Trump pulls US out of Iran nuclear deal

US President Donald Trump announced on Tuesday the withdrawal of the United States from the Iran nuclear deal, saying he will reinstate economic sanctions on the Islamic Republic.

“The deal lifted crippling economic sanctions on Iran, in exchange for very weak limits on the regime’s nuclear activities,” Trump said.

Trump said that the deal “should have never been made. It didn’t bring peace, and it never will.”
