Vermont independent Sen. Bernie Sanders says he’ll support Iran nuclear deal
MONTPELIER, Vermont — Vermont U.S. Senator and presidential candidate Bernie Sanders says he’ll support the deal negotiated by the United States and other nations with Iran to limit its nuclear program.
Sanders issued a statement after a telephone conversation on Friday with President Barack Obama. Sanders said in the statement that the president addressed some of his concerns, but he didn’t say what they were.
Sanders, an independent who is seeking the Democratic presidential nomination, says the agreement is not everything he could have hoped for but it beats the alternative — a war with Iran that could go on for years.
He says sanctions that the agreement calls for lifting could be re-imposed if Iran does not live up to the terms of the deal.
