BBC Interview: Trump’s Iran Policy
Full Interview (begins at 17:45)
“California fires, veterans in Puerto Rico, Johnny Clegg’s last tour,” PRI’s the World, October 12, 2017.
Donald Trump calls it “The worst deal ever”. The question is why is he so hell-bent on decertifying a 2015 Iran nuclear agreement when even his own cabinet seems to support it? The move consistent with the US president’s bid to unwind any and all the policies of his predecessor and on the day when Washington’s announced it’s pulling out of Unesco for being too anti-Israel, how far will he go? Few expect the US to walk away from the deal but Trump could stiffen sanctions.

“Trumps takes on Tehran: What future for Iran nuclear deal?” France 24, October 12, 2017.
“It’s clear that decades of estrangement have led to a fundamental misunderstanding of Iran in Washington. Notwithstanding the Obama administration’s nuclear negotiations, every U.S. administration since the 1979 Iranian revolution has failed in its declared objective to contain Iran. If Trump wishes to free future generations of anxiety over U.S.-Iran tensions, he should pay careful attention to five points in formulating his Iran policy.”
