U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to outline his stance on Iran today or tomorrow amid speculation he is poised to decertify the 2015 nuclear deal.
Such a move would go against warnings from inside and outside his administration, isolating the U.S. and potentially leading to a second nuclear crisis, this time in the Middle East. Trump has labeled the accord "an embarrassment" and "the worst deal ever negotiated".
While de-certifying would not withdraw the U.S. from the deal, it would give Congress 60 days to decide whether or not to reimpose the sanctions on Iran that were suspended by it. According to a
new poll from YouGov, Americans are at odds with the president's stance with most of the public supporting the nuclear deal. The research found that
56 percent of the public approve of the agreement, of which 31 percent strongly approve and 25 percent somewhat approve.
Only 19 percent of those polled said they disapprove of it.
Broken down by party, 68 percent of Democrats support the deal while a surprisingly large 22 percent share have no opinion on the matter. A slight 51 percent majority of Republicans are also in favor of the agreement while 23 percent are against it. YouGov also found that support for the nuclear deal doesn't necessarily mean Americans like or trust Iran with 44 percent regarding the country as a U.S. enemy.
