00:00President Donald Trump said on Monday he believed a nuclear deal the U.S. is currently negotiating
00:06with Iran will be better than a 2015 international agreement to curb Tehran's nuclear program.
00:13He said the deal the United States is negotiating with Iran would be far better than the Joint
00:18Comprehensive Plan of Action in response to concerns from Democrats and nuclear experts
00:24that the talks were being rushed.
00:26During his first White House term, Trump in 2018 withdrew from the JCPOA agreed to by
00:32Iran, the United States, and world powers calling it the worst deal ever.
00:38The United States and Israel began attacking Iran more than seven weeks ago in a conflict
00:43that Trump has said aims to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon.
00:48With a two-week ceasefire set to expire in the coming days, prospects for a second round
00:53of talks between the U.S. and Iran in Pakistan were not clear.
00:58However, it is currently unclear what kind of deal could be credibly agreed to by the United
01:03States and Iran in a short amount of time, as the 2015 agreement, which also involved France,
01:09Germany, China, Britain, and Russia, took two years to negotiate and involved some 200 specialists
01:15batting nuclear physics, sanctions, finance, and law.
