Contrast it with the JCPOA by Obama

https://www.armscontrol.org/factsheets/joint-comprehensive-p...

Key Aspects of the JCPOA: Enrichment Limits: Iran capped uranium enrichment at 3.67% for 15 years.

Centrifuge Restrictions: Reduced operating centrifuges to 5,060 IR-1 machines for 10 years.

Stockpile Restrictions: Limited enriched uranium stockpile to 300 kg for 15 years.

Facility Redesign: Redesigned the Arak heavy water reactor to prevent plutonium production and converted Fordow into a research center.

Monitoring: The IAEA receives enhanced access and monitoring capabilities.

Sanctions Relief: UN, EU, and US nuclear-related sanctions were lifted, restoring Iranian oil sales and banking access.

What an awful failure that agreement was. Iran accepted the sanctions relief and ignored the terms of the agreement.

While since Trump dropped that deal, Iran had enriched around 440kg to 60%. Nobody knows for sure where any of that is.

yep, the US fucked up by not properly ratifying the JCPOA

tearing it up and pissing all over it led directly to this quagmire
