Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei dismisses US President Joe Biden’s statement that Washington will only remove sanctions once Tehran stops enriching uranium, tweeting: “The post-U.S. era has started.”

“If they want Iran to go back to its #JCPOA commitments, the U.S. must practically end all sanctions. We will verify if it has been done properly. If yes, we will go back to our JCPOA commitments,” he says in a follow-up tweet, reiterating a stance repeated multiple times in recent days.

The post-U.S. era has started.
