John Bolton: The Obama Deal Was a Huge Mistake, There Is No Deal that I Can Imagine with Iran that America Should Accept

‘The Iranians never should have been allowed to enrich uranium’

EXCERPT:

BOLTON: "The Iranians remain determined to get nuclear weapons. The 2015 deal that Obama struck was a huge mistake. The Iranians never should have been allowed to enrich uranium. People don‘t understand that enriching uranium to reactor grade levels is 70% of the work to enriching it to weapons grade levels. And just being able to use the technology, the knowledge, gaining the familiarity with handling this incredibly toxic, corrosive, radioactive material strengthens their nuclear infrastructure and gives them a lot of potential for the future. We do not license nuclear technology to our best allies unless they pledge not to have uranium enrichment, and yet we allowed it for the Iranians. There is no deal that I can imagine with this regime in Iran that the United States should accept."
