Leaders from Germany, France, the UK and others quickly condemned President Donald Trump's decision to withdraw the US from the Iran nuclear deal on Tuesday.
Finalized in 2015, the deal, which placed limits on Iran's nuclear program in exchange for relief from economic sanctions, was presented as a major foreign policy win.
The US, UK, France, Russia, China, Germany and Iran were all parties to the agreement, which was also endorsed by the UN Security Council.
Here's what world leaders are saying about Trump's decision to withdraw from the deal:
German Chancellor Angela Merkel, French President Emmanuel Macron, and British Prime Minister Theresa May
In a joint statement, they expressed "regret and concern" about Trump's decision and reiterated their commitment to the deal.
"This agreement remains important for our shared security," the statement said.

I really hate to say it, but its true.
Ditch that piece of crap Brexit vote.
