John Bolton: Trump Should Decertify, Withdraw from Iran Nuclear Deal Entirely



John Bolton Trump Should Decertify, Withdraw from Iran Nuclear Deal Entirely

NEW YORK,  24 Sep 2017--  Former United States Ambassador to the United Nations and senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, John Bolton, says he thinks President Donald Trump should de-certify the Iran nuclear deal prior to the October 15 deadline.
“I think the president should decertify. I think he should withdraw from the deal entirely,” Bolton told Breitbart News in an exclusive interview outside Dag Hammarskjöld Plaza during the United Nations General Assembly last week.
“I think it was a disastrous agreement for the United States to make; harmful to the United States, harmful to its friends and allies, harmful to the people of Iran. The sooner we get out of it, the better,” Bolton said.
Bolton conducted the interview during a September 20 rally coordinated by the Organization of Iranian-American Communities (OIAC), and members of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK), against the visit of Iranian President Hassan Rouhani in New York.
President Trump told reporters last week he has “decided” on a plan of action, but he has not provided specific details.
Although he has twice recertified the Iran nuclear deal, his strong speech at the UNGA last week seems to signal he will not recertify next month.
Asked how concerned he was about a potential nuclear breakout if Trump decertifies, Bolton said, “I think it’s more likely that the ayatollahs are violating the deal already and will get a nuclear capability more quickly if we stay in the deal.”
Last month, Bolton penned an article in National Review, detailing the plan he drafted, at the behest of former Trump chief strategist Steve Bannon, to exit former President Barack Obama’s failed nuclear deal with Iran.

Hashemi’s statements were widely republished by media outlets affiliated with the so-called reformist faction of the Iranian regime, and pundits and personalities of this faction generally confirmed it. “The collapse of legitimacy has already happened, and only a physical collapse has not happened, and chances are high that this happens,” Hashemi said in her interview. “Mr. Rouhani talks as if he isn’t the president. Parts of these [matters] are in the jurisdiction of the government. He talks as if he is the opposition. You should be able to act! Who are you criticizing?” she said about the Iranian regime’s president’s lack of action and his comprehensive defea
