IRNA � Iranian first vice president on Saturday cautioned people and officials about the US media and political war.

While the US has imposed an economic war upon Iran, the officials should adopt appropriate measures to counter them and in the meantime they should arouse the people's hope because the Americans in cooperation with their allies in the region and the Zionist regime have started a media and political war against Iran, Eshaq Jahangiri added.

The US President Donald Trump announced on May 8 that Washington would pull out of Iran nuclear deal and re-impose nuclear sanctions on the country.

This is while most world powers, including Russia, China, and the European Union have repeatedly stressed that keeping the deal is in the interest of the world peace and security.
