Tehran may further reduce its compliance with the 2015 nuclear deal in two weeks, unless European governments move to save the agreement by shielding the Iranian economy from US sanctions, a senior official said on Sunday. 
"If the Europeans don't take any measure within the 60-day deadline, we will take new steps," ISNA quoted Kamal Kharrazi, the head of Iran's Strategic Council on Foreign Relations, as saying. 
Kharrazi was speaking after meeting Britain's Middle East Minister Andrew Murrison, who visited Tehran for "frank and constructive" talks and to call for urgent de-escalation in the region, according to the Foreign Office.
