Trump decision a 'serious mistake'

Says Obama as world vows to save Iran nuke deal

AGENCIES
Former US President Barack Obama has criticised President Donald Trump's decision to withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal, struck during Obama's presidency, as 'a serious mistake'.
Defying his European allies. Trump on Tuesday vowed to reimpose crippling sanctions on Tehran and warning that Iranians deserve a better government.
"1 believe that the decision to put the JCPOA at risk
without any Iranian violation of the deal is a serious mistake," Obama said in a statement, referring to the acronym for the agreement worked out by the United States, five otherworld powers and Iran.
Since leaving office in January 2017, Obama, a Democrat, has largely remained on the sidelines of the political debate, although he has criticized his Republican successor's efforts to undo some of his major policy achievements.
He has condemned Trump for pulling out of the Paris climate accord and for ending a program that shielded from deportation immigrants brought to the United States illegally as children. He also spoke out against Trump's effort to unravel the Obamacare healthcare program.Obama said the Iran agreement significantly rolled back Tehran's nuclear program and was a model for a possible deal Trump hopes to negotiate with North Korea to eliminate Pyongyang's nuclear weapons.
"That is why today's announcement is so misguided," Obama said.
"Walking away from the JCPOA turns our back on America's closest allies, and an agreement that our country's leading diplomats, scientists, and intelligence professionals negotiated," he said.
European powers, Russia and key trading power China vowed to save the accord and protect companies operatingin the country.
Trump's move risks overturning years of diplomacy, worsening instability in the Middle East and threatens foreign companies' business in Iran worth billions of dollars.
Iran reacted furiously to Trump's decision, with lawmakers burning a
US flag and chanting "Death to America” in the Iranian parliament. But its regional rivals Saudi Arabia and Israel applauded the US move.
Chancellor Angela Merkel yesterday vowed that Germany, France and Britain would "do everything" to ensure that Iran remains in the landmark 2015 nuclear deal.
"We will remain committed to this agreement and will do everything to ensure that Iran complies with the deal," Merkel said, adding that Berlin had made the decision jointly with Paris and London.
The foreign ministers of France, Britain and Germany will meet Iranian representatives next Monday "to consider the entire situation," French Foreign Minister Le Drian told RTL radio.
Trump's advisor John Bolton said earlier that European firms doing business in Iran now have a six month deadline to wind up investments or risk US sanctions.
