Opinion – US pullout from Iran deal could mean war: France – Press TV

Here’s a powerful video clip, citing France’s President Macron warning of war if the US pulls out of the Iran deal. Macron has exerted France’s full foreign policy muscle on this issue. Meanwhile, Theresa May and Boris Johnson highlight how the UK is under-weight since the Brexit decision. 

Incidently, Press TV is a 24-hour English and French languages news and documentary network, affiliated with Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting.

Although I do not always agree with Donald Trump, he’s right about the Iran deal and Iran’s wider foreign policy aspirations.

Surely, it’s time to face the truth and do what history will judge to be right?

Thoughts?

This is an outstanding and historical interview. I have been highly suspicious of Donald Trump but was impressed with his answers to the NYT‘s top editors and journalists.

Of course, it’s just the beginning. I was interested in how measured and reasonable Trump’s position on many issues. Most importantly, for both Trump and the NYT, a big line seems to have been drawn on things said in the election. The future is still uncertain but perhaps not quite so bleak?
