President Trump announces withdrawal from JCPOA

President Donald Trump announces that the United States will withdraw from the JCPOA and reimpose nuclear sanctions on Iran. Trump argues that the deal is flawed because it sunsets after 15 years and fails to address Iran's ballistic missile program and regional activities. The withdrawal reverses the Obama administration's signature foreign policy achievement. The decision is controversial: allies and nuclear experts warn that abandoning the deal will collapse the constraints on Iran's nuclear program and reignite international tensions. Trump's administration immediately begins its ''maximum pressure'' campaign, with plans to reinstate all U.S. nuclear-related sanctions and pursue secondary sanctions against countries that trade with Iran.
