Iran will not be burdened with preserving nuclear deal - Iran's U.N. envoy

UNITED NATIONS - Iran's United Nations envoy described his country's nuclear deal with world powers as being in "critical condition" on Wednesday and warned "Iran alone cannot, shall not and will not take all of the burdens anymore to preserve" the 2015 agreement.
