President Trump decertified the internationally-supported Iran nuclear deal Friday but didn't walk away from it. Instead, he kicked it to Congress to determine whether to reimpose sanctions even though the International Atomic Energy Agency has verified Iran was in compliance with the deal.
The ramifications of unilaterally breaking the deal could further hurt American credibility globally, escalate tensions in the Middle East and widen our gulf with North Korea. The president's action becomes more disturbing in light of his prior withdrawal from the Paris Climate Accord and the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
