Trump: Iran ‘aggression has only increased’ since nuclear deal

Trump accuses Iran of stepping up its “aggression” after signing a nuclear accord in 2015, saying Tehran took advantage of a lifting of sanctions to fund a missile program.

“In the years since the deal was signed, Iran’s aggression only increased,” Trump says in a speech at the United Nations Security Council.

“The regime used new funds from the deal to support terrorism, build nuclear capable missiles, and foment chaos,” he says.

The United States has been steadily reimposing sanctions against Iran in recent months and Trump says more are on the way.

“All US nuclear-related sanctions will be in full force by early November,” he says.
