In a post on social media, he said the US blockade of Iranian ports would continue until an agreement had been certified and signed. Key sticking points remain, including control of the Strait of Hormuz and Iran's nuclear programme.
Also in the programme: Turkish riot police have stormed the headquarters of the main opposition party in Ankara in a row over a court's decision to oust the party's leader; the Gaza Flotilla activist who alleges she was sexually assaulted by Israeli forces when they intercepted her boat; and what value to put on a world record if athletics doping is allowed.
