Pompeo: Iran must give ‘full account’ of past work on nukes
Pompeo lays out the conditions for any new nuclear deal with Iran.
“The deal is not the objective. The goal is to protect the American people. Any new agreement will ensure Iran doesn’t acquire a nuclear weapon,” says Pompeo.
He says the US will not renegotiate the current nuclear deal.
Iran must give “full account” to IAEA of its past work to develop nuclear warheads, says Pompeo, and cannot pursue the enrichment of uranium or plutonium.
He also says Iran must cease development of ballistic missiles, release US citizens and end its support for regional terror groups, among them Lebanon’s Hezbollah, Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
