Report: Trump Admin Pressuring Intel Officials to Find Iran in Violation of Nuclear Deal

HeadlineAug 29, 2017

The Guardian reports U.S. intelligence officials are facing pressure from the Trump administration to find justification to declare Iran in violation of the landmark 2015 nuclear deal. Officials compared it to the situation in the lead-up to the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Former CIA analyst Ned Price said intelligence officials “told me there was a sense of revulsion. There was a sense of déjà vu. There was a sense of ’we’ve seen this movie before.’” Trump has repeatedly threatened to cancel the landmark nuclear deal, calling it the “worst deal ever.”
