Iran made no-nuclear weapons deal with US in 2015? About JCPOA that Trump ‘tore up’
Mint·2h ago·Neutral
What Happened
House Foreign Affairs Committee Democrats criticized Vice President JD Vance for demanding Iran commit to not building nuclear weapons, noting Tehran already made this commitment under the 2015 JCPOA agreement. The committee accused the Trump administration of terminating the deal in 2018 and dragging the United States into conflict, costing American families. Under JCPOA, Iran reaffirmed it would never seek nuclear weapons and committed to peaceful nuclear energy under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
