US President Donald Trump finally exited the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran on Tuesday, pledging at a special briefing at the White House that he will immediately impose the “highest level of economic sanctions” to deter the Tehran regime’s pursuit of nuclear weapons.
Trump declared, “We will not allow a regime that chants ‘Death to America’ to gain access to the most dangerous weapons on the Earth.”
Under a congressional act passed in September 2015, the US president is required to certify Iranian compliance with the JCPOA — the technical name for the nuclear deal — every 90 days. Trump had certified Iranian compliance three times during his presidency, despite slamming the JCPOA — the signature diplomatic achievement of the previous Obama Administration — as “the worst deal ever.”
Trump was no less forgiving of his predecessor on Tuesday, stating that the “disastrous deal gave this regime — a regime of great terror — many billions of dollars, some of it in actual cash.
