President Trump: 'I Have Made A Decision On The Iran Nuclear Deal'



New York Times: Trump Says He’s Made a Decision on Iran Nuclear Deal

President Trump said on Wednesday that he had made a decision on what to do about the nuclear agreement his predecessor negotiated with Iran, but declined to tell reporters what it was.

“I have decided,” he said, repeating the phrase three times. Pressed by reporters, he added: “I’ll let you know. I’ll let you know.”

Mr. Trump’s comments, made as he met with President Mahmoud Abbas of the Palestinian Authority, came the day after he told the United Nations General Assembly that the deal was “an embarrassment for the United States.”

Under United States law, Mr. Trump has until Oct. 15 to certify whether Iran is complying with the agreement, which required it to dismantle much of its nuclear program in exchange for the lifting of international sanctions. Mr. Trump has already certified Iran’s compliance twice, and Secretary of State Rex W. Tillerson acknowledged this week that Iran remains in “technical compliance.”
