damirUSBiH + 327 DD May 9, 2018 Iran’s Supreme Leader called U.S. President Donald Trump’s comments on withdrawing from the 2015 nuclear agreement “silly and superficial”, said he did not trust the European countries that were sticking with the agreement, and cast doubt on the future of the deal. The comments came on Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s official website on Wednesday, where Khamenei reiterated his distaste for the agreement. “I said many times from the first day: don’t trust America,” Khamenei said. And he added, “I don’t trust these three countries,” Britain, France and Germany. All three are parties to the agreement and were trying after Trump’s withdrawal to salvage the deal.

Petar + 76 PP May 9, 2018 Remember there are five other countries involved in this agreement. How will this action impact first at all Germany France and England (Russia, China) Isn't this a betrayal of our commitment to them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pavel + 384 PP May 9, 2018 I urge them to revise the harsh laws of Iranian Regime. When Iran has democratised and stops executing innocent people and starts treating women as equal citizens, well maybe then there will be a part of modern world. Btw. personally I'm supporting Iran deal from before. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
franco + 96 FM May 9, 2018 At least U.S. had some control over the Iranian nuclear program, but now U.S. have nothing. It's more than just "nuclear deal"..With this decision, Boeing will lose job contract for $20bn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pinto + 293 PZ May 9, 2018 Who knows? Maybe Europe and the other countries will manage to somewhat renegotiate and salvage the deal, even without the US being a member. Sanctions by the US alone, only mean so much. In any case, it was a happy day for Netanyahu and Saudi Prince MbS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jpZelabal + 63 jj May 9, 2018 We live in a world where its beneficial to build relationships and alliances. Even Keeping the lines of communication open with countries we consider dangerous. Cutting off those lines of communication and severing relationship with other countries is a bad message because it's not diplomatic way. Especially for your allies.

damirUSBiH + 327 DD May 9, 2018 How can you believe Khamanei? These guys sponsor killing innocent citizens whatever way they can. They are developing nuclear weapons right now, hidden. Time to call the Iranian regimes bluff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jose chalhoub + 388 May 9, 2018 I would like to see how all this will play out for example in a country traditionally stable and ally of the United States and France such as Lebanon, where after the elections this past sunday Hezbollah reached an important victory. Definitely things will get awry in the country especially with saudi arabia trying to keep its influence in the country. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
franco + 96 FM May 9, 2018 Definitely, things are going to be more complicated. Middle East is in front of one of the most challenges in last few decades. Iran and Saudi Arabia are going into a total conflict. They have a few hot points where their interests are in collision... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
William Edwards + 708 May 9, 2018 For those critical of withdrawing from the Iranian deal, please explain if withdrawing is better for Iran, why is Iranian objection to withdrawal so strong? The Iranian intense anger at Trump's move would suggest that he took away something that they really liked. Does that not suggest that it was a bad deal for the US? Does not withdrawal set the stage for Iran agreeing to a deal that still retains some of their "goodies" but provides enough concessions to make it attractive to the US? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
