Trump Withdraws US from Iran Nuclear Deal (JCPOA) — Reimposes Sanctions (2018-05-08)
Trump announces the US will withdraw from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), the 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and world powers, calling it the 'worst deal ever.' He reimposes all sanctions lifted under the deal, including secondary sanctions on countries doing business with Iran. The withdrawal isolates the US from European allies who remain in the deal. Iran gradually breaches the deal's limits, restarting enrichment. The decision is widely criticized as undermining non-proliferation and empowering Iranian hardliners.
