(Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo visited Britain on Wednesday to pitch a post-Brexit 'special relationship' as Iran said it may stop complying with some parts of the big-power nuclear deal that the United States withdrew from a year ago.
Pompeo arrived in London after an unannounced visit to Iraq where he set out U.S. security concerns amid rising tension with Iran.
The U.S. military said on Tuesday that B-52 bombers would be among the additional forces being sent to the Middle East to counter what President Donald Trump's administration says are "clear indications" of threats from Iran to U.S. forces there.

"The message that we’ve sent to the Iranians, I hope, puts us in a position where we can deter, and the Iranians will think twice about attacking American interests," Pompeo said. U.S. intelligence was "very specific" about "imminent" attacks, he said.
Iran announced on Wednesday it was relaxing curbs on its nuclear program under the 2015 deal with world powers, and threatened to do more – including enriching uranium to a higher level – if other countries did not shield it from U.S. sanctions.
In London, Pompeo was due to meet Prime Minister Theresa May, who has been grappling for three years with a political crisis over Britain's planned exit from the European Union.
Pompeo met Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt and the spiritual leader of the Church of England, Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby, to discuss religious freedom and the persecution of Christians, and was due to meet Hunt again later.
