Trump Plans to Withdraw U.S. From “Defective” Iran Nuclear Deal

President Donald Trump announced plans to withdraw the U.S. from the “defective” Iran nuclear deal, saying it failed to prevent Tehran’s nuclear ambitions.

Speaking in the Diplomatic Room of the White House, Trump said:

“I am announcing today the United States will withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal,” he said, “The Iran deal is defective at its core.”
Sources tell People’s Pundit Daily (PPD) that the decision will start a 90-day countdown to the restoration of sanctions, though it was unclear which sanctions lifted will be restored. Regardless, immediately after the sanctions are re-imposed, the U.S. effectively would be out of the deal.

“At the heart of the Iran deal was a giant fiction, that a murderous regime desired only a peaceful, nuclear energy program,” Trump said Tuesday. “Today, we have definitive proof that this Iranian promise was a lie.”

Once sanctions are re-imposed, the U.S. effectively would be out of the deal.
