Iranian foreign minister has said that the country would be able to resume its nuclear activities if the West withdraws from the nuclear deal agreement which is to be finalized in June.

According to Fox News, Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said that Iran had the power to take action and will resume its nuclear program if the West refused to honour the agreement.

Zarif said that all parties can stop their actions if the other party violated the agreement.

He said the framework nuclear deal announced by Iran and six world powers on Thursday in Switzerland was not binding until a final agreement is worked out by a June 30 deadline.
