Expert : Trump pulls out of Iran Nuclear Deal
"Trump pulls U.S. out of 'disastrous' Iran nuclear deal, will restore sanctions; President Donald Trump announced Tuesday the U.S. will pull out of the landmark nuclear accord with Iran, dealing a profound blow to U.S. allies and potentially deepening the president's isolation on the world stage."

"The Iran nuclear deal 聽(鈥淛oint Comprehensive Plan of Action鈥�) was a well-crafted compromise under which Iran agreed to never develop nuclear weapons, and also agreed to restrictions on civilian nuclear聽activities. It was a major accomplishment of American, European, Russian, and Chinese diplomacy. The decision of the Trump Administration to withdraw from the agreement casts serious doubt on聽the credibility of American commitments, destabilizes the Middle East, increases the risk of a nuclear arms race in the Middle East鈥攁nd, ironically, makes Iran look the more reasonable party.鈥�
