Putin Criticizes Donald Trump for Leaving Iran Nuclear Deal
Source: Newsweek
Russian President Vladimir Putin criticized President Donald Trump's decision to withdraw the United States from the Iran Nuclear deal in a speech Sunday.
Putin said the United States withdrawal could destabilize the region in the middle east according to the Associated Press and added Russia will continue to honor the deal.
Trump announced the U.S. would leave what he called the "horrible" Iran nuclear accord in May. The agreement, put into place in 2015 under President Barack Obama, lifted international economic sanctions against Iran in exchange for the country to limit its nuclear program. Trump called the deal "defective at its core."
Despite this, Putin also said Sunday hes ready to meet with Trump, as soon as the U.S. side is ready.

dancing on a string and his statement is a classic misdirection play. Trump would not have pulled out
of the Iran deal if Putin had told him not to.

(24,128 posts)Or is this the excuse for a big meeting with Trump? Putin is so obsessed with the U.S.. Trump wants Russia back to make the G8; Putin wants a meeting.
Am I paranoid, or is there a pattern here?
