Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) has again come under fire this time for placing blame on President Donald Trump after Iran threatened to breach a limit on uranium stockpiles that would violate a multinational nuclear deal.
The United States withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal in 2018, while reimposing stringent economic sanctions that were previously lifted after the agreement was signed. The deal, negotiated by the Obama administration in 2015, was supposed to end Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for easing sanctions that would provide Iran with an estimated $50 billion to $150 billion in relief.
