Secy. Mattis: The President Should Consider Staying with the Iran Nuclear Deal

‘Clearly we should stay with it’

EXCERPT:

KING: “Do you believe it is in our national security interest at the present time to remain in the JCPOA. That’s a yes or no question”
MATTIS: “Yes, senator, I do. The point I would make is, if we can confirm that Iran is living by the agreement, if we can determine that this is in our best interest, then clearly we should stay with it. I believe at this point in time, absent indications to the contrary, it is something the President should consider staying with. It is still under consideration in the executive branch and a decision has not been made.”
