Secretary of State Mike Pompeo laid out a list of demands on Iran in a speech threatening to “crush” the country on Monday. His bellicose words come weeks after President Donald Trump pulled the United States out of the Iran nuclear deal and are nothing short of an ultimatum demanding Iran’s total surrender to U.S. wishes.

As the May 12th deadline for US President Donald Trump’s Iran decision draws near, these days, all eyes are set on this question that what the Europe can do to  save this landmark nuclear deal, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
