What Are the Ramifications of US Exiting Iran Nuclear Deal? | Inside Story
Trump has the backing of Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and Israel. But not China, Russia, the UK, France or Germany...who all signed the deal and want it to survive.
So what will be the impact of Donald Trump’s decision? Will it - as feared - stoke more conflict in the Middle East.

Will the US Withdraw from the 2015 Iran Nuclear Deal? | Inside Story
French President Emmanuel Macron is hoping to build on that special bond, during his three-day state visit to Washington DC. And Donald Trump has rolled out the red carpet. But beyond the handshakes, smiles and lavish ceremonies, there are serious policy disagreements including the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, which could threaten to put a strain on the special relationship.
Trump says he wants to withdraw from the agreement, while France and other European nations are urging him to stick with the deal. Iran, for its part, says if the US withdraws, it too will likely abandon the agreement. So, can Macron convince Trump to remain in the Iran deal?

Will Trump End the Iran Nuclear Deal? | Al Jazeera English
Observers believe the tensions between the two countries are driven largely by domestic US politics. Trump has recently replaced members of his administration that advocated the nuclear deal with hardliners who are calling for scrapping it. Iran, in turn, has indicated that it would not feel bound by the deal at all if the US walks away from it.
Al Jazeera's John Hendren reports from Washington.

Why Is Trump against the Iran Nuclear Deal? | Inside Story
He has aggressively warned European allies he would withdraw from the 2015 nuclear agreement altogether if his demands to change it are not met. Trump has publicly branded the deal before and during his presidency as the 'worst ever'.
Iran says his announcement is a 'desperate attempt to undermine a solid multilateral agreement' that is not 'renegotiable'. In the middle of all of this are European leaders who have essentially said to Trump: either back the deal or come up with a better one. But can this deal be re-negotiated?

Trump Refuses to Certify Iran Nuclear Deal Despite EU Criticism

Inside Story - What Is Next for the Iran Nuclear Deal?
After months of bold talk and threats against Iran, the US president is laying out a new strategy to challenge the leadership in Tehran.
Donald Trump is refusing to certify the major nuclear deal signed with Iran two years ago. The Obama administration and six world powers agreed to lift long-running sanctions in return for Iranian promises to limit development of nuclear weapons. Trump says Iran is not meeting the conditions of the agreement. But he stopped short of completely withdrawing from it. Instead, he is asking Congress to consider new sanctions on Iran. Iran says Trump's allegations are delusional and world leaders have also been quick to condemn the US president.
Is the US risking isolation from its allies?
