Al Jazeera: US calls on European allies to take harsh line against Iran
The US appeal to EU leaders comes as some of Tehran's biggest oil customers appear to be succumbing to the US pressure.
The US secretary of state has called on European allies to take a harsher stance against Iran, which he accused of violating UN resolutions, as some of Tehran's biggest oil customers appear to be succumbing to the US pressure.
Mike Pompeo sent out two tweets on Thursday in which he accused the country of violating UN Security Council resolutions and sending weapons across the Middle East.
He called on European leaders to follow the US in increasing economic pressure on the country.
"We must cut off all funding the regime uses to fund terrorism & proxy wars. There's no telling when Iran may try to foment terrorism, violence & instability in one of our countries next," Pompeo wrote in the tweet.

WNU Editor: What I see so far is only a handful of countries that are willing to buy and transport Iranian oil, and they will do so only for a huge discount. As for President Trump, he believes these sanctions will eventually force Iran to seek a new agreement with the U.S. .... Trump Says Iran Will Seek Deal To Ease Economic 'Pain' From Sanctions (RFE). What's my take .... the current leadership in Iran are not going to seek a new deal, even if there are hundreds of thousands on the streets of Tehran demanding a better life.

"sanctions will eventually force Iran to seek a new agreement with the U.S. " Well, sanctions likely caused Iran to seek a new agreement since the NPT was not being honoured by the other signatories, which included 170 nations. That the US was able to induce Iran to lay that aside is one thing. To unilaterally dishonour an agreement when the ink has scarcely dried is another. The US has proved repeatedly that agreements mean nothing to it. That is faint encouragement indeed to go begging at the tyrant's door.
