END OF THE IRAN DEAL
09-05-2018Attached are the remarks of US Presidfent Trump, announcing the renunciation of the agreement with Iran, concluded in 2015 by his predecessor President Obama. The text of the 2015 deal can be found earlier in ths News section. The principal reason for President Trump is to undo what his predecessor had done. It further divides the United States and adds to the distrust in the Atlantic Alliance.
Still it is important to study the remarks, especially with respect to the nature of the current Iranian regime. Concluding agreements with a regime supporting terrorism abroad and repressing its own people, is bound to be risky, as at least the European Governments might have learned from the Munich Agreement with Hitler in 1938.

The immediate post-1989 world presented itself as a new era of organised forgetting, as neither East nor West were interested in examining the prolonged period of acquiescence in absurdities.
