal: Rouhani

Iran has gradually scaled back its commitments under the nuclear deal in retaliation to Washington's withdrawal from the pact in 2018 and its reimposition of sanctions that have crippled the country's economy.. The meeting includes the foreign ministers of Canada, Ukraine, Sweden, Afghanistan, the UK and the Netherlands. LONDON: A meeting of countries whose citizens were killed when Iran shot down a Ukrainian passenger plane will meet in London on Thursday to make clear what Tehran needs to do next.. The international coordination and response group for the families of the victims will meet at the High Commission of Canada in London.. The foreign ministers paid their respects to those who died when Iran shot down the Ukrainian airliner last week, ahead of talks between the affected countries to discuss their response.. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has said that his government intends to ask Tehran for compensation for the families of Canadian victims, which Ottawa officials said Wednesday was a top priority.. The plane was shot down hours after Iran launched a ballistic missile attack on two military bases housing US troops in Iraq in retaliation for the killing of Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani in an American airstrike in Baghdad..
