Ben Rhodes: If Trump Tears up Iran Nuke Deal, He’ll Be Creating a Second Nuclear Crisis

‘The Iran deal is how you avoid North Korea’

EXCERPT:

RHODES: "Well, I'd say, look at North Korea, right? The Iran deal is how you avoid North Korea. We have inspectors in Iran. We have limitations on the Iranian program so they do not have a nuclear weapon. In North Korea, you see what happens when there is no deal. They have a nuclear capability. They're testing nuclear weapons. They're testing missiles. You would prefer to not have a second nuclear crisis. And if this administration tears up the Iran deal, they will be committing one of the biggest self-inflicted wounds that I can imagine in foreign policy. Because basically they would be creating a second nuclear crisis for themselves, when frankly, the Iran deal solves that problem."
