Trump rips Obama’s ‘stupid’ Iran deal, says former president ‘thought he could bribe them’ with billions.

TRUMP RIPS OBAMA’S IRAN DEAL, SAYS FORMER PRESIDENT “THOUGHT HE COULD BRIBE THEM” WITH BILLIONS

U.S. President Donald Trump has renewed his criticism of the Obama-era Iran nuclear agreement, describing it as a “stupid” deal and arguing that the previous administration believed economic incentives would change Iran’s behavior.

Speaking amid ongoing tensions and negotiations involving Iran, Trump claimed that the 2015 nuclear agreement gave Tehran significant financial benefits without permanently resolving concerns about its nuclear ambitions. He has long criticized the accord, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), and withdrew the United States from the agreement during his first term in office.

Trump argued that the agreement relied too heavily on sanctions relief and the release of frozen Iranian assets. According to the president, the deal failed to secure lasting guarantees that Iran would abandon its nuclear program. His comments echoed years of criticism in which he has referred to the agreement as one of the worst international deals negotiated by the United States.

The agreement was negotiated under former President Barack Obama and several world powers. Supporters of the deal argued that it placed significant restrictions on Iran’s nuclear activities and established an international inspection regime designed to prevent the development of nuclear weapons. Critics, including Trump and many Republicans, argued that it offered too much sanctions relief while allowing Iran to retain important nuclear infrastructure.

The latest comments come as the Trump administration continues discussions related to Iran’s nuclear program and regional security. Trump has recently insisted that any future agreement must differ substantially from the Obama-era framework and has said sanctions relief would not come before a final deal is reached.

The debate over the Iran deal remains one of the most significant foreign-policy disagreements between the Trump and Obama administrations, with supporters and critics continuing to argue over whether the agreement increased security or merely delayed a larger confrontation with Iran.
